  • Barbados 2021

    30 listopada 2021, Barbados ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

    ..successfully transited..via Bridgetown..to Saint James..West Coast..Bridgetown was pretty much empty..a Public Holiday..following Barbados becoming a Republic at midnight last night..HRH Prince Charles flew in for the ceremony..and has probably left again already..Barbados no longer has Queen Elizabeth II as their Monarch..they’d better not come running to us if it doesn’t all work out then😚 Czytaj więcej

  • Paynes Bay

    1 grudnia 2021, Barbados ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    ..if its Wednesday..it must be a beach day.⛱...nothing seems to have changed..on Day 2 of Republic status..the sun is out..the water is blue..and the beers are in the fridge..and the Virgin and BA flights will no doubt be arriving in the next 2 hours..my chosen catamaran provider has bought the craft into the bay for me to review..prior to my trip next week..its the yellow one 😚 Czytaj więcej

  • …The Story of China..the current read…

    2 grudnia 2021, Barbados ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    ….with 4000 years of history and tradition to read.. starting around 1900BC..I find myself up to 18th c..with the British having arrived..and the Opium wars started..some similarities to Barbados..but not with populations..when the British arrived here..it was uninhabited…China had about 200 million..These long lazy days are perfect for weighty tomes..like The Story of China..and it looks time for coffee and pastries😚⛱ Czytaj więcej

  • Bathsheba..Saint Joseph..East Coast 🇧🇧

    3 grudnia 2021, Barbados ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

    ….how different the East Coast of Barbados is…the journey across was through sugar plantations..bred from our Colonialism..and the slave trade..a marked contrast .from the West..so much more lush vegetation and palms..and far less money invested..but..fantastic surf..back on West Coast tonight..to view Jupiter..Saturn..and Venus..after a mediocre sunset..spoilt by cloud on the horizon..never mind..a cracking sunset last night..likely wont be bettered..

    Another rest day ..gearing up for the catamaran 5 star lunch trip…nearly beer time..midday approaches..

    ..where I came with my kids..and the ex…. 15 years ago..aged 15 and 12..Julie was somewhat older🤣..one of those edgy places..which I gravitate to..where you get offered drugs almost as you get off the bus..and dont advertise youre wearing a Rolex..obviously😳..no fish in the market when I arrived..but a fab dinner..marlin..fries..salad..pasta..for BB$ 25…£10..amazing value😍 Czytaj więcej
