An Island Hopping Adventure
Next, we got to Grenada, ‘The spice isle.’ A very
beautiful and mountainous island that boasts the
most spices in the Caribbean region. They are
famous for the nutmeg. This spice is used in the
production of a lot of drinks and desserts. It’s an
island great for adventure which boasts the great
Grand Anse beach, one of the longest beaches in
the Caribbean.
Grenada is very beautiful and full of fun but we
hopped on to our next stop which was St Vincent
and the Grenadines. The first question I asked my
dad was why it’s St Vincent and the Grenadines and
not Grenada and the Grenadines. He said, ”Son
your guess is as good as mine, that happened way
before my time.”
We flew over several islands before we got to the
main island St Vincent. This island, I understand, is
famous for products like sugar, flour, cement and
also for exporting bananas. It’s not a very big island
but when you add the Grenadines to it, it could be
very big.
