We rented a car today and drove around Grenada. We visited two different waterfalls. google maps took us to a wrong spot for Concord Falls. But there was a trail that we took for Lovely driving along the west coast and up to Gouyave where we had a nice lunch at Kelly's Hotspot. She served lots of fresh vegetables and a yummy mahi mahi and tuna dinner. Then we drove to Seven Sisters Waterfalls. Warren was our guide at Seven Sisters. We didn't need a guide but it's slow season and we decided to give a boost to a local. Warren was very personable and informative. We had a lovely cold swim in the pool beneath the falls. It's a 2 hour walk up to the other falls so another time.

We did our first HASH today. People come from all over Grenada to walk or run a course set in a community on the island. Today's run was a strenuous course up and down steep hills for 2 hours. Beautiful scenery through forests, farms, along creeks and even a waterfall. Mt. CARMEL Waterfall Battle Hill Union St Andrews. Ending with music, BQ , and beer. We had a busload of fun boaters. This is a weekly event in different parts of the island. Al and I earned a certificate as virgin HASHERs complete with a beer bath. Traditional rum shop (bar) stops on way home.

We went to the end of season OCC (Ocean Cruising Club ) lunch today in Grenada. Met a boat we helped dock back in Nazare Portugal last September. Never know where you'll meet up again. Riding the bus was an experience. It took over an hour to get back by bus but only 10 minutes by car on the drive over.

We did an overnight from Grenada to Trinidad. No pirates but lots of wind. We ended up motor sailing as the seas/current were stopping the boat. We are at Coral Cove Marina until we haul out May 17. Went out for a Bake & Shark sandwich. Pictures approaching Boca Moro Trinidad.
