Grenada Palace Hotel St. George

... to your cuban friend about eating alot of papaya.<br> <br>I have planned out the next 3 months of my life( you think I'm exagerating, but I'm not). Basically it's non-stop bussing around on the weekends to some of the crazy destinations in Nica, but I'll give more details once I have actually been there. <br><br>As far as personal life in the house goes, its pretty relaxing. On my run this morning, I saw an eight year ...

... are 16 rooms (cottages) each with a bathroom open to the elements &#8211; ideal for couples.<br>The recently restored La Source is located on &#8216;Pink Gin Beach&#8217; at the south of the island all 100 rooms have views over the ...

... are havens dotted around the island, nestled into the trees, seamlessly becoming part of the landscape. One of our most idyllic family villas in the island is Villa Caribella, owned by a lovely lady who has lived on the island her whole life ad takes so much pride in her home country that it is awe inspiring. The local spirit instilled is so helpful in order for people visiting the island and wanting to get a true picture of this island. The villa sits atop a hill, with an ...

... 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 ...

... their cars, the driver on the right side. The roads are quite narrowed and houses, often built right next to the roads. The living conditions looked pififul, but the people looked proud and happy. <br><br>We enjoyed the narrated drive through the picturesque capital of St. George's on our way to our first stop. From my seat, it was quite scary at times seeing the cliffs next to me. One bad move by the driver, and we ...

... and inspired me to brush up a bit on my own piano playing when I get home!<br><br>Tonight was the Tropical Deck Party night, which was unfortunately rained out as we passed through a few light rain showers out at sea. The party moved to Club Fusion where we watched a huge group of people do the Chicken Dance. We must have just missed the Macarena, haha :) Then, they started a conga line and as soon as it began to approach us, we promptly fled the ...

... best. All day long, mini-vans run the roads. There is no schedule, they simply turn around at the end of their run and start over. Each van has a driver and a conductor who collects the fare. It costs less than one dollar US to board. You can get anywhere on the island, but will have to transfer to another bus if you want to go out of your "section". You don't have to worry about finding a bus - they pass you about one every minute or so. The ...

Our first outing to the cricket. Missed our transfer bus as the clock in the room somehow lost 2 hours over night. People at the hotel were only too happy to help us. It was a good game, with Australia beating Sri Lanka by 7 wickets. Politics of the game are starting to weave its way in. For those that are interested Vaas and Murilitharan were rested so that the Aussie batsman could ...
