When was that?

Here's a couple off Bonavista at the end of June 2007. There were dozens
there then.



That¹s more like it!

We visited Newfoundland in '04 and '05. We drove and took the ferry.
On the first trip we went up to L'Anse aux Meadows and over to St.
John's. The next year we went to Twillingate and then worked our way to
St. John's again, where we visited The Rooms, which I believe had just
opened. Bergs were scarce both times, but it was in July so the season
may have ended by then.


Sounds like a great trip! I've yet to visit L'Anse aux Meadows and
Twillingate. The bergs are rarely around after May/June, but the last
two years (07,08) have been exceptional. I took those pics on 23 June 07
and some of the bergs hung around well into July. The tourists were
thrilled.

It can take up to two years for the bergs to make their way south, so
those bergs likely calved during the very hot 2005 season. While we're
getting immense numbers of bergs, the sea ice has been nil around the
Avalon.
