I am becoming familiar with Grenada after two days of roaming around downtown. I figured out how to navigate from my friend’s house to downtown: just let gravity take over, i.e downhill!!! Just like any ancient European city, Grenada has a rich history especially that it changed hands between Muslims and Christians.
The purpose of this blog is to keep my friends and family informed during my adventures around the world. I try to write daily stories and observations whenever possible. Most importantly I post pictures for everyone to enjoy. Click on the pictures for full screen view!! No comments are allowed on this blog, but one can always send me an email regarding the blog. Enjoy the pictures and forgive my typos and English mistakes... I am on vacation OK!!
