Great video and summary. Most people don’t get to see that much on their trips so you did a lot. I would say 1 day is too little in St. John’s. But no more than a week. Only 3 meals (usually) in a day and St. John’s is a foodie town so that what I would say you might have missed out on.

Looks like you have a great trip to Newfoundland. Welcome to the island. The Tragically Hip loved Mistaken Point enough to include it in the song Fly. Along that route, you passed Saint Vincent's where the whales come right close to the shore in June. The Puffins do come across the gap fairly often. If you're staying in the area, keep trying! Pack a picnic and walk out to Cable John Cove (just past Spillars Cove near Bonavista). Cable John Cove is one of my favourite spots in Newfoundland. Have your lunch and boil up a coffee. It's very chill. For those that enjoy local restaurants and scenery, be sure to stop into Trinity, and Old Bonaventure along this route. Great job moose spotting! If you come back to St. John's I'll buy you a beer and share some tips.

@joakimnorrby 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Robert, You are definitely right about it needs a little more patience and time spotting puffins. In hindsight we should have stayed in the area a little longer and waited for the wind to settle. It would be a great experience to go back and see the icebergs and whales. Mistaken Point was a very humbling experience, when you are surrounded in a landscape that is so old. I am actually listening to the Tragically Hips song as I am writing this. Had an idea some time ago to listen to all their albums for a youtube video in my project to understand Canadian culture, but realized it wouldnt be much of a visual experience :) I will definitely take you up on that offer next time I am in St. John's! Thank you for all your tips and watching my video. Wish you a great day.

Newfoundland is back to basics. The basics of life, emotion, responsibilities, nature, friendships. Its nice to see newly arrived immigrants from Africa, Eastern Europe and the Middle East enjoy the simplicity of Newfoundland. To be accepted for who they are and to be part of a warm and peaceful community. It does not have the wealth or international flair of Vancouver, Boston or New York. In fact that is what makes it so inviting.

I live 20 minutes outside of Clarenville, so that means 3 hour drive to St.Johns - gas has gotten so expensive.

If you have the time, absolutely. I think flying in to St. John's (which is the cheapest airport to get to) and then making your way west is a great way to experience the province.

Gros Morne is must visit, so is bell island and the mines. dildo is heavily overrated. Splash n putt is the only big amusement park on the island. Coming from a Native. Other than that, you're literally on a big rock in the middle of the ocean, so expect winds, fog, and on and off rain in some areas

Bell Island is so majestic, its a pity I missed that one. Gives me another reason to come back. For a Swede, the amount of fog is in itself an experience, lol

I love Newfoundland and the people there. Their sense of humor is amazing. Look at name of some of their towns, Dildo, Come by Chance, Spread Eagle, Mistaken Point. Are you kidding? Where else but Newfoundland one can find those names. Super friendly place. Just remember 9/11.
