New Found Land - Day 3

Impressions and Picts

1. Escalators. Think about it people.
2. When you have your glasses hanging by a string around your neck, make sure you bob when the boat weaves, else, the glasses hit the rail and you watch as one of your lenses goes flying overboard.
3. Once you have one lens in your reading glasses, you have to close one eye to use them, hence looking like some stupid pirate.
4. Pirates, contrary to popular belief, did not lose an eye....they lost a lens in their reading glasses. As such, it was easier to wear a patch than close one eye when ordering dinner.
5. Arrrrrr mateys is the natural utterance of annoyance when trying to read a menu with one eye closed.
6. "Thar be dragons there" was in reference to Dragon Optometrists and not a mythical beast.
7. Long John Silver didn't have a wooden leg. He had a wooden lens (not very effective).
8. Never eat dinner at a place known for being a party bar. 
9. Whale and iceberg cruises aren't as good when there are no whales or icebergs. However, being on the water is far better than being on land (there are no hills).
10. The US Open starts really late when you're on NL time (but that's OK because it makes a great sleeping pill).
11. Time for a glass of wine.

Picts

I thought this was funny. A bit of electrical tape and there you are.

My destiny.

Following a working boat out of the harbour.

Me. The door to the head was open. There was a mirror. I took advantage of that just like some pro photog (we call ourselves photogs).

Does it look rough? It wasn't really. Windy, but an off-shore, so not really.

But tourists can always get wet.

Who's driving the boat?

Now if only Quint were balanced on the mast? It would be a great shot instead of a picture of masts and radar.
