St. Johns, NF

Just a quick note from Newfoundland. I am attending a conference this week and thought I would post a few pictures. 

When I told the customs agent that I was attending an arts conference in Newfoundland the officer said something like "There are arts in Newfoundland?" As it turns out it is a very vibrant arts community, especially for live music.

Here is a picture of folks getting Screeched in. Half fabricated tradition, half alcohol promotion, but all very fun.
