We arrived after our 25 minute flight from Trinidad to find Doug had booked us an amazing resort for our short stay here. We overlook a white sandy beach which is about 20 feet from our balcony. Last night we went to sleep to the sounds of the waves from the Caribbean sea.
This morning we took a tour of the capital St George where we visited the fort which had a wonderful view over the inner harbour which was once a volcano pool.
The fort was the where the Prime Minister Maurice Bishop was killed on October 19th 1983, which resulted in the U.S. invading the island to bring order..
We then went into down town St George to the spice market, our guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt so much about the local produce as well as the wide variety of local spices which are not only used in cooking but are medicinal also.
After lunch we spent time in the sea and a long walk along the beach.
