hey this is a really great video. I'm from grenada and those are some great aspects of it you have there in the vid... actually i didnt know there were tarantulas here untill a few yrs ago wen i was in sec' school and saw one in my biology lab which got me very surprised and not much ppl have seen dem so wen i told ppl about it they didnt believe me and these days i've been seeing sum out-of-the-ordinary pretty big tarantulas-lookin spiders around my house so i'm researching about them.Thumbs up

I found this video, because I'm trying to find out some more background on Grenada because I will be serving there for the Peace Corps as well in January. This is a really random question....but I saw that picture of the tarantula....did you find them often??

@fatflamingoflies Wonderful to hear, Grenada is amazing! As far as tarantulas...they are not common, in fact everyone I showed them too were surprised to see I had encountered them. Crazy thing is in my time there I found 3 of them in my house...Grenadians call them "24s" or "4 o'clocks" as they believe if bitten by one you will either die in 24hrs or by 4 o'clock:) They never bothered me, and again I was the only PCV to ever see any and even my Grenadian friends had rarely seen them.

This is fantastic, Jordan. I am extending 3 months beyond my COS date so Im happy to hang out a little longer until mid july. I love the sound clips and your own narration to the movie...fantastic!
