| Sparky at Cape Spear NL |
July 18th: Cape Spear, the eastern edge of Canada is located just a short drive from St. John's Newfoundland. Sparky and I visited there, and he posed for a photo!

And for my hiking, trekking friends. The East Coast Trail is a wilderness pathway that passes through more than 30 communities in Newfoundland, for a distance of 336 kilometres, or 209 miles. National Geographic named it one of the best adventure destinations in 2012.

Then we roamed around the St. John's harbour entrance that was once protected by the now defunct Fort Amherst.

After dinner, I took the Fuzz-butt for an evening stroll along the summertime-only pedestrian mall located just two blocks from our hotel. The restaurants on Water Street were busy, but I was in bed and asleep far too early to hear the live music playing various venues on nearby George Street.

We had an early morning departure because we were traveling from St. John's to the southern tip of the Burin Peninsula, a six-hour drive.
Cheers Lynda and Fuzz-butt
