A day for lists, sketches, phone numbers, recipes, reminders, ideas, and the old power of writing something down.
The sun is warm on the hillside, and you pull out the woven chair from inside the house and set it under the banana grove. You call to your neighbor, who brings his own, and soon a third chair appears for a passerby. In Kigali, an extra chair is not just furniture; it's a way of saying the conversation is always better with one more voice.
A day for leaving early, finding the route, watching the platform, and giving everyone a little room.
The road to the market is busy with motos and people carrying baskets of beans and sweet potatoes. You walk on the edge, watching for potholes and the occasional stray goat, and you wave to the woman who sells avocados. In Kigali, a careful walk is a dance with the rhythm of the street, and every step is a small prayer for a safe return.
You discover Grenada's endemic species including the Grenada dove, Grenada flycatcher, and various sea turtles nesting on beaches. You see that Grenadian households commonly keep chickens, goats, dogs, and cats as domestic animals.
