Cedars Inn St. George's

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 ...

... was a favourite with the new &#8216;jet set&#8217;. The Calabash is built in a crescent shape overlooking extensive lawns and a number a palm trees down to the beach and Caribbean Sea, the rooms are well appointed suites, many with ...

... get around the marina and I see this giant 2 story Party Boat. Sure, it was a Motorized catamaran...but not a Sail equipped Catamaran!!! At this point, what do you do....we got on the boat and thought we'd make the most of it. There was a nice Steel Band and the crew was nice enough, but that was where the good eneded. The sail over to Morne Rouge beach was crazy rough, especially if ...

... sky was quite blue everywhere else.<br><br>The island is 21 miles by 12 miles wide. St. George's is the capital. Approximately 107,000 people live in Grenada, 27,000 in the capital.

A day at sea to travel the 500 or so nautical miles between Dominican Republic and Grenada. Up early for a lifeboat drill, then to the pool to sunbathe and read. Generally a lazy day on board. Hot and sunny - I am feeling the Christmas spirit with a hugely red Rudolph nose (sunburnt!...) Down to dinner on the ship (very nice), watched the Entertainment Team's show and 60's cabaret and then to bed. Grenada tomorrow.

... the top of the waterfall into the water below. They make their living from the tips that tourists give to see them jump from the top of the waterfall. I know that I wouldn't be able to jump off the edge from that high up, but that must be a fun job for them!<br><br> After viewing the waterfall, we drove to Fort Frederick for a breathtaking view of the island. The tour was fantastic! "Grenada Explorer" offered through the cruise ship allowed us to ...

... up on the essential chocolates, perfumes then I was off for my 10 hour journey. The journey was uneventful, I watched movies, played video games, ate and slept for a wink. Grenada: Today is my 3rd day in Grenada and it's around 35 degrees again today. The only thing that I can do right now is to sit around in my shorts and a vest next to the fan. A little later I'm going to hit the mall and then go to the beach to cool ...

... it's our turn for clean clothes, I load a bucket with fresh water (never salt water as it is nearly impossible to rinse out) and detergent. I stuff as many pieces as will properly soak and leave the lot overnight. In the morning, using another bucket, I go through each piece and scrub where needed before using more fresh water to rinse. It's great for the cuticles. It takes quite a bit of water this way and if we're not sure of how much we have left, we catch rainwater ...

... that I stood up for it. It rested next to my sun chair all day and followed me a little bit back to the boat. One guy even thought it was a great excuse to try and pick me up, and said that he would have intervened if I hadn't and that he loved dogs... Yeah right! Our flight back to St. Lucia via Barbados left the next day, so we stayed in the boat that day, drinking our goodbyes, wishing Heidi and Eyvind a safe trip down to South America.
