Spending this week visiting a friend in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Much cooler here than in Nova Scotia.
Yesterday we made a day trip to Trinity – a costal village about three hours from St. John’s. Left early in the morning, got back home after midnight. A lovely day in between.
Trinity is a well-kept heritage site, at the same time an active community of maybe 200. On this clear, sunny day it was welcoming – lovely old churches:
People taking advantage of the weather to get a bit of outdoor work done:
We took a side trip around the bay to the lighthouse and watched whales chasing caplin (which are running this week):
The place is rugged with beautiful rock spires:
We stopped for a few moments to enjoy the peaceful quiet:
Went to the theatre at the playhouse in the evening to see Kevin Major’s play: No Man’s Land:
And on our drive home we narrowly missed hitting moose twice!
A great adventure.
Oh, Judith, thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures and commentary. I am looking forward to my first trip there, hopefully next summer or fall. karen
