tucson.com There are two sides to the island, one on the Atlantic where waves are more powerful and beaches are less appealing. But on the western/Caribbean side, one finds aquamarine water and white sandy beaches. The most famous hotel there is Sandy Lane which has been the jewel on the island, attracting royalty and famous people for many years (we saw a well-known quarterback there). So what does one do when on the island?
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
