Found in Newfoundland Found in Newfoundland highlights places to see and things to do in the beautiful province of Newfoundland, and other related interesting news items.

Found in Newfoundland was originally a blog to share information about the places I visited and things to do and see there. I'm now expanding it to include a page and Twitter account focusing on promoting Newfoundland sites and sights and events of all kinds. I am also developing an associated line of unique and customisable Newfoundland souvenirs featuring in particular some of the small

er communities I've visited. I found in my travels that most places carry the same souvenirs, and they tend to say "Newfoundland," or even "Canada," but few carry the name of the town itself. My hope is to have the largest collection of souvenirs available in the province. If you have an event to promote or would like to recommend a place to visit, please feel free to post and share.

The CBN Trailway group is hosting an Open House at the Crowley House today. Live music, door prizes, tea and sweets, burgers, and moose stew. See how this registered heritage structure has been restored into a lovely rental property while maintaining its period beauty.

We also stopped by the Avondale Railway Station, which is another interesting, historic place to visit. In the summer, they sometimes offer rides on the little train.

I remember when one of the train cars was set up as a dining car complete with a tea room to buy a light lunch. Anyone else visit when that was there?

There's a lovely little Heritage Village we discovered in Victoria, near Carbonear. Unfortunately, it wasn't open when we were there, but it was still a nice place to explore and get an idea of some of its history as the site of a planned POW camp. Definitely recommend checking it out. Victoria Heritage / Tourism society https://www.newfoundlandlabrador.com/plan-and-book/attractions/26378682

Had a great visit to the Cateracts Provincial Park today. It's an incredible spot to see, and an easy drive down a well-maintained dirt road, not far from Colinet. There are a LOT of stairs, but there's a viewpoint at the top of the stairs down a short, easy trail if you don't want to do the stairs. Then we surprised a young moose on the way out, but it ran too fast to get a good pic.
