Sparky's Epic Adventure Across North America (Pilley's Island, Triton, and Brighton)

July 7th: This is our last day in the charming Ocean Breeze cottage in Springdale Newfoundland, but I decided that we should go on an iceberg hunt in the nearby coves. The three icebergs that are trapped in Hall's Bay, the narrow inlet where Springdale is located, have drifted too far away for good photos.

On Pilley's Island Newfoundland

Pilley's Island is about an hour's drive from Springdale, and closer to the open ocean. It looks promising.

The Sparkinator and I head off, towards the Trans Canada Highway, then take the #380 toward Robert's Arm, and onto Pilley's Island via the causeway. I hunted around in Triton, and Brighton, looking for ghosty white shapes. 

Nothing. 


The Bumblebee Bight Inn and Brewery

After a quick stop at the local craft brewery, the Bumbee Bight Inn and Brewery to purchase one of their ales, we returned to Springdale for a late lunch at our cottage.

Maybe tomorrow, I'll be successful.

Cheers
