Now on the northern peninsula of Newfoundland, we visited L’Anse aux Meadows, the 1000 year old Viking encampment and site of the first European contact with North America. A Viking reenacter discusses the colour and use of a Viking shield. There are 3 other videos in this series – be sure to check them out as well.

amazing! : )
that's awesome would love to go there with my son
I live for places like this: learning how these people lived in every aspect of their lives and how they thought of life and death. This place must have been magical for you two! Do you find places like this in which you learn about people long ago the highlight of your journey or is there some other aspect that draws you to the road?
LOVE Viking history!
Thank you for that video!
