Real English breakfast!

After a night with drinks and Mexican food, a good breakfast is just what we need!

Mexican with great friends!

After drinks at Guadabara we went to la Perla to eat great Mexican!

Stolen bride!

On her way to an unknown destination!

Can you see the plane?

Did I mention fog? In st john's? Fog city is not just a local restaurant chain, it is also a fact!
Really hope this little bird you can almost not see is my plane to Halifax. Flights have been cancelled all day... Not good. Crossing my fingers!

The guilty party! Today's view from the office around noon!

I have found the source! 282 and 340. When 282 backed up today, and gave us a farewell salute-honk I had a startling flashback from 04:15. Both war ships have left now, so crossing my fingers that the civilian vessels in the harbor do not feel the need to use their horn as a fog horn tonight! However, the fog is as thick as last night... So I am a little anxious! Good night!

Fog fog fog

The fog came rolling in on saturday evening, and has stayed ever since. All day yesterday was pretty thick low fog. But during the night it must have been bad, because at 4:15 I was awakened by the local fog horn right here in the harbor. I can alway here the one from out on signal hill, all night long, like a constant hum. But the one that woke me up was really loud, and ever ten seconds... Had to get up, close my window, and try to ignore it!!

Screeched in!

I am now a proud honorary Newfoundlander!
I have consumed a bountiful taste of Newfoundland's finest rum and have performed the ceremonial rites associated therein (including kissing a cod....)!

Another great lobster dinner

Starting to really enjoy the local seasonal favorites from the sea!!

Fox Island hike

Monday was the day of the fox island hike! The sun was out, and it was a beautiful hike! We even met two black tail eagles!

In the picture: me, Chris, Minh, Bernard, Therese, Hadar and Pat.
