Our trip was
w timed justt after Hurricaane Tomas strrafed the Les ser Antilles, aand we were thankful we ddidn’t
visit St. Lucia,

which took a direct hit
h from the sttorm. Damagge was evidennt on both Greenada and St.
Vincent, mostly
m
in the form of down
ned trees; we didn’t encouunter any traveel difficultiess. The storm aalso
affected our
o ability to make
m
a few laast minute trip
