Winter Sunsets

Winter sunsets are just as spectacular as any other sunset…just add the crisp, cool air to the mix and cherish

the magical colorful display…

Above you see a stunning East Coast sunset, taken at CBS, NL on a crisp November evening.

Here is  Steveston on B.C.’s West Coast where a cool December evening brings serenity with a peaceful and

tranquil end to the day in the form of a winter sunset.

East Coast Rugged Beauty

The North Atlantic East Coast of Canada is a wildly majestic place.

Newfoundland, North America’s most Easterly point…….a place of vast and fascinating rugged beauty.

 

St.  John’s Harbor one of the world’s largest, naturally protected harbors, is a first or last stop to many a vessel on its journey across the mighty, unforgiving Atlantic.

  St. John’s is a city of much history & culture…from the food to the music…to the Newfie ‘accent’ still spoken by many native Islanders. You’re sure to get invited home for “jig’s dinner” by just about anyone you meet. 

Afterwards, go downtown to ”Kiss the Cod” & get “Screeched In” at a pub on St. John’s infamous George Street!! 

Signal Hill with Cabot Tower perched atop,  overlooks St. John’s Harbor & the Atlantic Ocean from every direction.  It is one of the first & most popular stops for visitors to the Island.  Very likely you will see natural, spectacular icebergs or whales from this vantage point but hold on to your hats….it’s usually quite windy up here!!

Nothing quite says Newfoundland, though like the true, old-fashioned fishing villages that still exit along the coast such as world famous Petty Harbor. 

Or many others that are simply just tucked away or perched in the nooks and crannys of the rocky coastline.

As with all places, at the end of a long and productive day, you can find a sense of peaceful serenity in a colorful sunset

….the Island awaits.
