Welcome

Hi, my name is Victoria Grace Avara (Vickie for short) and welcome to my blog. This blog was written while I was stationed in Barbados for 4 years from 2008-2012. I would just write things down whenever I had the time. I would write about my experiences with living in a new country and a different culture. Please forgive my grammatical errors, but enjoy these posts that I wrote during this time. My husband and I dearly love the Island of Barbados and we hope to someday retire to this little island that we called home for 4 short and wonderful years of our life. I hope that you enjoy reading this blog.

Sincerely, Vickie Avara

Just another Monday



There is some type of tropical depression that is hovering over Barbados right now.  We had rain ALL last week and this weekend - and it is still raining today!  Actually, Gary called this morning, after he had arrived at work - stating that the schools are closed today because of this rain.  That might sound unusual to someone who lives in the United States, but it makes perfect sense to me.  This island has a big serious problem right now with drainage systems.  So, there are lots of places where people's cars get stalled out.
