St. Anthony to St Barbe

It was only 112 kms today from St. Anthony to St. Barbe so we did not have to rush. It is from St. Barbe that we are catching the ferry tomorrow to go to Labrador and we are staying overnight on the other side at Mary Barney's Bed and Breakfast. I will not be taking the computer so there will be no blog tomorrow night.

Once we were set up today we went back to Flower Cove, it was a cute little fishing village and had an interesting light house out on an island. It no longer is in operation but the town in wanting the government to fix it up so it can be open to the public as a tourist spot.

From here we went for a walk to see the Trombolites and we had to cross the Marjorie bridge, it was originally used many years ago for the locals to go to the coast with their horse and carts, or their dog sleds.

The Trombolites look like big rocks but are actually living micro-organisms, they are one of the earliest recorded living things on the planet, the only other ones are found in Australia.

So we are busy getting packed up and internet does not work good so had to go up the road, will sign off and will be back after Labrador.
