BBC TV series Race Across the World, reached its thrilling conclusion this week with best friends Cathie and Tricia reaching the final checkpoint and claiming the £20,000 cash prize. The best friend team were the first to arrive at the Lighthouse on Cape Spear. This is Canada’s easternmost province and is closer to Ireland (in Europe) than it is to Vancouver on Canada's west coast! Canada covers a huge area of land and is part of the continent North America. It is where the world’s largest population of humpback whales pays a call every year to feast in the rich waters offshore. What other wildlife can you see there?
