HOW TO NAVIGATE THIS BLOG:


We enjoy sharing our lifestyle with our family, friends, and others. So COME ON OUT and "let's get on with it". You only have an opportunity to live once. For those of you who do not choose to get away, feel free to travel vicariously via this blog.

This is primarily a blog of photographs, of our travels. Our blogging time is limited by our activities, so we figure a photograph is worth a thousand words. You may click on the photos to enlarge them.

There is only one Post per page. You can access earlier posts by clicking on the link below and to the right, or by going to the "archive" which is found below the current post.

The "Relevant Links" will take you to sites showing our current location, the weather conditions that we are experiencing, some of our favorite ports of call, and information related to our boat. When using the SPOT link, to see where we are, click on "satellite" tab to get a photo of the area (takes a while to load).

If you must have more then you may also follow the links to our "Earlier Blogs".

Enjoy

Fogo, Newfoundland (Fogo Island)

Friday, August 10th, 2012

After visiting Tilting we were off to the town of Fogo, on the north end of Fogo Island.  Photos taken along the shore between Tilting and Fogo:



The local swimming hole (a ?warm? lake in the interior of the island):


The north end of the island was much more barren:


Ahead is Brimstone Head, which rises above the town of Fogo:


Brimstone Head - if there is a hill with a view it must be climbed.


Preparing to step off the "flat earth:"


"Strairway to heaven"

Which way shall we go?
