Sam Lords Castle Barbados. I was married in Barbados on 25th Feb 2000 at Sam Lords Castle; this was my second attempt at marriage and also my husband to be. So we decided to go away somewhere warm and inviting and do the wedding bit just for us instead of the worry of inviting hundreds of guests and all the hassle that goes with it. When we set out on this task we were unsure as to where we wanted to go at first but decided on the Caribbean after ...

Disadvantages: Roads by the beach can be very fast

There was a lovely little place called o cristals just over the road, by a lovely beach. There is not alot of beach by holetown, but you dont have to go very far at all really to find one. So isnt really a problem. There was alot of beach by fitts village and you could walk down and up it to find where you wanted to swim as barbados never allows anyone to privitise the beach. There is some amazeing beautiful things to see and we also found ourselves ...
...We rented jet skis from people off the beach, the 4 stroke engines go like hell. The 2 strokes go fast even with two people on.

...experience! These are the 'reggae (mini) buses'! Otherwise known as ZR's (license plate letters!) the buses are WHITE some with a maroon stripe down the side. It transpired we were on Route 11. There were loads of them about … the service was more frequent, more regular, and ran later at night. Any trip on a reggae bus is nothing if not memorable. Our driver was an extremely relaxed fellow, smoking a thin cigarette throughout, sporting beard, dreadlocks, ...
...all locals, generated a great atmosphere as we went along ,chatting away, hopping on and off the bus. Quite a contrast to the sullen faces that so often populate our own buses nowadays. Everyone seemed to know someone else…loud friendly greetings and good humour everywhere. The driver used his distinctive musical horn frequently to attract prospective customers as he approached stops, official and unofficial. Our speed could be described as leisurely…certainly ...
