This is around a place called "Signal hill" Basically its a lookout , and from here you can see the ENTIRE bay. There are hundreds of canons spread around, including down the steep hillside. If anybody came in to attack, we saw them first and attacked first. Pretty awesome setup@ dont mess with newfies!

Love the lighthouse :thumbs up

Someday we hope to drive there as well, a friend of ours who moved back there has offered us his house to stay in when we do get there. Right now I will settle for living in the new capital of Newfoundland....Fort McMurray :laughing:.

I was hoping to get to Nfld this summer, but we didn't have time. One year we will make it out there to visit the beauty it has to offer.

CearaQC September 2nd, 2009 08:07 AM

Your fave pic is also my fave pic. Very beautiful!

Well geez, if all of you are planning to go to Newfoundland, then you should come to Gaspe first! hehe

Bearsmom September 2nd, 2009 08:40 AM

Those pictures are gorgeous....I've already told dh that when we're retired, that's one of the first places we're visiting! And PEI. And Nova Scotia. And. And. And.

Beautiful pics, Babymamma. You convinced me, I have to visit:D

I've been to Newfoundland numerous times, absolutely love it there. Trying to plan a diving trip there for next summer. Easily one of my favourite places to visit.
