Christmas is my my favourite time of the year it is true and I like it in Barbados, even though it is not like it used to be.Bridgetown is beginning to swell with people. I am tempted to say like a mindless mass of people.....I probably will be doing my shopping on christmas eve...just before the stores close....It still amazes me how one culture can be so much influenced by another...the proliferation of white christmas songs.....prompted my little girl to ask me if it ever snowed or ever will snow in Barbados...as i told her...i don't like a white christmas and thats because of the cold.If snow was white fluffy and warm then yes...maybe.
Global Holidays : "Once the home of huge colonial plantations, Barbados is now a destination for many sun hungry Brits wanting to get away from it all during the colder months. Far from abandoning its British-influenced past, the island state's 270,000 or so inhabitants have adopted elements of British culture into the West Indian way of life. Its national sport is cricket, while the island is still predominantly Protestant."
