Self-care ... immersed in nature

 While in St Luniere cricket, I relaxed ... I even let my hair down .... the vacation look! LOL

Bought some yarn and a book while in Newfoundland and did a lot of knitting. Finished two projects during my stay.

And this pattern ... a gift for my dad.

I was also able to enjoy a daily latte and my favourite treat at Cafe Nymphe - The Dark Tickle Company ... A carrot and partridge berry cake .... OMG .... Yummy! I'd go back just for a piece of cake! lol

My ride home ... what a beauty!

I would recommend visiting Newfoundland. It is such a beautiful and serene place. I will leave you with the sound of the Atlantic ocean ... Enjoy!

Take Care ... and thanks for stopping by. Cheers!

Self-care .... Immersed in Nature

 Once I had explored the intended area, I went back to a familiar place Gros Norme National Park, a place I could rest. I enjoyed long walks on the beach ... in the rain

There were quite enjoyable, but there's only so much walking one can do in the rain ... that is .... until the humidity gets in your bones. I thought perhaps I would catch the ferry and leisurely head back home. However, there was no room on the ferry. So I did the next best thing and headed to Newfoundland's most northern part, back to where the Vikings landed.

Leifur Eiriksson, a viking settler of Newfoundland.

I landed in Luniere-Griquet, a place where I felt at peace. There was also an amazing restaurant there ... The Daily Catch ... delish!

I stayed at the Pistolet Bay Provincial Park.  I made myself at home ... it was quite cozy ... so peaceful.

Thanks for stopping by ....

Self-care .... immersed in nature

 I left the Eastern region and headed towards the Central region.

As you can imagine ... I did a lot of driving. Newfoundland is huge .... but oh so beautiful.

I camped a few days at Terra Nova National Park. It was wonderful to sit and enjoy nature while knitting. I bought some Briggs & Little yarn that had been hand dyed and starting working on a hat ... a Newfoundland souvenir.

A girl could get used to this life. I wrote a bit on another post about my camping set up. I kind of like the simplicity of it. A good coffee in the morning is all I ask for! ;)

From Terra Nova National Park I visited the Long Point light house.

Quite a unique place. Unfortunately, the museum was closed.

The view from Crow Head was beautiful.

Exploring is such a treat for me. I'm not one to plan much ... I sort of like the surprise of finding unique places.  

I left Terra Nova National Park and headed for Dildo Run Provincial park. Yes, there is a town called Dildo.

 They have this amazing brewery ... Dildo Brewing Co. Had a wonderful meal there. Yes, I paid close attention to where I would eat. 

A fun activity I took on was to explore various local breweries, enjoying their cuisine and products. My favourite son in law enjoys a local beer, so it was a great way for me to collect samples from various breweries that he could enjoy with family and friends. On my first trip I only visited one .... on this trip my goal was to visit as many local breweries as possible as well as enjoy as many wonderful meals. 

To be continued ...

Thanks for stopping by ... Cheers!
