St. Anthony to Plum Point

July 12th and we are headed from St. Anthony to Plum Point.
Before we left St. Anthony we decided to do a hike up to the top of a lookout point. Well the sign says it is 476 steps to the top. We’ll have to take their word for it as we did not count them all, trust it’s lots of steps and a good hike. However once you are at the top the view is amazing out to the sea, back towards the land and especially of the small town of St. Anthony.    

However, the wind was howling and so it made it a bit cool once at the top.
Coming down from the hike we could see a very small iceberg near the shore and some even smaller chunks at the shore. So, I hiked down to the rocky waters edge and was lucky enough to grab a chunk of iceberg. The ice is very dense and the local owner of the Tim Horton’s told us that if you put a chunk in a drink that it is so dense it will last though two drinks without melting.
From St. Anthony we headed to Plum Point. We arrived into Plum Point after a side trip to St. Barbe to see the ferry leaving for Labrador. Tonight we stayed at the Plum Point Motel, which is also a Tour Bus stop, so they are very busy and the Tour Bus folks get the better rooms. We ended up with a small cabin that would fit very well at a remote fishing lake….. Oh Well, it’s just one night.
