It’s also the start of one of the most popular hiking trails in St. John’s, the North Head trail.

I’m pleased to share this morning’s version with you. Enjoy!Sunrise in St. John’s is a busy time of day. Here the Atlantic Osprey heads out the narrows.Some landscapes make you feel big and small at the same time…I will admit that one of my favourite spots in the world is sitting on the edge of a cliff. Any cliff. A seaside cliff is bonus like the maraschino cherry on top of a sundae. Spillar’s Cove has an abundance of cliffs to catch a view from…just saying.TA’s Facebook Page
