... and whipped up the most amazing beef Rotis. The Curry seasoning was to die for and Brooke was such a nice hostess. We knew instantly that Brooke's would be a regular stop for us this week. Ironically, we grabbed a local newspaper and found a prominent article about Kim, the marine biologist that we met at Bay Hills Tower (Bailey's place) in St. Vincent. Kim is working with the local island governments to help map the waters of the ...

... to say the least….the guide led us at a steady pace as we passed through the rain forest with towering bamboo etc. providing much needed shade. A stop at a flowing stream was very welcome too – but when we were told this was a quarter of the way up – I nearly gave up! But pride is a marvellous motivator, so it was onward and upward, and upward, and upward, until the half way point, where we met a party on the way down who looked shell ...

... a plantation) - the accommodation was wonderful(we were the only guests) and the horrors of the journey were forgotten in a short time.We only had 2 days and so we explored the beaches and enjoyed the hotel - we liked what we saw - very unspoilt, very pretty, beautiful beaches and not the least bit touristy apart as a stopping place for lots of posh yachts touring the Grenadines. We were so lucky with the weather - every time we went inside for ...

... the Christmas season is over or I'd be screwed. As it is I get my life back for under $300, so it could be worse. I go back to Paramaribo to catch a flight out, wanting nothing so much as to just leave, and never come back. I've seen some sloppy operations in my life but this is a cake-taker to be sure. To make it worse the mini-van driver has 80's pop-schlock greatest hits playing at a full gigabel all the way back, over and over, grinning like some ...

... sales. We stayed in Mayreau specifically to go to the church service on Sunday at the pretty little church with rough-hewn rocks and timbers. We asked two girls who were on the church grounds what time the service was. One said she thought it was 9:00 or maybe a little earlier, maybe 8:30. OK. Sunday morning we launched the dinghy and headed in to shore to begin the climb to church. We arrived at the church at 8:30 and were greeted by a woman who said they were almost ...

I'm down in Villa Beach in St Vincent, relaxing by the beach after a busy few days. After leaving St Lucia I flew into the Vincy capital of Kingstown, and immediately jumped on the ferry down to the Grenadine island of Bequia (beck-way). It was Easter Saturday, and the ferry was jumping, the bar was open and everyone was having a blast. I met a whole bunch of people of Barbados and Trinidad who told me that, at Easter time, Bequia is the place to be. What a delightful ...

... isolated, award-winning yet understated property does not focus on the beach. Rather, it is an ideal place for those seeking peace, quiet, and delicious West Indian food in informal, aesthetically pleasing surroundings www.springonbequia.com, 784-458-3414). For Your Safety Bequia takes pride in its relatively crime-free existence. Although whiffs of marijuana can be smelled regularly, the sale of it is rather ...

... I would give away clues of the storyline and why we were rowing, but if I do, Disney has the rights to my first born. Let me say now, there is nothing on earth wierder than Hollywood, I couldn't say that before because I never experienced it, but now I have, and say it, I certainly can! Six of us extras quickly got together and formed the Knot Club (so called because in our spare time, we practised tying knots- clever use of the term eh?) Though I think Rat-Pack would ...

... Island, and made a good impact I think. Two Thursdays ago, it being Kareoke night (Kareoke is HUGE here, 2nd only to Japan) we went the rangers and their families to WATCH, see what I've written here? To WATCH the Kareoke, that was my plan and I was sticking to it, just a couple of beers, and WATCH, JJ and Albert the Rangers thought I looked like a boy with a sweet voice, so they produced a $90US (a huge amount here) bottle of whiskey for us to drink, and proceeded to ...

... waving and shouting out as you pass by.We went up to the top of the island,along a very narrow road[if you could call it that] and were rewarded by fantastic views all around,we could see petite martinique nearby and sandy island further away.What a great day ,we boarded the osprey and headed towards grenada,nodding off to sleep now and again,it,s surprising how a hard day lazing around can make you so sleepy!!!
