I’ve been way up to the wonderful province of Newfoundland and Labrador twice and both times were amazing. If you have the opportunity to visit this gorgeous rugged place populated with extremely hardy and friendly people, don’t hesitate –just go! For myself, I look forward to my next trip there, exploring quaint outports and inhaling into my soul more if its innumerable beautiful vistas. From my last trip, here are a few images that I took along the coast near St. John’s and about 200 miles further northeast on the Bonavista Peninsula around the picturesque villages of Trinity East and Port Rexton, both of which sit on Trinity Bay across from the Avalon Peninsula.

- Trinity’s Rocky Shore
- Village Near St. John’s
- A Peaceful Inlet
- Near the Skerwink Trail, Port Rexton
- Lots of Puffins
Gord and I vacationed in St. John’s last summer. Great place!
Yes, what a cool and inviting place.
Beautiful pictures!
I’ve traveled through Canada, but without much time to explore. This blog is causing me to add “explore Canada” to my list. Thanks!

Dan, yes, Canada is a terrific place that, even with its share of problems (which is true of just about any place), is well worth exploring.
I really like your No Facilities site, by the way. Spot on with many of your well written observations.

This must indeed be a wonderful region.
I have only made it to Saguenay….
The picture of the fishing house!
I wish I could stay there…get away from it all.
Being around such beauty is good for the soul.
Great photos. I love the first one especially.
Thanks so much! Newfoundland is a gorgeous place!
This brings back memories. When I was in the US Navy I was stationed in Argentia Newfoundland for 3 1/2 years. Loved it. Spent a lot of time wandering about the island. Would love to go back. I didn’t have the best camera the last time I was up there.
Sounds like you put your time to good use!
