Default Something hot, something cool - Bergy bit St. Lunaire bi.jpg (1/1)

Heh. Icebergs are a mixed blessing. They're beautiful to watch but if a
few get stuck off the narrows, a northeast wind can be brutal. We can
get bergs as late as July.

In the last two or three years, the number of bergs have been
incredible. Hundreds float by. I drove out to Bonavista and there were
dozens everywhere I looked. Everyday now, people are talking about bergs
off different parts of the Avalon.

A gift from the fast melting glaciers of Greenland.


We haven't been to Holyrood but did go past south of it on the TCH a
couple of times. 4 to be exact.



It's a beautiful spot on a hot sunny day.

I bet it is!

That's a different berg story from when we visited the Rock - there was
hardly a berg to be seen. There was a bergy bit in St. Lunaire harbor,
but that was it.
