So,
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 ...

My name is Rachelle, and I wear sport sandals

... to get on the bus, but we were parked on the side of the street in a town of maybe 200 people. C'mon, like seriously. Then we got to Mombacho, and walked up to the tour booth in order to pay for our hike. So, because we are keeners, all three of us agreed that we should just walk up to the top on the road rather than pay the extra ten dollars to take the shuttle. The guys who worked there must have just been thinking "****ing gringos." We walked 1000m up in ...

Grenada ......hidden jewel in the Caribbean perfec

... houses of some local people perch precariously on the sides of the hills, defying gravity and anyone who goes near them to attempt to reach them. The island has a very strong history dating back to when Columbus first sailed the seas around the Caribbean and named it Conception originally, with evidence of the political struggles that it has faced through the years including the constant changing of ownership from the British to the French which is evident still through the ...

Spice Island - Grenada

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 & 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 ...

Grenada's highlights & scenic drive

... the beach and the palm trees. The site was postcard beautiful. With excitement, I kept running around here and there taking pictures since we only had a few minutes. Once back in the van, we noticed that something was smelling terrible but we all kept our mouths shut thinking who was it. Finally, the driver spotted the guilty person. It was Mi. Unknown to him, he had stepped on some dog's poo while walking on the beach ...

Grenada part deux

... one in the world for nutmeg. Right now they are number three. We were told that the island is 80% recovered from that devastating storm. There are many homes that are new, however many others that have had to be abandoned. The contrast between the two next-door to each other is striking. We had lunch in an old church - up some crumbly concrete steps that made me wonder what we were getting ourselves into. Our jerk pork and chicken meals were ...

Grenada - land of the pissed Antipodean

After a few weeks of quite, solo travelling through laidback mountainous regiuons of small islands, I decided it was time to get down to Grenada and check out some cricket. I skipped my two nights in Carriacou, and caught the ferry down to Grenada. On the ferry, the cricket mood was apparent. Sri Lankans and Indians, one fat South African, and myself were standing on the bow drinking rum and talking cricket. Once I got into St George, I fully ...

... well, just coz it seemed to be the thing everyone was doing, even tho i didnt know where i would want to drive afterwards! So, this takes us to about 2pm, 10 hours to go...oooooh. hmm, well we got bored of sitting in the flat after about an hour and everyone just started doing their own thing, like going for a walk etc. It was eary outside tho, very quiet apart from the banging of people boarding up their windows. Quite a strange experience as well, coz its the sort ...

... a day, just so nice to cool off. But the sun is lethal here. Burnt my feet to buggery after not puting enough cream on them, but other than that have done ok at staying not burnt. Its odd how things here are priced, some things are cheap, yet some things are REALLY expensive. Food is horrendously expensive. Eg a yellow pepper will cost about 2 pounds. Lol, i bought a curry sauce, one u would get in tescos and that cost about 5 pounds!! Its difficult to 'find' the local quisine. Amy ...
