Paradise!

Well, Paradise on two fronts today.

First of all it was a full day of sunshine and second,we are in the St. John's suburb of Paradise.

We started the day by heading to Placentia. This was a nice trip as we first toured Fort Royal at Castle Hill Historic Site. We hiked some of the same paths that have been hiked for over two hundred years. Pretty neat.

Afterwards we headed to the town site and after some chili at Timmies we went to the O'Reilly house for a tour. A Victorian/Edwardian house, it was really neat.

Upon leaving we made the decision to head to St. John's and do day trips from here. We found an Air Bnb apartment for about $73/night and it is located in the town of Paradise in the basement suite with the owners living upstairs. We will be here for 4 nights and have told the owner we will stay two extra (if her previous reservations cancel out for next Monday and Tuesday).

We went to the local Dominion store (Loblaws- same as Superstore)

Tonight after a late meal purchased at the store I got on line with Airbnb  to see what could be done about the non-stay I got charged for in Bonavista. It was our fault for how things went and it will be up to the owner to decide if we get a refund (or partial one). Time will tell on that.
