This Cubana Airlines AN-26 tells a story beyond aviation—it’s a symbol of Cold War tensions that played out in the Caribbean. Shot down where it sat and left behind during the 1983 U.S. invasion, Operation Urgent Fury, it now stands as a striking reminder of Grenada’s past.

Perched on the cliffs overlooking the Atlantic, Azenhas do Mar feels like a postcard brought to life. 🏘️🌊 This charming seaside village, with its red rooftops and natural ocean pool, is the perfect blend of serenity and beauty. Portugal, you’ve stolen my heart yet again! 💙

Two views, one from below, with the sanctuary shrouded in a wispy purple dusk fog, and one from on top of the mountain taken from the other side of the sanctuary.
