Fort
George
After a bimble around the museum we
started a slow walk up the incredibly steep hill toward Fort George.
   No sooner than we had got going and
assessing the steep climb behind Bear, than the
heavens opened, we took shelter and waited, then off
again.
   The view from the top was amazing,
Bear with the marina over his left shoulder and the container ship dock
(opposite Beez Neez) over his right. The Grenada Police training School. Bear
showing the arrow - shows which way the pointy bit
goes.
   The sign.
Bear off in search of the plaque. A little alarming
to see bullet holes above number 36's
door.
      A four pound
gun, registration number and a pretty little green chap taking a nap on a
canon
   Supplies
Department is open Monday to Friday 08:00 to 13:00,
funny watching a policeman coming out with his newly acquired megaphone. Bear thought he had found me the rare Grenada Dove -
No
 View from the
top
   View looking down to the newly made beach at the entrance to Port Louis. Evidence left by the firing squad. Bear still pointing with the anchorage behind
him
 The memorial
plaque
Time to go down and explore the
town.
ALL IN ALL FASCINATING THAT A
TOURIST SPOT IS A WORKING PLACE YOU CAN WANDER AROUND.
