It’s a beautiful morning! A time lapse of the sun rising this morning and St. John’s waking up. Can you spot the pedestrian, ship leaving harbour, and security person enjoying the view?Marian standing on a wave of rock while a wave crashes below. What a lovely batch of weather we’ve been served up of late!Continuing in my quest to honour the small window of time where they great ball of fire rises from the sea between the St. John’s Harbour narrows, here is this morning’s orb of light and possibility.Swinging to the other end of the day, Marian enjoys the sunset near Tickle Cove after checking out the way cool sea arch.When first light wakens The Battery! This iconically colourful neighbourhood is the first you see when your cruise through the harbour narrows. It’s also the start of one of the most popular hiking trails in St. John’s, the North Head trail. It winds it way along the coast up to the top of Signal Hill.For a brief time each spring and fall, the sun rises through the St. John’s Harbour narrows bringing memorable mornings to light. I’m pleased to share this morning’s version with you. Enjoy!TA’s Facebook Page

Welcome aboard. Thanks for letting me know your enjoying learning about Nepal
Hey TA,
We look forward to checking your blog posts and finding out how your day is going! We have just 2 questions that we would like for you to answer, if you get time. 1. Do you need to wear an oxygen mask when you reach the top of the mountain? 2.How high is Mount Everest?
Thanks, hope you are able to respond.
Ms. Green’s grade two class at Holy Family Elementary in Paradise, NL.
Hi. Mount Everest is 8848 meters high and most people need to use oxygen at the summit. A few folks manage to summit without it.
