Only one month late, here's how we spent Christmas in Barbados.
Dad found some lights to put up on the window and bush in front of their apartment. Kind of festive! There were actually quite a few houses decorated like the one at the top of this post.
On Christmas Eve we had a great dinner at Blakey's, right on the beach. The food was great, the rum punch was tasty and there was even live entertainment at one point.
Christmas morning we had breakfast at my parent's. Baked french toast, bacon and sausage, and champagne and orange juice. Although it was really too hot to enjoy that much food.
Next stop, Rockley Beach. Nothing says Christmas like turquoise waters, right?
It was the busiest we saw the beach the whole time!
A quick shower, and we were off to see Grandma. This is the house where she still lives, the same house my dad and his three sisters grew up in.
I think this shot was taken just before Grandma asked Rob when he would be settling down... :)
Then it was off to Angela's for a buffet/pot luck dinner with all the aunts and some cousins.
My aunties Angela and Elaine
We had a great time eating, then playing cards and dominoes. Finally it was time for the family shot, and all the kids were singing Christmas carols between shots. It was truly a Christmas to remember, and the whole trip was worth it just for that one day.
