My first week here was amazing! We toured the whole island, which is possible because it’s so small. However, it seemed so much bigger during our tour! We were able to visit all of the coast and 9 out of the 11 parishes. The island itself is absolutely beautiful. We had a traditional meal which include mac pie, local fish and other common food eaten on the island. Lunch was amazing. I enjoy tasting all of the different local fishes. The photo was taken on the east coast of the island which is the side connected to the Atlantic Ocean. This spot was filled with tourists viewing the large boulders and locals selling different trinkets such as necklaces, bracelets, cover ups (pictured in the back) and country flags.
