Bay Bulls

En route to Ferryland, we stopped at Gatherall's in Bay Bulls and checked in.
That evening we returned to stay for the night.
As we left Bay Bulls, we stopped to capture the view.
Along Route 10, there are numerous such picturesque bays.

Ferryland

We went to Ferryland Saturday afternoon and evening, as well as Sunday afternoon to attend the Southern Shore Shamrock Festival, reported to be one of the best festivals in Newfoundland for traditional music fans.
Even if it's not the weekend of the festival, Ferryland is worth a visit as it is the location of the Colony of Avalon, founded by Lord Baltimore before he founded the Colony of Maryland.

Supper break

During the supper break, we walked out through the Colony of Avalon to the Colony Restaurant we had heard was very good. (It was.)
