ON ON!

It's been forever since I've been hashing here! I really wanted to take Lucy last term, but some how it just never happened. Between her injured paw and then my new interest in diving, we just never got around to going. Not having a car certainly didn't help either.

Today's hash started at BBC beach, also known as Morne Rouge Beach. It's just around the bend from Grand Anse and is a nice protected little bay area. Lucy was pretty nervous with all the people at the beach, including her favorite Grenadians and children. When everyone headed off to start, she didn't really care to be followed so closely in a pack, but once the group started to spread out, she relaxed and by the end of the hike, she was running around with us wagging her tail high in the air. She thought it was pretty great, particularly when I let her off leash for a little bit! Not much harm she can get into when we're on the top of a mountain!

We went all the way from the heart of Grand Anse to the airport, past campus, literally right past our home, and all the way back. We also climbed quite a few mountains in the process! Quite steep going up but not too bad coming down. The start of the hash was directly up and then much to my dismay, much of the final bit was uphill as well. Every time I thought we couldn't possibly go up any further, we'd round the bend and go up some more! We were treated to some gorgeous island views as a result though, wouldn't trade that for anything! It was particularly special to get such spectacular views of the area of the island we inhabit.
