It's not a holiday without a boat trip

Heading into the fjord on the 3km walking trail

We (more like D) really misses our boat, so couldn’t pass up a boat tour on Western Brook Pond. 

Technically the pond cannot be considered a fjord - it has to be open to the ocean for that, and Western Brook Pond is a lake. However, the majestic billion year old cliffs of Western Brook Pond out-fjord anything found in Norway or Alaska.

We did not have reservations for the boat tour (and the tours were booked for the day), but decided to walk the 3km trail to the lake head. As luck would have it, there was a couple at the dock with extra tickets, so we were able to take the tour after all! Well worth it, though we were little concerned about the weather - which held out until we go back to our van. Phew!

Many stunning waterfalls along the way
