Scenery, Colours, Silly Birds and Silly People

Today's travels take us to Cape Bonavista to enjoy the views from the lighthouse and to visit the Ryan Premises, a national historic site dedicated to the merchant side of Newfoundlands fisheries.


Views from the point of Cape Bonavista can include whales... 

...  and Puffins....  

...  not to mention some spectacular Seascapes.

For my fish guts friends ...
An explanation for lyric "Capelin corpses neatly laid on flakes of black spruce boughs". This photo depicts a "flake" made of black spruce boughs upon which salted cod was laid to dry before shipping. 

Bonavista is the stereotypical Newfoundland fishing village. Beautiful.

After lunch in Trinity", we head to the gift shop where Gary models his next winter hat.

Trinity provides some of those picturesque postcard shots

Note the Newfoundland/Labrador flag proudly flying in the centre of this shot

Lil often comments that we don't take enough people shots.

Another "nice people" shot...
