GRENADA - Well, Grenada was absolutely GORGEOUS, but we couldnt wait to get the heck out. The place was loaded with pretty colonial buildings, cobblestone streets, and had green parrots twittering in the boughs over parque central. But the locals werent too keen on gringos. Nothing hostile mind you (dont worry mom!) but there were no smiles, and certainly no friendly chatting. We actually had a small child growl at us at one point (the adults refrained, but barely). Actually, perhaps it was because Americans and Europeans were purchasing all the property and the Nicas could no longer afford homes in Grenada. Hmmm... maybe Id growl too.

Heres a few pics anyways...

This is the cathedral on the central park.



A hallway of one of the colonial buildings along the park.



And... another building on the park. We liked the park!




Well, to be fair, we did meet a couple of friendly people. Tom and I decided to buy a couple of homeless guys dinner, and they were very nice.
