Tamarind Beach Hotel Canouan

... enough room for two cars, several switch back curves, and either a sheer drop off the cliff's edge or deep storm ditches on either side of the road. Zero room for error. The curves are so bad that cars have to beep before each curve so on coming cars will know they have company. <br><br>Our walk through town was pleasant. We followed our noses (literally) to a restaurant called Brooke's Hideaway. What a gem. Brooke was there to greet ...

... Bay in the lee of Basil's. The black sky above loomed ominously - but not for long, as the sky was darkening at a rapid rate to ebony. What followed has given me confidence and strength. Thorpe Park, Disney, Universal Studios - eat your hearts out. We survived 45 white knuckle minutes with Zoot. For most of those minutes our bums were not in contact with the "seat", whereas out hands were clinging on to various obscure bits of the boat for dear ...

... br>Nothing here is hurried, and a clock or wristwatch is merely an adornment for your wall or arm - certainly no practical use. The pace of life seems to be governed by one of its principal residents - the red-legged tortoise, and his maritime cousin - the turtle. The turtles you don't see so much, but their nests are prolific along the stunning beaches. Their terrestrial counterparts, however, are everywhere ...

... attached to the hillside, which was accessed by a small cable car. On the edge of one of the world's best golf courses, sat our villa, complete with our own personal butler.<br><br><br>Coming in for a Landing!Flying in, the island looked tiny, the airstrip appeared to take up most of it.  A sky blue ATC tower sat festively waiting next to the ...

... dinner and then we all headed to bed that first night. Dinner was good. Most of us ate chicken and potatoes however, some did try the seafood spaghetti. Paul for one!! It had king fish and conk in it and was really good!! We ate at Blue Tropic and the host was great. More later....

... Connie, Bardo, Winston, Junior and Collin. Me and collin got "married". We took a lot of great pictures, but unfortunately my new camera broke :( imagine that right? Thursday we went on boat tour with Micheal and I put my camera in Kyle's pocket; he went into the ocean with it. boo. Some other highlights were snorkling, our boat ride the first night in the dark with 5 foot waves, the ...

... far I am a good paddler, but I don't think you could make it, the waves are too big" I almost believed him, but I thought I'd have a go anyway. I'm glad I did, because the Caribbean definition of 'big waves' and the Aussie definition differ vastly. It did take about 2 hours continuous paddle to get out there, because I was against the current and it was a fair distance. All the Rastas in their red and gold speedboats thought I was ...

We were there right after the hurricane season. Plane prices were right and we got low rate on the car. Since we had a nice time share at the Oyster bay we did not spent too much money. I can say It was a low cost vacation. Please enjoy the movie if you can see, and don't forget to clik on the add right after the short movie.

... ship. Nancy asked our mute deck-hand for a glass of water for Liam, which he interpreted as "baby needs a crib", and brought one up from down below. Liam happily napped in the crib, regaining his colour in the process. We arrived at one of the islands in the uninhabited Tobago Cays and ferried to the beach. The kids had perked up by this time and had a blast running up and down the beach. Zoya pointed out the topless Russian sun ...

... all sorts of injustices you have to deal with on a sailing trip. Being in the sun literally all day meant everyone was getting sunburned despite generous amounts of sunscreen. We all got banged up trying to crew the boat as it rocked back and forth. The worst injustice of all was the Joy showers - with no fresh-water showers available, we bathed in the sea, using Joy dishwashing ...
