10 (Almost) Secret Caribbean Islands

[phkrause]

Pirate hideouts and pink-sand beaches. Local culture untouched by cruise ships and crowds. This is the Caribbean the world doesn't yet know. Far off the mainland, floating in endless expanses of deep blue sea, find 10 secret islands that are practically perfect for escapists, adventurers, and vacationers who simply don't want to be found.

While not on that list, in 1983, responding to the invitation of President Regan, I spent 33 days on the island of Grenada. Part of the interest to me was the SDA elementary school of some 400 students, most not SDA, located in the capitol City.

That school was of interest in that it had a Marxist teacher on the staff that had been placed there by the government. You know we sometimes do not realize the freedoms that we have where we live. I once lived in an Asian country where the SDA college was deeply regulated by the government.

The school had so many students that the desks were literally touching each other. If a student needed to leave, outside of a scheduled break, that student would have to walk across the tops of the other desks.
