Newfoundland Stories Ornament

Especially when powerful winds roar across the Strait from Labrador. Fishermen swear the howling North Atlantic echoes Viking voices from a thousand years ago.

Much has happened in this land of whales, icebergs, mountains and fjords on the eastern edge of North America. The province of Newfoundland and Labrador boasts four national parks and four official UNESCO World Heritage sites. The people, among the friendliest and kindest in the world, make the province stand out.
