We went for a hike at Signal Hill yesterday -- my first time hiking Signal Hill. It's been a long time since I'd been on a hike. It's short -- only around a 3.5 km loop, but it involves about a 500 m elevation gain. We took our time and enjoyed the sights (my favourite way of hiking). Our thought is that on nice weather days over the spring / summer / fall, we can do this as part of our Saturday morning / early afternoon date -- go for a short hike and then enjoy a nice lunch.We feel as though we're among the luckiest people on the planet to be living in such a beautiful place.
For those of you who don't know, Signal Hill is a National Historic Site in St. John's, located just minutes outside of the core and has beautiful vistas of both the ocean and the city of St. John's. There's even a little "castle" on top of the hill, Cabot Tower.

Me too -- I can't wait until you guys get out here. A part of me can't believe that you'll really be here soon -- very soon! I can't wait!!!
