On Thursday with the weather not looking so great we headed for Fogo Island.

The Change and Fogo Islands ferry.

The crossing is 45 minutes from Farewell, NL to Fogo Island, with a stop at Change Island.

In the middle of the photo is Brimstone Head. According to the Flat Earth Society, Brimstone Head is one of the four corners of the earth.

On Fogo Island there are about 10 small communities, the main one is Fogo. It was first settled in 1697. When we arrived it was raining pretty good, so we headed to Beaches Restaurant for a bite to eat.

Our Lady of the Snows Roman Catholic Church built in 1897.

After lunch we headed for the Brimstone Head trail head. Here is the warning sign at the bottom of the stairs.

Our brave souls ready to take the risk.

Time to head back and catch the ferry.

The two white buildings at the bottom right are Old Salt Box homes owned by the same people as our place.

The United Church, formely the Methodist Mission’s Church built in 1877. The bell tower was added in 1948.

St Andrews Anglican Church, built in 1910.

On Fogo Island you don’t have to watch out for moose, it’s caribou.

Heading back to Farewell.

Claudia still smiles, Angela a little tired.

On our way back to the cottage we stopped for some fresh lobster for dinner.

We bought our lobsters from Sansome and Sons Lobster Pool.

We bought almost 11 pounds of lobster at $6.65/lb.

We didn’t have a big lobster pot, so we had to do a couple at a time.

The first two are ready. They were delicious.

After the grey morning and showers, it cleared by the afternoon and made for a nice sunset.
