Work and Play in Georgetown


the view from our balcony

We've now had two weekends in Georgetown, and have probably exhausted its entertainment options. Today's choice, the Princess Hotel (formerly Buddy's International)by the main cricket stadium, had a good size swimming-pool, but also ghetto-blasters. On Saturday we had a fruitless search for a heavy frying-pan, along the main shopping street, and found the 'foreigners' supermarket, and a wilting but fresh cauliflower. So we are managing an approximation of home cooking and early evening walks along the seawall (though today at high-tide the sea was sloshing over). For the archivists among you, the Iwokrama archive is fairly rudimentary and has so far been treated as a library system, so some challenges there too..
