In the northwest corner of Newfoundland is the National Historic Site of L’Anse aux Meadows, the only authenticated Norse site in North America. The Visitor’s Center shows many of the archeological findings and some of the Viking village has been recreated, including actors demonstrating everyday life.
We did a little hike along the coast line and found a delightful surprise, fairy homes created from the imagination of children.
After leaving the village, we went to dinner at the Norseman Restaurant and had the best dinner in Newfoundland. We saw what looked like the Leif Erikson statue in Ballard and saw that it is a replica given by the Leif Erikson International Foundation of Seattle to Vinland in 2013.
