St George’s, the capital, is centred on another harbour with a careenage (harbour for tipping the ships over for hull cleaning) from the days of the British-French battles for the Caribbean islands, with Fort George sitting atop one of the hills that surround it. C&W’s office on the careenage was rather attractive. The town is quite cramped and hilly and still shows some damage from Hurricane Ivan in 2004, which did a lot of damage. After a cold drink in a bottle shop with planes on the ceiling made from beer cans, we found the National Museum and had a look around before returning to the hotel and beach for a lazy afternoon. It was rather hot for too much wandering around.
