At the beginning of the year, January, 2015, I went to Grenada for a friend's wedding and then went home to Carriacou (pronounced: 'Carry-ah-koo') [13 Square Miles long, neighbouring island] to visit my family and friends and just kick back and relax.
I totally forgot how beautiful my homeland is and I am inviting EVERYONE to go visit.
The following are some of the pictures I took. From left to right:
- The first two pictures were taken on a beautiful plantation estate in Grenada. The owner was lovely enough to allow my friend to have his wedding reception there (at a cost) and it was utterly spectacular.
- The remaining pictures were taken around various parts of my homeland Carriacou; the first being of "Sandy Island" from the tiny airplane I took from Grenada to Carriacou.
- The next three (3) photos were taken around the "Cassada Bay" area and is such a beautiful spot to just gaze from. On a clear day, you can see Grenada in the distance.
- The next three (3) photos were taken from "Paradise Beach" between Lauriston (where my family lives) and L'Esterre (where I went to primary school)
- The final three (3) photos were taken on the way to "Belair"; the first showing Petite Martinique in the distance, a lovely, quiet place to visit, the second showing an old windmill used to process sugar, lime or some other local product 'back in the day' and the final picture is of a cactus plant showing the lovely fruit (I guess) we call 'Ma-ti-gwah'.
It was such a lovely trip for me... saw and spent a little time with my FAVOURITE mother :) and some of my really good friends. Cannot wait to visit again.
Anyone wanting to sponsor my next trip home, feel free to let me know ASAP. (If you don't ask, you won't receive) :)
