Sunday, March 17, 2024 Well, that was an adventure. We started the day off Sunday quite slowly. I was the first one up at 6 am, so I made coffee and sat in the living room of our place. Nathan was the second one up, and one by one, everyone woke up and collected inContinue reading “Captain, You’re Going the Wrong Way!”

As the Wind Blows, So Does Our Mind!
I’m not so sure about that, at least not yet, but its as good a start to this adventure as we have for five, supremely sleep deprived individuals. Let me take a step back. Last August, on a random Tuesday, I woke up to find the following text message: “Hey Nathan and Anika, I’m planningContinue reading “As the Wind Blows, So Does Our Mind!”
I Guess We’re Friends Now!
Sadly, all adventures must come to an end, and this is our last full day in Grenada. We got up around 6 am and leisurely ate breakfast. The plan today is to walk towards the airport and Magazine Beach. Because its so close to the airport, its not on any bus route, so to getContinue reading “I Guess We’re Friends Now!”
Could End Up in Venezuela!
Holy smokes, did it rain in the night. We woke up to a puddle on the kitchen floor. Not sure where that came from, but Nathan thinks it came in possibly from the outlet the fridge is plugged into. Always a comforting thought. Since we went to the grocery store yesterday, we had yogurt forContinue reading “Could End Up in Venezuela!”
Do You Have the Sandwiches?
We weren’t starting off on a very good foot. Even before Cat Eye dropped us off at the dive shop, we knew we had forgotten our lunch. We had run out of yogurt for breakfast this morning, so we made eggs, and the added prep and clean up time caused for a bit of aContinue reading “Do You Have the Sandwiches?”
Now that’s a scary eel!
Cat Eye was once again waiting for us when we walked down the drive at the appointed time. His taxi has a green paint job, and he’s accentuated it by wearing a green outfit (shorts and t-shirt) green shoes with green laces and even green glasses. Super sharp. He drove us to the dive shopContinue reading “Now that’s a scary eel!”
Huge Lobsters!
It rained again in the night, and it was a little hard to get up this morning. Our place is super cozy and quiet. So much different from last year where we heard party music all night, every night in Utila. Its very easy to sleep here. The air conditioning is swell and the builtContinue reading “Huge Lobsters!”
Burgers and Sandwishes!
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone from Grenada. We woke up to skies that threatened to rain, a rain soaked deck, and an invitation to Friendsgiving back in Colorado. I waited until an appropriate time of day in Colorado to send my regards and regrets. Today’s the day. We finally will get on the dive boat withContinue reading “Burgers and Sandwishes!”
Are you big eaters?
Last night for dinner, we went back to One Love and shared a pizza. Sometimes pizza really hits the spot, but the winner last night was the homemade gelato, made from Grenadian chocolate. Yes, please! Once we got home from dinner it rained pretty heavily, and we were thankful that we were tucked inside. We’veContinue reading “Are you big eaters?”
Nathan on Land, Bob in the Water
Last night’s dinner was Indian food out of a shipping container and it was so good. The Container Park is close to the college and a 10 minute walk from our place. That said, the prices were the highest we’ve seen yet. I guess these college students have bigger budgets than Nathan and I didContinue reading “Nathan on Land, Bob in the Water”
