We came to St. Vincent, in part, because over the past two years Service Canada College, where Kathy used to work, has been involved in a partnership with some Caribbean countries. Those countries sent managers of social services programs to Regina to participate in the Service Excellence training that Service Canada has been delivering to all its front line staff. They were assessing how useful this training might be for their organizations in the Caribbean. Three women from St. Vincent, Mineva Glasgow, Dawn Small and Nicole Joseph, attended the training in Regina and we decided to come to St. Vincent to visit them and see a bit of their country.
Mineva greeted us warmly at the airport and took us on a short whirlwind tour of Kingstown, the Botanical Gardens and Fort Charlotte. This is the view of Kingstown and the harbour from Fort Charlotte. There was one cruise ship in the harbour the day we arrived but we haven't seen another one since then.
