Plant a rock and watch it grow!

This was something that was told to us on our tour to Grand Etang.  I really like it though!

This is a common saying in Grenada (apparently) and it refers to how lush everything is!  It's so fertile that you could "plant a rock and watch it grow".  I am beginning to wonder if that is how this island got here.  It's too pretty to have formed in any sensible way.  The only explanation is fertile magic!

 The tour included a waterfall (Annandale Falls) and a muddy hike in a volcanic crater that is now filled with a "bottomless" lake!

The fall had touristy jumpers that you were supposed to leave a tip for.  You could also jump in the water if you were prepared or willing to be wet back on the buses.  Mark and I stuck our feet in and climbed on some rocks!

Also at the falls, there were a few trails that lead around some of the vegetation!  This was a great place to get photos of the pretty flowers!!

Here are some photos of us on the hike!  This was the muddiest some people have ever been!  We wore water shoes and didn't mind it much.  The top was pretty breathtaking!  :)
