We woke up to a lot of wind and fog this morning. We had planned on taking the ferry to Bell Island but decided it might not be the best thing to do. Instead, we spent some time planning our drive home and doing a few errands. I can't figure out which button I'm suppose to push so the refrigerator will restock itself.

As the weatherman predicted the sun did come out and though the wind still blew it was warm. Turned into a beautiful afternoon, so we decided to take a drive up the coast from Holyrood to Portugal Cove (where you catch the ferry to Bell Island). This was one area we hadn't explored yet. I was surprised to see how far metropolitan St. John's has expanded. There were lots of new sub-divisions and new roads.

We stopped at Topsail Beach and went for a walk. Guess what we found??? yup a couple of geocaches.

Portugal Cove turned out to be the prettiest spot on the drive. There was a small waterfall the said of the road.

Some interesting houses on a cliff.

and of course boats and the ferry dock.

We also found a little restaurant that had really good fish and chips.
