St John's Newfoundland (5 - 8 Aug) Part 4C

After Petty Harbour, we headed off to Quidi Vidi (pronounced as kittyvidi).  At first, I have no idea where this place "kittyvidi" was cos it said so fast.  Quidi Vidi was the first place I went to after landed to see what left of the Regatta.  Buried deep inside is Quidi Vidi village including a small fishing village.  It's a beautiful and picturesque place.  Our tour guide was relating a story of how a big iceberg came and block the inlet mouth and a polar bear was on top of it and eventually climb up to the rocks and could not come down.  Rescue team was sent to rescue the polar bear, but rescue work did not go smooth.  Here is a youtube video on the attempted rescue.  It a pretty awesome video.
