Saturday, July 26th. Harbour Breton


A beautiful, sunny day with light SW winds to start with.  Perhaps we should be sailing today, but there are some recommended walks around the peninsular.  We rode to the start of one of the walks which was beautiful.  It was about 5 miles round trip, and 80% was boardwalks and stairs.  We’ve notice that a lot in Newfoundland.  Many of the outports have boardwalks in lieu of roads, and they seem to extend the concept to walking trails.  And they’re very useful, without them much of the walk would be through very wet peat bogs. 

In the afternoon we did some maintenance work on the boat, a little more shopping and Ron cycled the propane tank up the hill to have it filled.
