When we were in Clarvenville we went to Woody Island and spent the night. This island was part of the resettlement process to move residents to the main land where electricity was available. The only electricity available was by generator. We were fed very well and we were greeted by the aroma of bread baking. They bake one loaf for each guest. On our return trip we had a picnic lunch on another island.
We also visited Puffin Island to see the puffins. They were entertaining to watch. The chicks fledge at night into the ocean and remain there for five years before returning to breed. They only lay one egg and mate for life.
We also visited the movie set for Random passage. This is a movie about early life in Newfoundland and how the survived fishing. The movie was based on the books; Random Passage and Waiting for time. I read the books during our trip and plan to watch the movie when we get home.

Looks like you two are seeing some really beautiful sites. I love the sign and the lighthouse is really neat. Christopher says he likes the puffins. Keep having fun and we will see you soon.
