We have found some of the best places to eat and hike just wandering around small towns in Newfoundland.  Today we had lunch in a small town called Happy Adventure at the Happy Adventure Inn the view is amazing and so was the food.

Butter Pot Provincial Park is a huge park with nice camping spots but only parts of the park have cell service and there isn’t water or power at any of the sites.

After a short walk,Timber Cove Island provides a great opportunity for whale watching

Ferryland peninsula a drive down a single lane dirt road and a 25 minute walk gets you to the lighthouse, these pictures are from the field you park in.

The Cabot Tower's cornerstone was laid on 23 June 1897 to mark the 400th anniversary of John Cabot's North American Landfall and the 60th year of Queen Victoria's reign. The building was completed in 1900, financed in I part by private donations.

Just fantastic pictures!  Thank you for sharing.  How long are/were you in Newfoundland if you don't mind me asking?  Would a couple of weeks be enough time in your opinion?

We are leaving Newfoundland in a couple days.  We will have been here for 55 days.  You could see two or three areas of Newfoundland in 2 weeks such as Gros Morne, Twillingate area and Bonavista peninsula. I would recommend more time if you can do it.  Lots of different factors would determine how much time you need, like what you enjoy doing and seeing, how much driving you want to do each day and how much of Newfoundland you want to see.

@Sully:  How's the Q7 behaving?  We're interested in them as another TV.

After 6k of towing, I am pleased with the Q7.  Would definitely recommend getting air shocks and also like the rear wheel steering, keeps the trailer almost perfectly in the car’s tracks.  I would also recommend getting mud flaps, we added them a week ago and they really reduce stuff hitting the trailer.  The biggest downside is limited storage space.

Barachois Pond Provincial Park, morning view 30 feet from our camp site, this was one of my favorite Provincial Parks in Newfoundland.  This is a huge park with many beautiful sites with lake views or a secluded spot in the woods.
