Starting to get excited! - Wedding Forum

We have 73 days to go until the wedding and three days after that we'll be lazing on the beach in Grenada!!

I've just started making a wee list of things that we want to see and do... I'm fairly sure that we'll start suffering from cabin fever around about day 10 (even if it is the honeymoon!) if we're not outside seeing things!!

We want to go whale and dolphin watching on a catamaran (haven't been on the sea since I was a littleun but I don't remember getting sick - who knows!)
Visit a chocolate factory - the Grenada Chocolate company makes its own chocolate from its own cocoa plantation using solar powered machinery! How fab is that??? Needless to say I will be sampling their wares extensively

A rum distillery - so many to choose from, we might have to do them all

Grand Etang Lake - this is a crater lake and has hijking trails all around it. I'm not sure we'll be feeling that energetic but it would be fun to hike in the rainforest with a guide.
Oh! And I want to swim in a pool at the base of a waterfall a la Bounty Ads! There are seven beautiful waterfalls to choose from too!!

I'm really looking forward to the whole thing

Dave's never been to the Caribbean (and I've never been to Grenada) so it'll be fun wandering around together without bumping into obscure relatives (its very disconcerting to be wandering around Barbados only to bump into someone who immediately recognises you because "you have your grandmother's eyes" and couldn't possibly have known you were visiting the island!)

We've wimped out and gone all-inclusive (mainly for Dave's sake) so that means that we have to go back next year room only and explore all the restaurants

Grenada, here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not the least bit green with envy! (well perhaps a little bit).

It sounds absolutely idyllic and you sound so excited - how cool is that!

The next few days are going to whizz by. Remember to show us photos when you get back (and don't forget to take your bounty bar for the waterfall shot!

)
