Dear Travelers,
Another day for us to travel St. John's Newfoundland, it is named by John Cabot when he visited on the Feast Day of St. John the Baptist in 1497, St. John's would not become a permanent settlement until the 17th century. The naturally sheltered harbor is back-dropped by steep hills lined with bright-hued houses and the massive Anglican Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. A walk up historic Signal Hill is rewarded by excellent views of this appealing seaport, capital of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. This historic site is considered as the birth place of the Information Age. Here, in 1901, Italian inventor Marconi received the first wireless transatlantic signal.
See you there...
Rinell :-)
