The heady scents of nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves turn breathing into an exotic experience. Here, too, find mountain waterfalls, white sand beaches and lagoons of mottled blues.
30 C, hot….sunny…. and humid.
We walked the city center, harbour and spice market. Then we were too hot and too tired so we got a cab to take us around the Island. The driver gave us the history and background of life in Grenada while we visited the countryside around the poet city of St Georges, old plantations, forts, beaches and nutmeg trees and spice factories.
We finished the day by finding a tavern where all the cabbies go and had beer and chips while we relaxed and enjoyed the local life.
At 5:00pm were pulled up anchor and headed SE towards the Equator, Brazil and the Amazon. Just in time to miss the Hurricanes forming behind us around Aruba.
