| The sleepy island of Carriacou, 14 miles north of Grenada, is a
great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of busy island life. Not to
mention it has the best pizzeria in Grenada.
Once again, Vicky made David hike 5 miles to a t-shirt shop and she couldnt
find one she liked. |

The white sandy beach and turquoise water of Grand Anse as seen from Fort
George. This was our main swimming hole.
Fort George was built by the French in 1705 and is the oldest fort in
Grenada. Even though it is now occupied by the local police, the grounds are
open to the public. It has stunning views of Grenada and is a great place to
enjoy a roti with friends. :) |

The HASH House Harriers is a beer club with a running problem. After
completing a grueling hike through the lush mountains of Grenada, it was time to
quench our thirst. A good time was had by all.
During the hike, David took time out to hunt for food....Delicious Juliet
Mangos perfectly ripe. |

During our stay in Grenada, we become addicted to beef and chicken rotis. Here is Vicky and our friends Richard and Laila
enjoying one outside De Roti
Shop in St George. Yum Yum! |

Unfortunately, it rained for five out of the six days during our friends'
visit. The day they left the sun came out and shined non-stop for a month!

The River Antoine Rum Distillery has produced rum since 1785 and claims to
have the oldest working mill in the Caribbean.
Here is picture of huge vats of fermenting sugar cane. The rum produced
comes out as 151 proof and will put hair on your chest. It might make
great lighter fluid for the BBQ grill! |
