June 23,2015. Made it to St. John's, NL

Drove through the Terra Nove National Park. Chose not to drive to the Bonavista Peninsula to see the beaches. Made it to St. John's, NL. Drove around a bit. Went to Signal Hill.  Drove around some more. Found a campsite at Pippy Park. 


It was cold and very windy.  I thought that I would get blown off the hill.

Signal Hill.


Looking down on St. John's from Signal Hill. 




I was in a snow suit and this man was running in his shorts.



Construction crew was working on the roof.

It was a very tight squeeze.



Planes were flying over head.  It was so windy they had to lean into the wind.



A boat coming into harbor was being tossed here and thro in the rough sea.



The gunnery down hill from SignalHill 

In the far distance is Cape Spear which we visited 1 or 2 days later.  It is the most easterly point in North America.  Pictures from that site to follow. 

Walking around the hill.  Did I Say it was windy??



John in cloud nine. 



The fog rolled in and couldn't see the tower.
