ย Good morning friends!ย 

Breakfast and braides…

After the consistently delicious, fresh and tasty breakfast we headed off to the salon. It was the same lady from last year, so she knew exactly how we liked our hair and we had a good catch up too! ๐Ÿ˜€ ย ย

Our new friends George and Cynthia…

Me Cynthia Sarah and George

If you remember the 1st day of our cruise in Aruba, we met George and Cynthia at the evening meal when weโ€™d shared a table. We had no idea that they were also staying at Southern Palms for a week too. They had stay here 20 years ago and wondered if it had changed and to get a photo at the same spot theyโ€™d had a photo back then. George and Cynthia were going to Saint Vincent to visit family for a few days and weโ€™d meet back up with them for the last couple of days.ย 

But before they left (as they are so loving and kind)for Saint Vincent they knew it was our birthdays and as a complete surprise present they bought us a top each with Barbados written on them. Yes mine is the stupendous blue Carribbean shirt iโ€™m wearing! ๐Ÿ˜€ ย ย

ย Right now we donโ€™t have to fight against the wind all holidayโ€ฆLetโ€™s see what weโ€™ll be doing on this cool excursion.ย 

Harrisonโ€™s Cave…

Go deeper underground with a visit to Harrisonโ€™s Cave. All limestone stalactites, caverns and grottoes, itโ€™s like taking a trip to the moon. Add rock pools, streams and some red and orange mood-lighting, and it takes on a volcano-like edge. Itโ€™s easy to see why the locals call it one of the seven wonders of the island. Boarding a little electric tram, youโ€™ll take a mile-long tour through the chambers, passing pillars formed by stalagmites and stalactites that have met in the middle. At the bottom, youโ€™ll see the star of the show โ€“ a mighty waterfall below the ground.

The hard hat…

First off, take a comedy picture once youโ€™ve put on your hard hatโ€ฆCheck! ๐Ÿคฃ ย ย

ย Weโ€™d just listened to about 15 minutes of history inside a mini cinema type place before boarding this cool little tram, then it was into the darkness to find some light. ๐Ÿ˜€ ย

ย Wow what a ride! We had a fantastic trip and were very thankful that weโ€™d not had to walk as it wouldโ€™ve been impossible. But sitting back and relaxing in the tram was fantastic and the guide was knowledgable and we learned lots! ๐Ÿ˜€ ย
