On Monday we visited Cape Harrison and Indian Harbor in Labrador. It was pouring rain and windy all day - so we hiked in the rain. Only a few of us decided to make it to shore and we dressed in all of our wet weather gear. The zodiac ride from the ship was extremely wet and wild which added to the amount of water that would soon fill my boots. Denise brought the Olympus waterproof camera because any other camera would have been doa. The "village" consisted of some old buildings that had served as a refuge for fisherman going up and down the coast. It also served as a mission to aboriginal and settlers along the coasts of Labrador and the eastern side of the great northern peninsula of northern Newfoundland.
