Sun., August 30 - day 14 of 15 - Woody Point & the Tablelands. This is one of my most favourite days as we explore this region on the West Coast of Newfoundland. It was a beautiful drive around Bonne Bay as we travelled through Gros Morne National Park. The sun was shining and we headed out to the Tablelands early in the morning to avoid the crowds. The views were spectacular. We made photo stops to see the provincial flower, The Pitcher Plant, we travelled out to Trout River where we experienced an original form of “Online shopping” and returned to Woody Point for lunch. We were warmly greeted by Jenny & Stan Parsons, owners of the Merchant Warehouse. After lunch we headed upstairs to The Loft Theatre where we were entertained by Kendra Parsons & Paul Rumboldt in the musical performance of “Woody Point of View”. This hour-long show features storytelling, traditional songs, and visual elements, highlighting the special heritage of the region. In the afternoon we visited the Park’s Discovery Centre and watched the award winning film, before departing for Corner Brook, for our overnight stay at the beautiful Glynmill Inn. An evening group dinner was served upon arrival.
