This morning we treated ourselves to an Egg McMuffin combo before hitting the road to do some sightseeing of coastal villages near Clarenville.
Our first stop was at Deep Bight, a small village not far from our motel.
I found it interesting how boaters tie up their boats to accommodate the tide’s ebb and flow. The bow is secured to a dock cleat, while the stern is tied to a rope running to a buoy away from the pier. That second line is also tied to the pier, but is used in a clothesline sort of fashion to keep the stern way from the dock. Quite ingenious.
The next village we stopped at was called Hatchet Cove and we stopped and talked to a man who has lived there his whole life. The homes are all impeccably neat and tidy.
We found ourselves in Goosberry Cove where several old fishing boats were tied up at a very sturdy pier full of unloading equipment.
We ended our day at Southport before heading back to Clarenville, about 45 minutes away.
Loving this trip!
