Sunday was fun, attending a Christmas Bazaar at the True
Blue Resort. This is a pretty resort, small and intimate, just west of Prickly
Bay, Grenada. Since we’re anchored farther east in Clarkes Court Bay, we took a
van over with a bunch of other cruisers. Lots of local artists exhibit their
wares at the bazaar, including many artistic and crafty cruisers that we know:
Vee on Blues Breaker, Cynthia on Minx, Sue on Luludu, and Helen on Iguana.
When we attended two years ago, I bought a couple of pretty shell ornaments
decorated with crystals, and it turns out that I bought them from Sue, though I
didn’t know her then. The resort just opened their new Blue Haven Spa, and Lori
on Reality Check and I received their
very first massages – they were providing free mini-massages to honor the occasion.
Very nice. We browsed and bought a couple of little things – killer guava
preserves and hot pepper jam made from all local ingredients, and a small woven
tray made by a local folks with disabilities – then had a cool libation and chatted with
friends until our ride returned to pick us up. The wind was howling, so the
dinghy ride back to the boat was pretty wet, and we jumped in the water for a
swim before rinsing off.
