How often do you wake up and see a Gecko crawling up the wall? It is a common sight in the tropics. Of course they eat insects and bugs so it ‘s a good thing, right? It is, only if you are accustomed to such creatures. It definitely feels like an invasion of sorts just to watch them scurrying about. My hero is my husband who captured the little creature before it disappeared.

Have you ever experienced both spiritual battles as well as God’s blessing all in the same day? When we arrived in Grand Cayman things seemed to be turning upside down. It appeared we would not be able to rent a car as we had planned due to several issues with our driver’s licenses. Although Satan meant for it to be a deterrent God was in control!

Dominica is a land of lovely, unspoiled beauty. Waterfalls, fresh water lakes, volcanoes, a boiling lake and black sand comprise the beauty of the island, but poverty meets one’s eye almost everywhere you look. No fancy hotels line the beautiful coastlines, but instead guest houses and seaside cottages. The ridges of the lush green mountains are dotted with small houses.

The stunning beauty of the island of St. Lucia brings new meaning to the words of the old hymn, “How Great Thou Art”. It makes one stand in awe of who God is and all that He has created. The Twin Pitons, one of the great wonders of the world are found on the island. These two mountain peaks stand majestically side by side as if in praise to their Creator.

Grenada is the spice island of the Caribbean. The wonderful aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, curry and cloves heighten the senses and make one breathe deeply of the fresh sweet smells. One of the first sights you will see in Grenada is hundreds of sailboats docked at the beautiful harbors along the white sand beaches. That sight is enhanced by the beautiful pastel colored houses lining the hillside.
