St. John’s Newfoundland

After a wonderful day at Sea aboard Serenity we arrive at St. Johns, Newfoundland. When we left the ship to explore it was pouring rain and 41 degrees! Once again we were blessed and the rain stopped and we were able to walk the town . St. John’s, is the  province’s capital, it is the perfect combination of big-city  and small-town charm. As the oldest and most easterly city in North America, this is where heritage lives. Melded with culture, history, and personality, St. John’s has survived two World Wars, five centuries, countless hardships and triumphs. It’s become a rare, old city full of character, experience and charisma, with a contemporary, sophisticated edge. We hiked up to Signal Hill for a great panoramic view and then walked the gorgeous heritage trail with the old buildings and history.

Home to Marconi's first transatlantic wireless transmission, this iconic St. John's attraction was also a strategic military post for both the French and the English for centuries.
