So, <br>Went to the masaya markets, makes you really wonder why Canadian Health organizations are so anal retentive about sanitary practices. There are pieces of meat, sitting in blazing heat, with flies all over them, everywhere. You can also buy half dead chickens, vegetarians must just be ******. Started my spanish classes as well. Fun Fact: the word Papaya in Cuba, means vagina... could get very confusing if you happen to be ...

... La Palma, La Gomera, Lanzarote and Tenerife), the Greek Islands (Corfu, Crete, Santorini, Mykonos, Skiathos and Rhodes) the Red Sea Riviera (Sharm el Shiekh, Hurghada and Taba Heights) the Arabian Gulf (Dubai, Oman, Qatar and Abu ...

So today was to be the sailing Catamaran and beach party day.....or so we thought! The materials have been updated (have to think we had something to do with that..), however, Princess listed their "Party Cruise &amp; Beach" excursion on a Catmaran. I even called Princes to make sure it was a Sailing Catamaran with nets, etc....So, we got on to the bus that took us over to an area where ...

... the island to Greenville and then on to Grand Etang Lake in Grand Etang National Park passing along the way verdant grove of bananas, cocoa, nutmeg and other spices. Once there, we enjoyed a complimentary beverage while taking the views of the lake which is located in the crater of an extinct volcano. Cooool!<br><br>Along the way, we also stopped at a small fishermen's village near the ocean to admire the deep blue ocean ...

... waterfalls and Mona monkeys mugging it up for bananas, enjoying a delightful local lunch and the flora and fauna of the island. Leaving Grenada, we headed north to the island of Carriacou. We'd been here several times before, as well. A young boat boy approached us to advertise his aunt's restaurant. We asked him if he'd be interested in showing us some local trails for hiking. His eyes lit up with the possibility. We ...

... positive when recalling these devastating experiences. The tour was about 4 1/2 hours long and they gave us a very detailed description of the nature and buildings around the island.<br><br> Our ship was in port in one of the main towns, St. George's. From there, we drove around the winding roads up the mountains towards the Dougaldston Estate, where the spices are harvested. Along the way, Louise told us all about the areas we drove through ...

... le pont où je fais une sieste au son des vagues! Quel bonheur! Après s'être faites toutes belles pour le party de ce soir, on se rend à la salle à manger à 20h, puisqu'on a une réservation. Mais, on a donné notre table à un autre couple qui n'en sont qu'à l'entrée... on doit donc attendre qu'une autre table soit disponible. Mais le menu de ce soir compense largement les désagréments quotidiens... de plus, notre serveur est charmant. Un portugais qui ne sait ...

... locals and expats, as "leave the islands any time" airways. Of note, LIAT and Carribean Star airlines have recently merged and the our short 50 minute flight to Grenada was on time, professional, and with more service than we had from Boston to San Juan! It was a pleasant way to start our day and the business model designed to gain efficiencies of two competing carriers in a small market appears to have been a good one. Kudos to LIAT for a nice flight ...

... British and French Colonial architecture scattered all over town. Surprisingly after 90% of the buildings were destroyed by Hurricane'Ivan' back in 2004 there are only a few buildings that show signs of such damage now. After meeting a friendly fellow named Randy, I was escorted around the city to the vegetable/spice market where I learnt a lot about nutmeg and various other spices that make Grenada famous. Grenada actually produces about 1/3 of ...
