AROUND THE ROCK IN A BAD MOOD, is a wonderful collection of stories and photos from the authors journey of 3000 km sea kayaking adventure around the coastline of Newfoundland. "The weather was brutal but the hospitality fantastic!"

Bernie Howgate jumped into the deep end of travel in 1980, stretching a two-month cycling vacation into an eight-year round the world cycling odyssey which led to his first book 'Tales of a Travelling Man.'

He had only been back in Canada for two years when he took off on another trip, cycling from Victoria, B.C. to St John's Nfld. on a Pakistani rickshaw which became the basis of his book entitled 'Newfie or Bust', and now re-titled to Thunder Road. 

The first time he laced on snowshoes and paddled the open seas, was during an eight-month trip up the rugged Atlantic coastline of Labrador. This trip also became the basis of his most popular book to date, Journey Through Labrador.

He has also soloed 500 kilometers across Labrador's 'height of the land' in winter, and kayaked 2500 kilometers from Toronto, down the St-Lawrence River to Goose Bay, Labrador, which is the basis of his latest book entitled ' A Lazy Day in Summer'. 

DID YOU KNOW? Bernie has often be seen and heard on television and radio and has guested on such popular programs as the Dini Petty Show, What on Earth, The West Coasters, Land and Sea, and Canada A.M.
