Island of Spice

Today we had packed day of sightseeing.  The Rotary clubs arranged for us to have a driving tour through the island.  Our first Stop was Concord Waterfall, it was stunning, we were all a bit disappointed we were unable to leap from the top of the waterfall and swim! (It is allowed but we were unprepared)  We then travelled to a Dougaldston Estate where we were educated on all the local spices that Grenada is known for, primarily Nutmeg, Basil, Mace, Cinnamon, & more. 

We had a delicious lunch at Belmont Estate where they are known for the local chocolate and goat cheese.  After lunch we headed to Rivers Rum Distillery, had a tour and of course got to sample some very strong rum!  We had a few more stops along the way through the forest, a quick hike, and before we knew it the day was over!
