The high cost to hang out:

We don’t mean to be spoilsports, but how are Barbadians able to attend the myriad high-profile entertainment shows that have proliferated the cultural landscape in the last three months and still make ends meet from day to day?

With an economy that is being buffeted by rising oil prices and the knock-on effect of slow economic growth in our major trading partners Britain and the United States, followed by not-too-favourable ratings by Moody’s Investment Services, is it unreasonable to expect Barbadians not to splurge?

Mullins Bay, Barbados

Barbados is stuck with the unfortunate problem of what to do when conservation efforts go wrong.  The construction of sea walls and other measure to prevent erosion have ironically led to increased erosion.  However, this is not the only threat to these beaches as rising sea levels are also a concern.  The eastern side of the island has experienced less detrimental construction, so beach goers might want to begin their visit there.
