You wouldn't believe!!!!

Folks!!!!! You wouldn't believe!
Yesterday, we were going to catch some sun and warm ocean in Bellevue Beach. It's not so far from St.John's, 110 km. It's a quiet and neat place for relaxation with family and kids.


BUT!!! After that, we wanted to find a place to eat local grub. We are on the Atlantic ocean! We were told that the best seafood restaurant close by is Dildo Dory Grill... Yes, Yes and Yes it's  Dildo Dory Grill in small town called Dildo :-) I have a proof of it: 

You know, it is a pretty good restaurant! We ordered Calamari, Dildo Signature Chowder and   Moose burger with home-grown potatoes.............. It was so delicious that we didn't want to go home.



  Alas, it was time to go home. But in last second, my boyfriend ordered  Blueberry Crisp.......... It..... It...... It was heavenly!!! Everyone should try it!!!!!!!!!

Thereafter, we were so stuffed we could barely walk.

It was our Aug 17, 2013 - amazing day on the Bellevue Beach with dinner at the Dildo Dory Grill. 

I still cannot believe that name of this peaceful place is Dildo.... :-)

The Royal St. John’s Regatta 2013

    This historic regatta is the oldest continuing sporting event in North America. The event continues to draw in excess of 50,000 spectators each year and is a major focal point of summer activities in the St. John's area.

The 195th Royal St.John's Regatta was today.  From 8:30 am till 8:00 pm there are exciting races,  interesting  games with prizes, and popular festivities:





On this day, the city of St.John's allowed us to use metro-bus serves just for 1$ for a ride - it's a good deal! (Usually, we are paying 2.25$)

Of course, there were a lot of variety of foods; we could not walk away from the delicious blue mussels:


If you have a chance to visit The Royal St. John’s Regatta next time - you should definitely use this opportunity and enjoy the oldest event in North America!!!

Cell phone company

Yesterday, we went to return my cell phone (it has been freezing very often). Everything was good till an associate began to activate my new cell phone. Their system did not want to activate my new phone. They could not give us the phone without activation. The associate asked us to wait about an hour.
I said:
- Ok, not a problem.  Give me a different cell phone that I can use for this hour; I have my  SIM card, I will insert my SIM card into the cell phone. I'm expecting an important call.
After that, I heard the amazing answer:
- We can't do it. It's not possible.
What a .......???? It's the easiest service! You are the CELL PHONE COMPANY! And you CAN"T do it??? ...............................................
All in all, I spent an hour without a cell phone. I'm not addicted to phones, but I was waiting for an important cal!
When I got my new phone, they gave me a free case for the cell phone. It was kind :-)

Not everything is perfect, and sometimes we encounter unexpected unpleasant or generous deeds.
