Newfoundland & Labrador
Gargantuan icebergs glint in the summer sun out on the rippling bay. As you snap some photos, a man loading up a dinghy asks if you want to take a closer look at the icy giants. It’s no trouble, he insists, he’s on his way out anyway. The air feels noticeably cooler as you approach the oceanliner-sized floating glacier.
Your new friend scoops up a floating chunk of ice in a fishnet. He opens his cooler, breaks off a piece of the “bergie bit” and offers you a drink chilled with a two-thousand-year-old ice cube.
You wonder if the Vikings who came here over a thousand years ago, used the same technique?
