To celebrate our first wedding anniversary, CW and I took a trip to Grenada's sister island Carriacou. We traveled via ferry to stay three days and two nights at the Carriacou Grand View Hotel.

Arrival in Carriacou!
Fooling around
A church in Hillsborough
Somebody had lobster for a beach cooked dinner
Coke in tall glass bottles
Enjoying Ann's Place
My lunch was lambie (conch), rice and vegetables, callaloo (like spinach), potato salad with fried plantains.
CW had the same but with pork
Day two began with a swing on the beach

And of course I climbed a tree

Now what? Lets go to Paradise Beach!

I had the lobster! He had the red snapper and we had bacon wrapped scallops for appetizers.

Collecting seashells
Thats our hotel, the Grand View, up on the hill
In the distance is Grenada's third sister island, Petite Martinique
Heading back to Grenada on the ferry
Back on the pier in Carriacou
Our ferry got about 1/4 of the way home and had engine trouble and had to turn around.
The larger ferry came to take us home
Just in time to sail under the Caribbean sunset
CW is not ready to go back to school after our vacation
