I mentioned the town of Trinity in Newfoundland previously, a lovely old community but a little touristy. On the other side of the bay lies Trinity East. Another old community but less polished and fewer tourists. I prefer Trinity East, it feels more like a genuine community. Fishing was the basis of the Newfoundland economy for decades and boating still seem to be a popular hobby.
No, we are not talking about The Shipping News where every Newfoundlander is supposed to have some instinctive love of boats. Instead we have a country where water is every where from the Atlantic to numerous lakes. Old boats and old boat houses are all over the old communities and they are lovely. Docks and jetties that look as is someone cut down trees and used the branches and trunk to build them 50 years ago. If you ever visit Newfoundland go to Trinity then head East, you will appreciate it.
