Reports from Eleuthera indicate that the wind has been fierce the last
several days; so fierce in fact, that the Glass Window Bridge was
impassible yesterday. The wind seems to be laying down a little
today.
As for t'ings to do... The Millennium, just south of Gregory Town, is open for business on Friday and Saturday nights - I understand some folks from Briland have taken it over for the time being. This nightclub is generally packed when it is open - check it out. Bottom Harbour at Whale Point is still not having their Sunday live music, as the dock received lots of damage during the last 2 hurricanes. Elvina's in Gregory Town has really been packed lately on Tuesdays and Fridays - the karaoke machine is broken, however, she is trying to get another one, and the jam sessions should be resuming at the beginning of December. |

| Sat 11/6/2004 | Here are some pictures of the Guy Fawkes celebration preparations in Tarpum Bay. A huge bon fire is prepared along the sea front. Alvin Johnson is the man in charge of this celebration. Mr Butleris shown in the pictures teaching the local children about the history of the holiday. There will be a junkanoo rushout and first prize for the best Guy is $50. Judging is tonight at 8pm. The best Guy gets the honor of being "slapped around" by the crowd, and then burned first. | |||||||||
| Tue 11/2/2004 | Here are some pictures of the rage near Hidden Beach, Rainbow Bay last week. Also, this Friday is Guy Fawkes Day. Tarpum Bay will have a Guy Fawkes celebration during the evening hours. This festival includes the burning of effigies of the infamous Guy Fawkes, who was executed along with others in the conspiracy to blow up the House of Parliament, England in 1605. I will have pictures of the different Guys and the bon fires this weekend. | |||||||||
