It rains here a lot, but when it's sunny, it sure makes it worth it. We went out to signal hill for a mini-hike and met up with some of our Liberty peeps there. It was so beautiful, and hot out.
The Slopes on these hills were really steep, and made up of many large rocks. Newfoundland is one big rock I think. It's pretty neat. This is the bay where all the ships make dock, on the other side of the hill we are on is the Ocean.
So far in our Newfoundland Adventure I have noticed a few things that Newfoundlander’s use in their speech.
- Whenever replying “yes” to you they say, “Yes” BUT, they do it while breathing in. It’s like when you say yes weird, and then people sort of laugh at you because you accidentally said it while breathing in, yeah. That’s how they say it ALL the time. Sometimes they say it normal. But you can bet, while speaking with a Newfoundlander, you will get told “Yes” the Newfoundland way at least every other time.
- If you are a Man; Don’t get thrown off when other Men call you “Love” or “Dear.” They also call you Bud, but that probably won’t throw you off like “love” will. I’m not a man, but for me, Almost every person I have met from here has called me Love. It’s a little weird sometimes. Mostly it’s just weird when it comes from Teenage boys.
- Also, they say "By" after their sentences. Yes, by. No by. Where ya too by? Where's everyone too by?
