Barbados busses

Hi,

Sorry for a late reply.
Starting from Bridgetown give you a lot of possebilities. You can take the
bus to Batsheba. It give you a lot of the inland scenes, and you will come
to some ot the nicest places on the east coast.
There is also a bus straight up to Harrisons Caves from Bridgetown. And from
there it is walking distance (at least in my opinion, but many may disagree
about that) to Flower Forest botanical garden.
Taking the bus around Barbados is an exellent way to get around.
I have been almost all around the island both by bicycle and by foot. And
there is a lot of things to see on your way.
I will be in Barbados from about december 2nd to december 27th.

Hi Rosalie,

Nice to hear from you.
Do you think about renting a driver to take you to those places both days?
That would be the only option I could think of. I have a good friend in
Barbados that work at Hilton and drive taxi on the side. At least he used to
do that, and did so last year. I could of course ask him if he would take
you those places.
I have been to Sunbury and it is very very nice. Yes, you should go there.
I will not be there for the 30th december, but will be there the 17th.
We have no plans on renting a car. We have a tight budget due to a big
repair on the car just now. But if those plans should be changed, and we
decide to rent a car, I would for sure love to be your driver to those
places.

I can ask our friend when we get to Barbados, and send you a mail.
What do you think about that?
