Robbie's Trip to Newfoundland...

THE VIEW LOOKING DOWN ON ST. JOHN'S HARBOUR FROM SIGNAL HILL, NL SEPT 8, 2010


The harbour plays host to multiple cruise ships a day. The locals like to watch the tourists try to ride their "cruise line" supplied bicycles up Signal Hill...the smart ones are the ones pushing their bikes up the hill!
The road leading up Signal Hill, St. John's airport is in the back...look for the red lights in the background...precision approach path indicators (PAPI's)
The entrance to St. John's harbour...known as "The Gut"
This is the Cabot Tower - where Marconi made his first transatlantic high frequency radio communication.

Another view of the cruise ship in dock.

Hope you enjoyed the pretty pictures.

Thanks for stopping by.
