Afternoon Fun in a Golf
Cart
After our wonderful lunch and short
but heavy rain shower, it was time to carry on exploring the island of
Providencia in our trusty little golf cart with Eric and Dee. The one thing that
did impress us (other than the views) was the lack of
rubbish. Lots of roadside and recycling bins all in use.
A Berger
House, a viewing platform
complete with resident tree and a sign letting us know about the Black Crabs
In all the lush, green, fertile and
volcanic landscape we saw today, there were no formal
areas for growing vegetables and fruits, just the odd plantain, breadfruit and
coconut trees. There were one or two areas planted for sugar cane but overall we
were very surprised in comparison to other islands. Churches were always smart and of course the carefully owned were real treats.
Near Freshwater Bay we saw this cute restaurant with a unique use for its empty wine
bottles set in its paths
Loved Our Lady of
Mt Carmel but especially her
neighbours.
Passing this pile of ‘One Careful Owner’ bikes, I asked Bear to stop, back up
and asked for compliance. I got it - it just had to be. I saw the picture
forming.
Straight into the finals for this years ‘OCO’ I
feel
Just a little
way on a One Carefully Owned play park, very
sad........
..........but
later a very smart play park. We bumped into the
handsome Joel, dressed in more than when he had been
our snorkeling guide
Tethered trees and happy
benches........
Ready for Christmas and a wonderful roundabout.
..........but
nothing more joyful than the markers indicating beach and
bay turnings. On the corner of South East Beach was the best bus stop of all, Dee gracefully modeled for us.
My deepest joy
was meeting Ambrosia
It was
inevitable, just had to
happen...........
Calling to
our girls in the natural harbour
ALL IN ALL JUST THE LOVELIEST
PEOPLE LIVE IN THIS QUAINT, UNSPOILED BEAUTY
