Catch up... Newfoundland
Posted by Unknown on Thursday 18 July 2013.Here are some pictures from when we went to Newfoundland back in May.
Stunning views as we took the scenic route up Signal Hill
Turned out taking bikes was a bad idea! It was a long walk full of steps and uneven ground. Luckily Amy, Mike and I had decided not to rent bikes!
Views around St. John's
The conference social event full of authentic Newfoundland music
We had different coloured scarves to show which group we were with
After the conference was over we spent the day with Manjusha and Nikil and went on a long walk. We were so worn out afterwards and desperately looking for a place to stop and refuel. Then we found a little cafe called Gracie Joe's which was just what we needed. And after that we realized we were in fact just round the corner from our hotel after all!
Views as we were driving around Newfoundland
This is the view from our table
They grow their own vegetables in the soil just beyond the tables, they have their own goats for milk and chicken for eggs on the grass beyond that. If you order a salad they go outside and pick the vegetables right in front of you! We even saw one of the staff carrying pails of milk back into the restaurant.
The food was SO good! For dessert I have blueberry creme brulee and it was delicious. We actually came back here for lunch the next day and I had the creme brulee again!
Mike had a brownie with maple walnut ice cream which was also very good!
