So this blog will mainly be about our Something Saturday activity, but we thought we'd include a picture from our walk around Quidi Vidi Lake on Friday evening. This is only about a 10 minute walk from our flat.

Yesterday, on Saturday, our Something Saturday involved walking to Signal Hill, around Signal Hill, then taking the Cuckold Cove trail back to Quidi Vidi, and then home. Here is a map of our route. It should also be noted that the trail is definitely not as flat as the map may have you believe.
This hike was the first time that Luke had done the Ladies Lookout and Cuckold Cove trails. Elizabeth had done part of the Cuckold Cove trail before, but not in the same direction as yesterday. In total it took about 2.5 hours, but that included stopping for a picnic about two thirds of the way up Signal Hill, where we met Milo and Marley - two awesome Shih Tzus, as well as various photo ops. The views were incredible because you're walking right along the coast for the most part. Here are some pictures:
We stopped for a bit when we arrived at Cuckold Cove and spoke to a man who was a retired teacher from Goose Bay. He apparently volunteers with the City and told us a bit about the area of Cuckold Cove. After that, we walked back to Quidi Vidi and saw some incredibly cute ducklings on the way (that you can check out in the slideshow).
And then we went to Iron Man 3 with Lisa last night. Epic.
So that's it for our Something Saturday this week! Going out to enjoy the 19 degree weather and a Cinco de Mayo party later today.
