Self-care ... immerse in nature ...

 Last August I once again took a trip to Newfoundland. It was a time I scheduled for me to heal. I was grieving the death of my mom and with my busy schedule (full time work/school) had not had the time I needed to take it all in. So off to Newfoundland I went.

There is something about Newfoundland that speaks to me. This time I took the 16 hour long ferry to Argentia to begin exploring the Avalon section - Bottom yellow section.


I was so excited to finally arrive.


 I spent my first night in La Manche Provincial Park. What a gorgeous place. 


I have not been disappointed with any provincial or federal parks that I've stayed in. I cannot say the same for private camping sites, which I tend to stay away from as much as possible.

Had my first meal at the Riverside Restaurant & Lounge in Cape Boyle. OMG, the fresh mussels were to die for.


And I enjoyed my very first Iceberg beer from Quidi Vidi Brewery.


OMG, soooo good and refreshing. It's actually made with Iceberg water. I did buy a case of 12 to bring home. In hindsight ... I should have bought more to share. For the record, I still have two bottle left ... keeping them for a special occasion ;)

To be continued ....

Thanks for stopping by. Cheers!

I’m sorry to hear your mother has passed away. ❤️‍🩹 Busy or not, it seems that grief will have its way. Your travels sound like a positive experience. Perhaps you’ll call that part of the world home one day.
