Mile 5913

 The last days we are tourists in St. John's, NL.  It is such an amazing town, the downtown around Water Street and Duckworth Street, the Harbourside Park, the Jelly Bean Row, Signal Hill and the Queen's Battery Barracks, The Rooms, the pubs and restaurants in the harbour district.  We just drift with the flow of the town and enjoy the days walking and not driving, and not having a place to be at the ned of the day.  So here some impressions from St. John's:

"The personality of St. John's.Newfoundland, hits you like a smack in the face with a dried cod, enthusiastically administered by its citizenry."  -  Jan Morris, Welch writer and historian, 1926-2020
