Ava's Tropical Dreams- Bay Hopping!

 🌴Bay Hopping!🌴

Sometimes when I write my blog posts I have no idea how to start it- this is one of these times...

Ok, I will just continue from where I left off on my last blog (Island Tour).

After being in Dragons Bay (where we saw the incredible sunset), we moved around to Grand Anse. Grand Anse is #32 most beautiful beach in the world! We enjoyed playing and swimming there as the beach is really clean and the water is crystal clear. While in Grand Anse, we went to a craft and spice market on the beach. On Saturday, we also went to the St George markets, which was really cool.


 




 Next door to Grand Anse is Morne Rouge, which we anchored in after Grand Anse. While staying in Morne Rouge, we had some of our friends over for dinner and played many games of Uno! 

After exploring the bays in the south west of Grenada, we moved back to Woburn to see our friends. We had 3 lovely days of playing at Le Phare Bleu with all the kids. While staying there we went on a school trip to the Belmont Estate, which is a chocolate factory, with the rest of the kids. To get there, there was 9 of us in a 5 seater car, which was hilarious!  We saw and learnt how chocolate was made. There was also animals there, one of them being baby tortoises, which we held! After the tour we had a massive buffet lunch at a restaurant there. The day after we went to Belmont Estate, we went to Tower Estate. There we learnt about many flowers and plants and afterwards had afternoon tea with lots of friends. I found it kind of weird as it was just like afternoon tea in England just the weather was much hotter! We even had blue tea! Blue tea is tea that is made from blue flowers grown on the estate! My mum thought it tasted like lemon, however it reminded me of lemon and honey.

9 in one car!

 After Woburn, we moved to a bay, which we had never been to! It is called Hartman bay. While being in Hartman bay, we were surprised at how windy it was. My sister and I built a den on the deck, despite how windy it was, and were trying to persude our parents to let us sleep in it! They said no 😭😂. 


What next...

On Friday, today, we are moving back round to Morne Rouge to see some other friends. We will be staying there for a few days and then probably go back to Grand Anse as we love it there! 

Thank you so much for this blog post! As ususal, the next blog post will be on Friday. I hope you are enjoying my blog posts. Speek soon, Ava 😁

Ava's Tropical Dreams- Buying a boat, Selling possessions, Moving out...

Buying a boat, Selling possessions, Moving out... Hi, I am Ava Lacey. I am 11 years old and live in England (at the moment). I am making a blog because I am moving abroad and want everyone to come on the adventure with me. Behind the adventure  My parents used to work on boats before I was born, my mum was a chef and my dad was a captain. They worked in Canada, Florida and the Caribbean. Before I was born they moved back to England, which was where my dad used to live, to Silverstone Village. When I was one they moved to Greens Norton which is where I have lived for 10 years now. My dad worked for an underwater boat light company called Lumishore, while my mum carried on being a chef (but just on land). It has always been their dream to buy a boat of their own when they retired and me and my younger sister, Thea, were at university.       Why are we moving?   Last year, my dad was listening to a podcast about a family of 6 who moved from their home (in Aust...

Ava's Tropical Dreams- No going back

 No going back... On Sunday, we deep cleaned our house as the renter moved in this week.  Please bear in mind that this was not your daily clean like we are used to, this was a 'clean every inch of the house' deep clean.  That meant we had to clean all of the windows, which I do not recommend after cleaning 53 of them! Hoover every single room and the stairs (which is actually not as bad as the window cleaning) and make sure the toilets were sparkling -which my mum did.  At least, we are pretty much finished.  Where are we right now? As we have just deep cleaned the house and the renter moved in this week, my grandparents have very kindly let us use their house as they have gone on holiday to Wales. All of our things are now here with us at my grandparents house. What can we take?  Now, for anyone who does not know, a boat is not as big as a house (even if the boat has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms) so we can not take everything we own. We have already given a...

Ava's Tropical Dreams- Lots of exploring and a week on the dock...

Lots of exploring and a week on the dock... I have done lots of things that I need to tell you about! First of all, in my last blog (at the end) I told you that we were going to go back to Woburn Bay. However, that did not happen as lots of our friends were going back to Morne Rouge on their own boats so we decided to go with them. We had another fun filled weekend at Morne Rouge with lots of swimming and playing.  While we were there, we visited the underwater sculpture park. The underwater sculpture park is an area of sea, which was by a coral reef, where there are lots of statues of people and objects underwater! It was really cool and my favourite statue was a man that was sat at his desk with a computer in front of him! We also saw a massive leather back turtle!  After visiting Morne Rouge we went to Le Phare Bleu to stay on our boat at the marina as my dad went for a work trip and my grandpa is visiting. We haven't seen him in 2 years! It's our first time staying in the ...
