Prominent St. John's Bunker

Hi everybody, I imagine you're all getting tired of my pictures from Shelburne, so, I'm back in Newfoundland now, heading to BC in a couple of days so I'll post something to tide you over for awhile.

This is a pretty cool spot at the entrance to St. John's harbour, it used to guard the harbour against potential invaders from sea...sure enough the attackers got smart and took over by the land making the bunkers useless. Here's what's left of them, its now a landmark for St. John's shipping.

nope, not Redcliff, this one's Fort Amherst, Redcliff will have to wait about 3 weeks or so, because I'm out of here tomorrow.

Not just one...but 2, and its pointed conveniently in the direction of major shipping lanes, and a major tourist attraction....good thing they took the ammo!
