July 23-St John's

We took it a bit easy today.  The weather was glorious again, so we did some laundry and even hung some stuff up to dry by the trailer.  We cleaned the truck, the trailer, and Devon spent some time riding his bike around the campground with some kids he met, while we visited with their parents.  A perfect morning.  Later on in the day, we took a drive to Cape Spear, and hiked up the hill to enjoy the view and see the buildings.  Cape Spear is the most easterly point of land in North America, so we had to go as far east as the fencing would allow, and saw a few whales and birds for good measure. 




Underground bunkers sealed off for safety-from WWII

Another beautiful path to explore

The trappings of a lighthouse keeper-kids had to help haul water.

 We toured around town, driving on the most windey bendy roads I have ever seen.  St John's has a reason for being known as one of the least navigable cities ever in existence! (50 km)
