🚗 Coffee in the cupholder, snacks packed, and the backseat full of questions and giggles.

We hit the road to St. Lawrence, St. John’s & Glovertown and I’m sharing the journey, one letter at a time.

In Ferryland Newfoundland, two small boats rest on a dock by a tranquil body of water, with a soft mist obscuring the distant hills. Gentle tones of grey and green blend with the landscape, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.

Ferryland is the heart of the Irish Loop, an area of Newfoundland known for its Irish roots, families and also the location where George Calvert better known as Lord Baltimore established the Colony of Avalon in 1621.

One of the earliest permanent European settlements in North America, it is now home to a community of approximately 400, it is picturesque, filled with history, historic ruins, artisans and the warm welcome of Newfoundland. In 1953, the Colony of Avalon site was declared a National Historic Site of Canada.

The vibrant cityscape of St. John's Newfoundland features colorful buildings nestled among lush green trees, with the prominent church known as the Basilica-Cathedral of St. John the Baptist and a modern building known as The Rooms in the background. Rolling hills create a scenic backdrop under a cloudy sky.

The striking red and white lighthouse officially known as The Long Point Lighthouse stands prominently against a vibrant blue sky, surrounded by a charming white house with a red roof. The scene is set on a rocky landscape near Twillingate Newfoundland, known worldwide as the iceberg capital of the world.

The tall, red lighthouse at Long Point Newfoundland rises against a partly cloudy sky, accompanied by adjacent white buildings with red roofs. Its unique shape and vibrant color contrast with the surrounding structures and blue sky.

Independence was never passive.

It was bold, defiant, and demanded justice.

From here in Canada, I’m watching my American friends fight for democracy and I believe you will rise!

The Wild Strawberry | Stephenville, NL YouTube video by Letters from Newfoundland

This postcard’s from The Wild Strawberry, a cozy little café in Stephenville that might just be the coziest spot on Newfoundland’s west coast.

Come for the latte, stay for the vibe (and maybe the BBQ chicken melt too).

In #Twillinggate #Newfoundland

#Iceberg Alley has seen some amazing bergs. This enormous one was caught on video, just as it calved.

Look at the waves from the ice movement and the shifting that takes place afterwards.

What a capture.
