If you go to L�Anse aux Meadows (and I do recommend this!), be prepared for
lots of bugs.  I was there in early July once and never saw so many
mosquitoes and black flies in my life.  The night we arrived, it was windy
and we didn�t realize what was in store for us.  In those days we were
tenting, and in the morning when we woke up, the tent screens were covered
with bugs waiting for us to emerge.  Even the strongest bug repellent only
lasted about 5 minutes.  My younger daughter was so badly bitten we had to
seek medical help.  Does anyone know if the bug are still bad there this
time of year?
