After a lazy morning Linda took us on a walk to the beach in the southern part of the park to a place called "Green Gardens". . 3 miles each way. A walk it wasn't. A hike it was. A six mile round trip, we climbed up over a ridge and then down about 800-1000 feet to the ocean. In addition to some lovely patches through some fern glades, there were steep stretches and 425 steps. Had we known we likely would not have known. Sometimes it is best not to know. The destination was idyllic. Please see the photos. After about 30 minutes on the beach we climbed back up and and out and drove out of the park.
At Wiltondale, we stopped for a snack. here we met a great couple from Corner Brook, NL. Corner Brook is a slice of civilization in this part of the world, and is in the southwest part of the "Island". Randy and Hilga we out on their Harleys for a Sunday ride. They thanked us for "dropping by"
Then on to Port aux Basques to catch the ferry back to Nova Scotia in the morning. It was a gorgeous and memorable day.
Our 3 mile hike (6 miles round trip) down to the Gulf of St. Lawrence at "Green Gardens"
Ah, perfection in front of perfection!
