Lovely article. I worked in Grenada for a short while and always regretted that I didn’t get to explore the island properly. My apartment was at the top of a building on a hill overlooking the Carenage – near the Catholic and Anglican churches – with a view of miles of Grand Anse Beach. That was the best part of being there for me. I also enjoyed being serenaded by the church bells striking the hours, and soon got used to it. Walking down the steep Market Road to the newspaper office where I spent my days – and many nights – was perilous in my heels, so I found an alternative route down several flights of stairs connecting roads on two levels…

When I left the job I spent a quiet week at a hotel on Grand Anse and walked on the beach every afternoon. This post brought back good memories of Grenada that I wasn’t aware I had!

Cynthia If your friend lives in Gouyave, I am sure she is an excellent Grenadian cook

Thanks Aka! This was the first time I really paid attention to the new lens, back in September, using it exclusively for the 10 days I was in Grenada. Was very hard to take the old kit lens to Kaieteur last week

I have not been online much as I am at home in Trinidad, where I now have a new nephew born on New Year’s day!

I have never been to Grenada and my only excuse is “??”

Happy New Year!
