Carriacou Flight

This past weekend i had to make a side trip to Carriacou for the day. Normally, i'd take the Osprey and laze around for the hour and a half ride up. Its usually not boring, especially when the water is a little choppy. If you like people watching, then this is a good time to travel on the Osprey...just make sure you have a strong stomach......(Don't stay below. Best place to ride is on top.)

Just watching people change colors on the trip up is amazing. The different shades of green...especially from those who have a drink or two when we leave port.

Anyway, i flew up with SVG Air.
Lots faster, but nowhere near as comfortable.


Went up the east coast, so got a good view of some of the developments happening along that side of the island, and brought my camera. There are lots of photos of the new developments around, but very few (if any ) from the air.

Well, we managed to pass over most of them (which posed some interesting photographic problems). If you don't know what i mean, then try getting a telephoto lens pointed in the right direction when you can't open the window, or have someone's elbow stuck in your ribs (i did mention that those planes are small, didn't i?).

One thing which became pretty obvious, is that, while there is a lot of talk about development, there are actually very few of them where you can actually see something happening.

It could be the usual hype, paint a pretty picture and sell as much as you can before anyone notices, but if these developments actually come off, our island will change.

Lets hope we don't regret it later.
