Today is our last full day in Barbados! We were up and out early and we drove up towards Speightstown which is the 2nd largest town on the island. I had read that the town was how Barbados used to be and definitely had an olde worlde feel about it.
After visiting the local museum and having a look around the town we stopped off at the Fishermans Pub for lunch where they served up local food - we could have had local delicacies of pigs tails or cou cou (cornmeal & Okra dish) but we played it safe and had macaroni pie, flying fish and plantain which was very nice, with a lovely view over the sea.

It felt very hot and humid in Speightstown so we were glad to cool down in the car whilst we drove to St Nicholas Abbey, and old plantation house that is now a musuem and rum distillery.
It was very interesting to look around but the heat beat us and we decided to skip our last stop and head back to the hotel to cool down!
We have had a lovely holiday and have had a good mixture of things to do and relaxing.
