Day 58: Skerwink Trail

We rise and shine to light fog, but we hope for the best and head over to Trinity East for one of the best hikes on the rock, Skerwink Trail. Its a 3.5 mile trail around the cliff edge of the peninsula and it did not disappoint. Craig and Kim hooked up with some locals to go Cod fishing early this morning and we heard them pull out around 6am. They scored several pounds of Cod, tonight, we eat Cod and Capelin fresh from the days catch. But first, today is a Travel day, and we head out around 1pm. As we leave English Harbor, the sun is out and the fog has lifted, a great day for a drive. A moderate drive of 125 miles, but the first stop it will be Walmart in Clarenville on the way. We reload groceries and on our way to next stop, Dildo NL. Yes Dildo, now I don't know how they got their name, but I would certainly consider changing it.

Miles: 125 / 4738 or 7625km
