Sea Witch left the exciting festivities of Carnival and headed north to the
quieter shores of Grenada where we spent time at anchor relaxing and exploring
the island.

Unfortunately, this beautiful
island and the lovely people that live here experienced a devastating
hurricane in September 2004. Hurricane Ivan ripped across their island
leaving not much standing. It will take years for recovery.
The cruising community of the eastern Caribbean pulled together to do
whatever they could to help the islanders and the cruisers that were hit so
hard by this disaster. |
