St. Anthony

St. Anthony's - Newfoundland
13th July 2014, we enter St. Anthony's harbour, unknowingly this was not to be our one and only entrance to the harbour !!!! More later !!!
Just below Cape Bauld on the north east peninsula of Newfoundland, St. Anthony, is a very important bustling modern fishing town with a population of 3,500. The airport is 60 kilometers away, with daily flights to St. Johns.
L'Anse aux Meadows is about a 30 minute drive away, the earliest / original Viking setlement in North America.
The harbour from the boat at anchor. I know i've said this before, but, the people in this region are just brilliant. Walking in the town we have been stopped by passing cars asking us if we need a lift anywhere or if they can do anything for us...........so friendly, just brilliant.

We met the sister boat to this in Baddeck, "Shear Madness" owned by Bradley and Kathy a Nordhaven 72. This is another called "Adventure" owned by Bradley & Lorraine. They very kindly asked us over for a few sherbets...............beer and wine !!!!! mmmmmmmm
This inside of this boat is amazing.
