Cruznation Posted November 7, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Hi, We are considering a Canada/NE cruise in June when puffins will be colorful. Can anyone recommend a tour offered by Royal Caribbean that fits the bill, so to speak? I heard the whale watching tours show bird breeding islands as well, but i want to make sure my wife sees her puffins. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard there is a Pub in St. John's that has a wooden Puffin and you have to kiss it's "ars" before they will give you your first drink. Silly bit of Trivia there for you. The Newfies are a rare breed and loads of fun. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about Saint John, New Brunswick or St. John's, Newfoundland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephraim Posted November 23, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 23, 2008 St. John's is in Newfoundland. Saint John is in New Brunswick. And yes, they have to be spelled that way... they never abbreviate Saint John. Avoids the confusion, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lroche_nf Posted November 24, 2008 #5 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Its St. John's, Newfoundland that does the puffin kissing thing (part of the Screech In "ceremony" at Trapper Johns Pub). If its St. John's there are lots of puffin tours out of Bay Bulls and they are spectacular. I can't speak on Saint John or Halifax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
