Terra Nova - Cap Malady Head




Spectacular view from the lookout at the end of the Malady Head trail. The trail is steep but worth the effort! I have taken hundreds of photos and I am working on a series of drawings and sketches.

Une vue magnifique du point d'observation au but de la randonnée du Cap Malady.  Le sentier est escarpé mais il vaut l'effort! J'ai pris des centaines de photos et je travaille une série de dessin et de croquis.

St. John's NL

View of the Narrows, St. John's harbour
Vue du passage, port de St. John

Shore leave; à terre!

Tourist shot. Cliché touristique.

Row houses climb the hill. Les maisons en rangées montent la colline.

Clourful shops; des boutiques vives.

Freak Lunchbox!  Façade formidable!
While I have enjoyed my short visit to downtown St. John's, it is in the less developed lands that I find inspiration!  The atmosphere is relaxed, the people are friendly.  While it rains and is foggy, the sun does come out from time to time, all on the same day!  This morning was dark and cloudy. The rain set in around noon-time. Then the sky cleared in the early evening. Tomorrow is shopping day. I need to buy rubber boots for walking some of the trails in Terra Nova Park. My hiking boots took 48 hours to dry out after my most recent trek through a forest.

Terra Nova - Sentier Mill Cove Trail


Climb to the top to see the view!  Monte au sommet de la colline pour la belle vue!

Rain over the town of Trayton. La pluie au-dessus la ville de Trayton.

This new trail leads through a young forest to boulders and the round hilltop overlooking Mill Cove. I decided to climb down and go back to my cabin when I could see the rain in the distance.

Ce nouveau sentier mène à travers une jeune forêt aux rochers et au sommet rond de la colline avec vue de l'anse Mill. J'ai décidé de retourner à ma cabane quand je voyais la pluie sur l'horizon.
