CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES RETURN TO GRENADA AFTER 15 YEARS ...  
Carnival Cruise Lines returned to Grenada for the 2014/2015 cruise season on Tuesday, November 4, 2014 after an absence of fifteen years. The Carnival Splendor berthed for the first time from 8:00am to 4:00pm at Melville Street Cruise Terminal with a passenger capacity of three thousand and two (3,002). The return of Carnival Cruise Lines marked a significant achievement of the public-private partnerships and ongoing discussions initiated at the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association Cruise Conference & Trade Show 2013 in Cartagena, Colombia. The Grenada Tourism Authority welcomed the visitors in the spirit of Grenadian culture: steel pan music, energetic dances, and rum and chocolate tastings. In a plaque exchange ceremony onboard the ship this morning, Ms. Sybil Alexander, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation expressed her gratitude to the captain and crew of Carnival Splendor and conveyed positive expectations for future partnerships with the popular cruise lines. Ms. Alexander also emphasised why Pure Grenada—The Spice of the Caribbean is right for the adventure-seekers aboard the Carnival Cruise Lines. Carnival is a popular brand, known to offer fun-loving cruises for young adults, couples, and families. This was the first call for Carnival Cruise Lines since the construction of the new cruise terminal in 2005 which has a total berthing area of 375 metres and a finger pier with berthing on both sides. The 8-day Eastern Caribbean cruise began in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and ends in Miami, Florida, USA. Carnival Triumph is scheduled to berth on 17 February, 2015 at the Melville Street Cruise Terminal.

CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES RETURN TO GRENADA AFTER 15 YEARS ...  
Greetings my brothers and sister today is a strange day after the so call NNP Chief King Claudius Mitchell ministerial Re-shuffles and to quote an old saying -a Week is a Long Time In Politics- and and just by looking at the outgoing and incoming of this shuffle,Grenadians now you know that and it is right to say that anyone who feels that they are Bigger or Smarter than the Chief will be chop down like chopping onions ,now take the Minister for Tourism and it is fair to say some would say that she was doing a dammed good job with the tools that was at her disposal,but like the dictator who once ruled Rome he Kcm will do what he has to do to rid anyone who he believe will stand in his way of his planned One Party State,on the other hand the demotion of Mrs A.O.Bailey hey whats going on here,as for that lady Miniser of Health some would say it is about time and again that Ex Motor car spare parts salesman from Foreign Affairs Minister to Minister of Health says all about what is going on in Grenada under this dictator,and what about the promotion of the two rats in the camp Mr Cheater the cat and Peter (Real democracy betrayer) David being promoted into the Senate,some may ask is this their payment of Thirty Pieces of Silver for betraying the voters of grenada and their aspiration that some day they will be sitting on the high chair of a dictatorship led by the Chief dictator himself Mr Kcm ,now check this out of all the movers and shakers he Kcm still remains in charge of the Nation purse string ,The Money is Mine Man. Again i see that one of the hangers on the so call Minister of non-implimentation,one Mr Kenny Lalsingh the businessman who currently owns half of St.Patrick Low Town was given the boot and news on the street is it has something to do with shady dealings with investor/investors and my mind reminds me of those so call investor/investors waiting to do business re the development of that -PORT -Project, hey the plots thickens,Now where does that leave our country at this present time for example demoting the one bright spark that was in that dreadful Government The Minister of Tourisum and brining in someone green in that field(pardon the punt)and it all points to something rotten going on in this rotten government,a government who came into power on promises of beter days ahead,fewer borrowing,better health care for all our citizens,taking care of our school children,also promising to unite our country of its political divide, yet today we are witnessing the same old NNP of Greed ,egocentric,spiteful,and a dead hatred for the working classes here in Grenada especially folks from the rural and agriculture area, hence the current Ministrial make up of this Government of Keith Mitchell ,now for these men Peter David and Bro.Chester the cat Humphrey both now senators and what has happened to Mr Gilbert,suprised no for it is sometimes said that in some politicans drive to the top some find themselves ridding with the devil as is the case of PD and C.H. having been elevated to sitting on that Right and Left hand of their Master Mr Kcm as was displayed during the crucifixion of Christ and again in the part they both played in the downfall of the R.H.illman Thomas Government,yes the road to political high seats here in Grenada is littered with Jockeys and Riders and Pirates at the cost of our unsuspected voters at the hands of some rotten politicans who is only in the business of politics to furthering their financial pockets.
