It was a beautiful day for a beach day. Last night we went to one of the other marina restaurants for dinner. Turns out Tuesday is trivia night. The girls really wanted to play... and surprisingly they are pretty good at it. Fun fact - Olivia named our trivia team

Fun fact - Grenada has two seasons: dry season (January to May) and wet season (June to December). It's not quite June yet, but the rain has started. We were cooped up for two days on the boat while it rained pretty much all day. As a bonus.

This week was the Grenada Chocolate Festival. Saturday was family day. There was a make your own chocolate ball station, painting, face painting and kids yoga. We ran into a couple other families we know, so the girls had a great time with some friends. Fun fact - Grenada is

Do we stay, or do we go? That was the question this morning when we got up. We decided we were ready to head back to Grenada for the next couple weeks. It was a beautiful 6 hour sail. We've been pretty impressed with how well the girls

Good weather was forecast for Thursday, so we decided it was time to move on to the next island in Grenada. But first we had to get around the active volcano in the ocean. That is not a joke. Fun fact - there is actually an active volcano in the

Today we decided to be tourists and signed up for a full day tour. We started at a waterfall, followed by a chocolate factory, rum distillery and ended at a national park. The tour pretty much took us around the entire island and to places we haven't been

Saturday we made good on a deal we had with Emma and went back to the waterfall she couldn't swim in when she hurt her foot. She was one very happy girl. They spent hours jumping and swimming, we had lunch and then they spent more hours jumping

We probably went to 1 (maybe 2) farmer's markets before coming to Grenada. Here we know the farmer's market schedules, who has the best stuff, when the lady sells the juice out of her van and have been to many roadside stands for fresh produce. We&
