Day trip to Cape Norman

 

Someday...

Cool again today, it finally got up to 9C by mid-afternoon. Nice though, not as windy at first. We're prepared for this kind of weather so we're still out and about. Any rain we've had has come overnight, very convenient.

We decided to head north to Cape Norman today, as far north as the road goes here. There's a lighthouse there, not sure what else. Our waxed cotton coats were welcome today, they provide good wind protection.


Rugged terrain

 
Lovely tiny wildflowers though, even here


More icebergs slipped by, along the Labrador coastline. We think the closer white specs in the water were Eider ducks:

We counted 10 icebergs along there at one point

A pretty little Nfld community with friendly people and a community-maintained hiking trail along the shore. They were rightly proud of the trail and pleased to welcome us to use it:



Still a brisk wind today
