Barbados approach (BW902) 3 of 3

arriving at BGI Bridgetown Barbados on 09. note the nice blue waters...
Barbados had heavy cloud on the West side of the island both times I was there.
it would be nice if Caribbean Airlines could paint a hummingbird on the inside of their winglets too...
fortunately I was transitting so I did not have to queue much at immigration at BGI.
my flights I just had were all on time or early which was a relief,
but I couldn't check my case all the way through, so had to recheck in transit,
of course my transit point was Barbados, tough life huh :o)
on departure I was told my bag would be checked all the way through, but I got to BGI (Barbados) and went to check in for the onward flight, and they said it wasn't (!) so I had to go back through customs to arrivals and reclaim and take the bag all the way back to departures for the BGI-POS portion, fortunately they were pretty cool about letting me "backtrack" through customs, try doing that in Houston!! no way!! :o)

on the return flight from BGI I sat next to a nice couple who lived on the coast in my own country - sadly I failed to get the address of their beach house - doh!! :o)
our return flight coincided as well so I sat next to them on the return flight.

Zenaida doves on balcony rail, Accra Beach Hotel, Barbados

The Zenaida dove (Zenaida aurita) was once close to extinction in Barbados in the 1870s, but its numbers have increased enormously since it has adapted successfully to human settlement. Zenaida doves are now so tame that they fly into restaurants and houses, and forage for scraps close to humans.
