Today is another big carnival day! (aren't they all?!). Everyone who is taking part in the 'mas' (masquerade), put on their full costume (or lack of them, apparently, most use it as and excuse to wear... not a lot!)and parade through the streets of the ... Read more >

We are raring to go! We are following Chris's band today, The All Stars. We get down to the pan yard, which is 'down town'. (It has to be said, we wouldn't go there on our own). There are already about 20 people gathering.
They ... Read more >

Slept quite well, considering we are on the main road and cars are speeding up the road all night and dogs seem to be everywhere. (Why do you never hear them, during the day?. Matt managed to sneak 6 cards or so, over for me, which was a nice surprise.... Read more >

Had a great night, last night, watching Chris's band practice with Karen and Joyce. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, (considering I think we the only whites there!). Very cheap bar, (2 beers and 1 extremely strong rum and coke 3.40). When the ... Read more >

Monday 13th Feb Out for 9 a.m. (Early start!) We go up the north coast, passing some beautiful beaches, right up into the hills and rainforest. The roads are very dodgy in places, narrow with potholes, oh, and the odd landslip for good measure! Jean ... Read more >
