After a wonderful Christmas season, we are back in Grenada! We have a truly joyful and relaxing break at home. We got to see a few friends and spend lots of time with family...which is what Christmas is all about! Derek and I racked up with Christmas gifts this year! One of the many exciting gifts we received was a new camera! I practiced using it while we were home and I hope to capture some good pictures of Grenada with it! Unfortunately, I have not had a chance to try out our new camera since we have been back because we have been so busy!
We got back to Grenada on Saturday January 10th, we spent Sunday unpacking, and we started classes on Monday! It has been a real whirlwind!! This term starts with two short classes for us! We are currently taking Genetics and Parasitology. We have our finals for these classes next Monday and Tuesday (January 26 & 27)! On Wednesday (the 28th) we start our normal full semester classes! Also, this semester we are taking a selective (which is kind of an extra class). The selective we are taking is a specialized anatomy dissection. Today was our first day to dissect, we started taking skin off the back. I won't go into any of the details but we enjoyed it! If you want to know more we will be happy to share, let us know!
Our trip back to Grenada was our best trip we have had! American Airlines has started a new flight direct from Miami, which cuts out one flight for us! Our flight schedule was wonderful, we have almost no layover time! It is amazing how better you feel when you get here after having a relaxing day of travel!
This time of the year in Grenada is definitely the best weather! I can not tell you how nice the weather is! It has been in the 80s every day, lower humidity than we are used to, and a nice breeze off the ocean! We could not ask for better weather! It has rained almost every day but it is usually at night and dries as soon as the sun comes up...so it does not really bother us!
Here are a few pictures I took with our new camera while we were home...I practiced with the dogs! I have also been trying to learn how to edit the pictures on the computer, hopefully my pictures will continue to improve!
