Bonavista, Newfoundland

Our wonderful B & B, last night and tonight




After bacon and pancakes we set off to do the Skerwink Trail - starts out in the woods



Shortly, we had two options cliffs or inland


We went for the cliffs




Step back from the edge


Lots of steps


Board walks

Great views




And more stairs


More cliffs




Looking back at where we came along the cliffs

More climbing


Back to the flats


Awesome hike!

Next was out to Cape Bonavista to see the lighthouse and puffins


Back to Bonavista - lunch at Neil's Yard

Cute spot, over looking the water


Time for more puffins, out to Elliston





We walked out on the peninsula to see the puffins

Elliston is the Root Cellar Capital of the World!



Last walk out to the edge

Called it a day - whew.

Tomorrow we start our drive to Gros Morne National Park, splitting the driving by stopping overnight in Gander, NL.

St. John's, NL to Bonavista, NL

Left St. John's for Bonavista today - stopping at Trinity for lunch at the Trinity Mercantile and a walk around the town







Short walk on the Gun Hill trail

Then we headed out to find Puffins








Interesting trail to the puffin viewing site and the fog was rolling in




Puffins were on the adjacent island
