On Friday of last week Jerod took his last final for term one. Hooray and way to go Jer! Now he has 12 weeks of summer break to spend with us. Since the cost of airfare is so high we decided to stay in Grenada during this time off and look forward to all the fun things we get to do. Yesterday was spent at the U club pool with friends, many who have completed their first 2 years. We were sad to say goodbye but wish them the best of luck, and thank them for their friendship and also for all the stuff they gave us before leaving!
Some of us enjoying the pool ....
and the view.
Today we ate biscuits and gravy with friends for breakfast and then headed to Grand Etang National Park. There we hiked on a muddy and rocky path to the Seven Sisters Waterfalls. When we arrived it was raining fiercely but that didn't stop our adventurous group from making it to the falls (we are in the rainforest at the beginning of rainy season after all). Emma was as happy as can be in her pack on Daddy's back. Here are some photos of our fun day.

Starting the hike. They have hiking sticks you can borrow to help prevent you from falling but according to our friend Blair you shouldn't feel bad if you fall, it's a pretty slippery and muddy trek, hehe!
We made it!
So amazing!
The guys hiked to the top to jump in. The water was freezing!
Feeding the monkeys bananas before heading home. Emma loved seeing these crazy monkeys!

Emma in her pack is the cutest!! Oh and the view!! Wow! I looked into cruises today and thought it'd be fun to stop in Grenada. So far I haven't found anything but if we come could you show us the sights? (It's our twenty year anniversary this year. James knows nothing about my plans for a cruise so I might just be dreaming but it can't hurt to try, can it?)
Cute post! Have a fun 12 weeks!
Aww this looks amazing! I'm so excited to come to this beautiful island! Did you have to leave a dolla for the monkey?
