Today we went to Welchman Hall Gully which is a tropical forest inside a gully. We enjoyed walking through the gully looking at all the different plants, and we were again the only people there so it felt very tranquil. There was lots of bird noises and rustling in the trees and we caught sight of some monkeys playing on the path and near the trees.
Our next stop was Harrison Caves which is a crystallized limestone cavern with flowing
streams, deep pools of crystal clear water and unusual stalactites and stalagmites formations. On arrival, you watch a short film on how Barbados was created (which was quite interesting) and then jump on an electric tram where they drive you around the cave. It was quite interesting but they didn't warn you on how wet you were going to get... in places it wasn't the odd drip but more like it was raining in the cave!! I don't like getting wet so I wasn't amused!

We then drove over to Holetown, the 2nd largest town in Barbados, for some lunch and a look round the shops - they had a shopping mall there that had Cartier, Versace and Louis Vuitton but I couldn't persuade Peter to buy me anything there!
