The coast of Canada’s Newfoundland is commonly called "Iceberg Alley." Between May and July, hundreds of icebergs float through these waters. But one iceberg arrived a bit earlier than usual this year. It floated extremely close to the coast. The iceberg is huge. Experts say it is close to the same size as the iceberg that the Titanic struck in 1912.Photographs and stories about the Ferryland iceberg quickly spread on the Internet and social media. The towering piece of ice made news around the world.
Newspapers wrote stories about how to travel to Ferryland, a fishing village with a population of 500 people. Visitors began arriving in Ferryland more than a month before the area’s tourist season begins. Roads filled with cars, as tourists tried to take the perfect picture of the iceberg. Maxine Dunne owns a small inn in Ferryland. She told National Public Radio that she can see the huge iceberg clearly from her window.The iceberg has sat near the coast of Ferryland for almost 10 days. But the Canadian Press reported Monday that ocean currents may finally be slowly pushing the world-famous piece of ice out to sea.
