Stephenville

We left Grand Falls-Windsor Saturday morning and travelled to Stephenville, on the west coast of the island.  We decided to spend one more day looking around the coast.  After parking the RVs for Saturday night, we took the day Sunday to break free of them and see what was around.

Bunch of travellers.  You’d think we’d be sick of this by now.  But we travelled out to Cape St. George because someone told me (I can’t remember who at the moment) told me we must go to Cape St. George.  It’s beautiful.  We thought, sure...another lighthouse.

And just when you think we’ve seen the most beautiful spots, another one pops up!  Wow!

I guess the person who told me about this wasn’t lying.  It really was gorgeous.

Right at that cape, there was a student baking bread in an outdoor “oven”, and you can taste the bread for a donation.  Why not?  It was lunch time and we were getting hungry.  Proper ting to do.

We drove around to the north side of the cape in a little place called Mainland.  Colourful little houses and stuff on the lawn.

We stopped at this place called Tea by the Sea for some lunch.  Beautiful spot in a heritage building.  And EVERYwhere has turkey soup, pea soup, and seafood chowder.

We tried to go out the spit of land to the north, but we came to nothing but gravel road for about 15-20 km, so decided to turn around and go back.  Fun day though.
