Barbados

We sailed an ocean to Barbados.

Here’s a few pics of the journey. And evidence of the fish!

    Great pics. Looks like Brownes Beach at Carlisle Bay ?

    You may have been to Barbados before, but just in case if you can still bear the thought of more fish of the barbecued variety, head down to Oistins where there are loads of shacks that do a great Barbados style fish & chips with Banks beers. Ask the locals which night is best.

    Have fun.

    Jim.
