Cricket World Cup

Hi everyone,

Katy and I got back last week from a trip to Grenada to watch 3 of the games from the Cricket World Cup. We spend a week on the south Caribbean island alternating days at the cricket and on the beach.

People in Grenana were extremely friendly and the hotel we stayed in wasn't the best but the friendly owner more than made up for it. Local food consists of rice and beans and lamb and chicken curries. It took us a while to find the good food though. Prices were through the roof because of the world cup and the poor locals could hardly affrod to eat, never mind go to the cricket.

The cricket games were a lot of fun. We saw South Africa, West Indies, New Zealand and Sri Lanka play. We have been running a fantasy league with my family, which you can see the results of on Robinson World Cup if you are interested. The finals of the world cup are next Saturday and it should be an interesting game.

I am just hoping your passenger throws off your balance and so your horseshoe tossing is not what it used to be.
