Gros Morne

From Twillingate to the Gros Morne Nation Park is about a five hour drive on not the best of roads. We arrived in Rocky Harbour in the middle of the park mid afternoon. Gros Morne encompasses a region of 800 meter hills and includes a fiord or two. Most visitors are hikers. Not so long ago I would have joined them. This year no so.

 We chose to take it easy through lunch the next day. Then we head north to the village of Cow Head noted for its Warehouse Theatre. We were hoping for  matinee but no such luck. Here is a photo of the Heritage Garden at the Anglican Church:

The name Cow Head refers to the shape of the island connected to the mainland by a built up beach. The fishing harbour is located at the mouth of the head:

On our way back to Rocky Harbour I got this hazy picture of one of the fiords:
