Conception Bay North







We went for a drive today to Conception Bay North in search of icebergs. We saw over 10 and drove through lots of little communities. We ended up at the very tip of the Avalon Peninsula in Bay de Verde. I took a lot of photos. Here are some of the icebergs, I will share more tomorrow.

Foggy Walk





One thing about the fog, it's peaceful to walk in. Here are a few photos from my walk today.

Snapshots




My nephew and his classmate stayed with me for a couple of days while they were in the city to go to a youth leadership conference (they are both in high school). I snapped a couple of photos of them, 2 when they were in the airport.

Fog


We've had too many foggy days to count. It is cold and wet and miserable and I am ready for spring. I think it's a long way off though.

Crocus



It actually snowed today! The weather has been so horrible that my crocuses are out but not opened up. I plucked this one from the garden so I could take a few photos of it.

Iceberg and Waves



We went for a short drive today, the weather is still not that great. This iceberg was in Outer Cove and the waves were high at Torbay Beach.

Iceberg and Fort Amherst



This iceberg was probably in Cuckold's Cove a couple of days ago. As you can see we've still got fog and it is still cold.

City Views and Crocuses





No pictures of icebergs today because of the fog that was along the coast, as you can see in these photos. Away from the fog it was nice and sunny, but a bit cooler than yesterday. And my crocuses are finally blooming in the front garden.

Blackhead






There are also icebergs off Blackhead. They are visible from Signal Hill but you can see them much closer in Blackhead. It was really warm today (17ÂșC) with little wind. There was an odd mist hanging along the coastline too.

We drove down the Southern Shore today in search of icebergs. There were a lot around the Tors Cove area, the most we have seen in one spot yet.
