Carnival Post

Okay, so St. Lucia Carnival 2011 is long gone. But as I start planning my 2012 adventure in Trinidad, looking through this years pics made me long for those brief 2 days of pure enjoyment. Here are some pics that I loved, more can be seen on my flicker.

Are you playing Trini Mass in 2012?

Visiting Our Planet

Today we took the kids to visit Our Planet, an interactive visitor center at La Place Carenage. It is geared to towards raising awareness about climate change and preserving the environment. A very informative and unique experience. The kids loved the interactive games.

School starts tomorrow and we wanted to get some fun in before Monday. When we got home we painted a bit and then went to the Marina for cool drinks.

How did you end Summer Vacation?

Home made Fishing?!

One of the new things we learnt to do this summer was fish using homemade rods. Just a stick from the yard and fishing line expertly tied to one end. Add a hook and bait and we’re fishing! We decided to go to the pond (swampy, not so fresh) where the fishing is easy, so that everyone could get a little action. The girls loved it, even the ones who didn’t really want to in the beginning.  Best off all everyone caught something (not just fish in there you know!) even though they did not want to touch it!

Did you do anything new this summer?
