Stumbling upon paradise...Barbados: "When you close your eyes, imagining a beach with white sands, a crystal ocean and infinite horizon the vision between your bare feet…you’re picturing Barbados, you just don’t know it yet. This easternmost Caribbean island is considered part of the Lesser Antilles, a four hour flight from Miami. If you’re concerned about rain, no worries, the wet season falls between July and November, though Barbadian showers are just as majestic as its sunshine. Being from Southwest Louisiana, the word ‘Hurricane’ isn’t just said in passing. But, again, no worries."
I came face to face today with a vicious Akita,me and my little girl, luckily I had her in my arms while we were about to walk through the West Terrace district.We came around a corner and there was this huge Akita.It was actually taller than my little girl.She would have been looking it straight in the face. Now I am naturally afraid of dogs even the smallest of Chihuahuas.I avoided eye contact with the dog although peripherally I could see that he stopped and looked up at me.I continued walking calmly as though there was no threat about. Why do I say he was vicious? That is what I am hearing from people living in the area.Maybe he was just out of his territorial zone but I hope his owners keep in fenced in a lot better.That is something that I wouldn't want to happen again. Just a few months ago a child was mauled by an Akita.There was a time when the main dogs you used to encounter was the 'lowly' salmon tot retriever;A unique Barbados mongrel.Such is not the case now.To
