Day 61 - St. Anthony, Newfoundland

It is another travel day to St. Anthony on this Monday, July 30th.  Wow, the month is just about over!  Not too much happens while we are going from Point A to Point B but we still try to do a little sightseeing.  We drove 235 miles on one road - all the way.  Couldn't get lost.  No animals were seen today along the road - darn!!


We traveled along the Gulf of the St. Lawrence so we saw a lot of typical fishing villages and docks for their boats - small or large.  The water was very calm again today.  If there was a whale out there, we would have certainly seen them.  We stopped at the Arches Provincial Park and did a little walking around just to stretch.  Some day that arch will no longer be standing - how sad.




We stopped at a museum in Port au Choix that told about the history of the Maritime Archaic Indians.  It was quite interesting.  Bottom left is a picture of what they thought they would look like.  We then stopped at Port Richie to see the Lighthouse where we eventually sat back and enjoyed the view of the gulf and even a couple whales. 




Picture of the Day!!

Anthony, my Dad's name, is special to me.   His spirit would be sailing if he was on this trip with us.

God Love him!
