Another day in Gros Morne

This park offers ranger talks and tours at many different sites.  Today it was Bonnie, giving a talk at the lighthouse.

Bonnie is from the tiny village of Sally's Cove.  She thought it was a wonderful place to grow up.  The population is now very small, though it still exists as a fishing village.  Bonnie lives in a different, much larger village now and is married to a man from Costa Rica!  Anyway, she gave a nice talk about the families that lived in and ran the lighthouses.

The community around the lighthouse no longer exists.

We took a walk around the lighthouse and down to the water.

After the tour we drove a bit to do a walk which turned out to be a hike.  We thought we were doing an easy hike called Berry Pond.  Well we took the first parking lot instead of the second and ended up on a hike called Berry Hill.  And we know what "hill" means.

Many steps up.

And even more steps.

We learned this was a "moderate" hike.  Tired legs told us that.

This was what we saw from the top.

By enlarging a little, we can even see our button down there in the parking lot.  Good to know the roof is in good condition.









We had hoped to see the Anchors Aweigh show in town tonight.  But it was sold out.  So a trip to the fish processing plant and fresh cod for dinner.  A lovely sunny day;  dare I say a bit too warm?  Sat outside in the sun and then shade for the rest of the afternoon.
