Gadling Audio Slideshow: Newfoundland Part I

Ok, folks, trying something a little different here. I'll try to do a print version as well (though much shorter), but thought I'd pull together some photos and such from my Newfoundland trip into a tight little audio slideshow.
I added some (very) cheesy music and did a somewhat spontaneous voice over, but I think it gives a nice visual feel for the place. I'm going to try and find the time to do one for several of the days I was there, including the two days I spent kayaking outside of St.. John's and Trinity.
So, click here and check it out and feel free to post comments if you enjoyed it.

I don't really dig cold weather destinations, but this slide show really interested me. I've heard that Newfoundland is beautiful, and your photo essay convinced me.
The photos are great; the voice-over is informative; and the music is invigorating. (OK, I'm joking about the last part!) Really nice work, though, and I can't wait for Part II!

Willy,
Newfoundland can indeed be cold in the winter but I found it extremely pleasant the time I was there (the end of May 2005). A light jacket was sometimes needed, but mostly I just kept it in the car to have it near. I really enjoyed my time in St. John's, the people are friendly and the town is very nice. I have some great photos from my trip if anyone would like to see them: Newfoundland 2005 (my favorite one is titled "Newfoundland 2005: Cape Spear Lighthouse 03", I had a 13x19" print made and hung it on my wall at home.
I second what's being said Erik, I think the video was very nicely done, even with the "cheesy" music.
