One of our earlier excursions was a trip to the Seven Sisters
waterfall. You can get there from Prickly Bay using the local bus service
(Number 1 to the bus station in St Georges and then Number 6 across the
island). It is not a huge waterfall, but refreshing for a swim after a
fairly long hike to reach the falls.

Marty (True Colors) and Andrea, ready to hike
![]() The main swimming pool
Another excursion involved a rum factory visit followed by river
tubing.
![]() The river is not very deep, so there is a fair amount of bouncing off
boulders en route
![]() There are guides to help out if you get stuck in a backwater
We also have our regular Saturday afternoon outing to the Hash House
Harriers, which is often a rather challenging hike. Unfortunately last
weekend Susan (Toi et Moi) slipped and broke her ankle and two local guys had to
half-carry her out of the bush along a river bed. Susan had a temporary
cast applied in Grenada and brought forward her planned flight back to the US,
to have her doctor over there take a look at it.
![]() Fortunately John (Fast Manicou) was wearing an ankle support which he lent
to Susan to support the ankle
![]() Still she had to hobble on it for a mile and a half before we were out of
the bush
