The day after we went satisfied back to Antigua. The rest of the time we enjoyed Antigua, did some sightseeing and flew with the drone.
We found another very special place close by. A little village called “Hobbitenango”. And yes it’s because of the Hobbits out of JRR Tolkien’s books. A couple of friends decided to build up this organic and nature balanced village in the style of the shire, the country of the Hobbits.
