Thanks so much for visiting, friends! Grenada is a very colorful and lesser known Caribbean island - the people are exceptionally friendly. Patti, we were there December 2006 - I have a whole archive of this and several other trips that I haven't done much with, so expect to see more Grenada during the winter months. We could all use a bit of color at this time! #9151842

It's quite a treat to see local color and the only way to have an idea of what the destination is like is to see images like these that show what the locals do. Great image work and it's what my gallery is missing. #9151910
