Dam Fishers Ice cubes and Orca BI-Coastal

Today finds us in Trinity East. The last few days we have stayed where cell phone coverage was a bonus so forget about WiFi. On July 4th we were in Bishop's Falls. We went for a little exploratory evening drive around as the day time temperature was 34 degrees and the humidity was about 90%. We found the falls and a down stream from the falls there were about 40 people fishing.

Hydro electric to the right of the falls

Only one section of the river

We moved on to Twillingate which is the "Iceberg Capitol of The world". We met back up with Del and Gloria and spent three days checking things out.

View from our campsite.

The highlight of our time here was the boat tour with "The Icebergman." It was a 2 hour tour of the Icebergs and hopefully a whale or two. The Icebergman (Cecile) was a happy guy as there were lots of bergs to choose from. Last season they had 3 Icebergs the whole season and when we left the bay there were about 35 Icebergs as big as B.C. Place or bigger within a 3 mile radius. 

This one ran aground in 275 feet of water

Let the melting begin

And these were Small ones.

We were about half way through our tour when the captain got a cell call and we changed directions and headed out to sea. After about 10 minutes we could see the first dorsal fins and for the next 30 minutes we followed a pod of about 8 Orcas around. Yup we are now Bi-Coastal as we have seen both Pacific and Atlantic Orcas.

Orcas and Icebergs........May never see that again

Family affair.

Look at me I can make rainbows!!

The weather was great, the scenery was superb and the company fantastic or as my grandfather use to say "Wonder what the poor people are doing." 

We left Twillingate and spent two nights in the Terra Nova National park. We will try and update you when WiFi is available next. We hope you are all happy and healthy and thanks for reading our ramblings.
