Bridgetown in Pictures

Bob has taken some very nice pictures of his walk into town.  Being Sunday, all stores were closed and there were not many people out so it was a great time to take pictures without having to dodge people.

After you leave the port area, this is the walk into the town.  It runs along the Carlisle Bay.  Nice path lined with trees.

Just another view of the edge of the water.

This is the Careenage.  An area where very nice boats are docked.

Another view of this area.

More of the same area.

This is the Parliament Building.  Flying the flag of Barbados.  It dates back to 1639.  It houses the Barbados Nationa Heroes Gallery and the Barbados Museum of Parliament.

This is the entrance of the Chamberlain Bridge.

Up close of the arch at the end of the bridge.

This is St. Michael's Church.

And a statue of Lord Nelson.

This is St. Mary's Church.  Both St. Michael's and St. Mary's are Anglican Churches.

The walk on the way back to the port.

This is the security at the entrance to the port.  There was one other ship here with us.  It is probably the first time we have been here when there have not been lots of other cruise ships in port.
