Tuesdays with Murphy: Santa Claus Parade

Santa Claus parade in rural Newfoundland, CanadaFriday and I had a lot of fun this past weekend taking Jerry and The Berry to see the Santa Claus parade in the Wonderful World of Whiteway. Of course, it was easy to take them, given that the parade swung right by our cottages. As always, there was lots of community spirit and some great floats. Including a fantastic Santa at the end. If you’d like to see some more pictures, please see our Facebook page (which is also a good place to learn about upcoming events and specials, too). Santa Claus parade in rural Newfoundland

Santa’s a Bayman!

Look closely at the float above, and you’ll see – Santa is a bayman! No wonder he’s so jolly! As you can see, we recently had the 45th Cavendish-Whiteway Santa Clause Parade. I was surprised by the level of participation (although I’ve lived here long enough to know that Whiteway is rarely not surprising). And to top it off, afterwards everyone headed to the Fire Hall for a free lunch – how is that for community spirit? I think Ocean Delight might have to enter a float next year!

Clifford George was Santa – perfect! And since we’re getting into that season, keep an eye on our Specials and Packages page – we’re currently offering a Buy One Night, Get One Half Off Special, and we’ll be rolling out another package soon. Remember, romantic getaways make great, unique gifts!
