A Few Last Snaps From Newfie

Just the remaining shots I didn't squeeze into another post somewhere! 

I can't wait to return to this place on day!

A Stroll Up Fort Amherst

It had been raining off & on, but it was my last day in St Johns, and I wanted to walk up to the old lighthouse & see the view, so I bundled up well and off I went! 

The lighthouse is under construction right now, so I didn't really take many photos of it, or the houses around it, oops, oversight! 

However, I thought I would share the photos I did take, as stormy weather shots have such a intriguing mood about them.

Railway Coastal Museum

I am pleased I drove by this little place & thought, "Hey I should stop in."

It really had a lot of history about not just transportation across the island, but just Newfoundland in general. 

The admission is cheap & if you like to read, I recommend checking this museum out.

Cape Spear

The most easterly point in Canada that has not one lighthouse, but two! 

One being the original historic one, and the other being a "newer" building.

Both are lovely to look at & photograph.

Honestly, I feel like every post I am saying "what a view", but I have to say it about this place too: "What a view!" 

Wind is ever present in Newfie, but the sun was shining so that helped considerably on this particular morning. 

I am glad I went earlier on in the day as there were less people exploring the area and I was able to get photographs without crazy tourists and hikiers marring them. HAHA

And I even snapped a few amusing selfies while at the very "end" of Canada, just for you.
Proof I actually was there and all that.
