Day 7 - Beaching Day

Friday, our last full day.

It started like every morning here in Grenada, beach weather.

We decided that the right thing to do is to Chill-Lax-Laze on the beach.












I went exploring again and climbed the hill northeast of our resort. I was wearing a swimsuit and sandals so did not go too far, but got some nice pictures of the resort from the top of the hill.

From this picture you can see how large the resort really is. The main terrace area has the red roof on the left and the pool house is on the point by the ocean. Sandals is down the beach in the distance.













It is an all inclusive resort, but we still get exercise.  There are three different routes back to our rooms; regardless you will climb at least 50 stair steps and as many as 67 steps, then another flight of stairs because we are on the second floor of the C building.

The complex is about 30 acres, so we got a good bit of walking in even though we spent a lot of time on the beach. I wore my fitbit most of the week, but not all. Of course it comes off for any water activity.





From the morning beach laze, we wandered up to the pool for our second feeding of the day.  We are now like baby birds, every few hours we expect to be fed...and they do a fine job of that here.

Letting our lunch settle by the pool.

















After lunch we got some exercise laid on the beach some more.

We did take the Hobie Cat out for another spin, Jean and Donna this time...Jean got another layer of burn.

We eventually got up the energy to move down the beach.....closer to the ocean side bar Trader's.  The girls and Bob played in the waves a bit more but we were generally pretty lazy.

It was another prefect weather afternoon.











For dinner we decided to try the Asian restaurant at the resort. It requires a reservation and is a bit more formal than Cinnamon's. It was not five star but we had a nice meal topped off by a fantastic dessert, banana something.

We ended the evening as usual on Tamarind Terrace.














It was a great week. We had fun, met a lot of interesting people, all got along quite well and generally had a lovely (our Brit friend David's influence) time.

All good things come to an end, we had our time in the sun while the winter back home was hanging on. Monday we have to return to reality, but with just a bit more of a jump in our step...we will make it to spring now.
