The Spice Ladies at the Careenage in St. George, Grenada

Riding the local buses

Searching for the double rainbow after a shower

Your first glimpse of the islands from the window on the plane

Coconut palm plantations

Black sand beaches on the volcanic islands

White sugar sand beaches on the coral islands.

Your last view of the islands from the plane, with the knowledge you WILL return.

vinceygirl, I have to agree with that double rainbow after a shower. I still can't help but pull out my camera every single time I see it.

I'll also add "a moonbow" over the Caribbean Sea at 5 a.m. after a night time rain. There is nothing like seeing that rare white arch across the sky, dipping into the ocean on either end. Sigh....

A full moon, white glow shimmering over the water giving off just enough light to outline other islands in the distance.

Statia don't believe I've ever seen a moonbow but will certainly search for it my next trip.

Here's another, not necessarily pretty but fascinating......watching a helicopter land and take-off from one of the yachts moored off Young Island.

Water rushing from the hills after a rain turning a pleasant little brook into a raging torrent.

Watching a rain storm come across the sea right be fore your eyes yet not a drop of rain on you.

Shoppingin the actual towns not the tourist attractions.

Market day in downtown Kingstown, St. Vincent
