Home Sweet Home

Welcome to Burin!  Population 2470ish.  Once an old fishing community, but now, I am not really sure what the people do...  However, it is now home.

My mom said that every couple needs to live in a trailer at some point in their relationship.  Our time is now, and thank goodness it is only for 5-6 more weeks.

Home Sweet Home

Actually, it really isn't that bad.  There are 2 additions, one which holds a living room, and the other what my family would call a "mud room" (which has very low ceilings, so as a result, D does not enter).   The furnishings are pretty comfortable, and the view is amazing.

View from our porch.  Newfoundland is known for a lot of fog.

 We are about a 8 minute jog away from a 2.5 km trail, which I go to everyday...sometimes twice a day (wedding/honeymoon body here I come!)  There really is no "downtown."  All the homes and business just follow the coast...for miles...and miles...actually kilometers and kilometers.

Typical evening stroll

Views from the little park I go to...

To get groceries, we have to go to Marystown.  There are two options:  Sobey's and No Frills.  There is also a Wal-Mart.  Also, about a 35 minute walk away is the Burin Cinema.  They have one movie a week...showing at 8 pm on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday.

Living here is very relaxing, and it is definitely a great experience.  In about a week and a half we will be visiting the other side of "The Rock," which I am really excited about....

Till the next time...
