Trip out of Georgetown

Today two of us went out to visit a couple of volunteers who are about 6 miles out of Georgetown, they are going to be working at the Teacher Training College. The minibuses give a rather wild ride, weaving in and out of the traffic, blowing the horn and stopping suddenly to pick up anyone who looks like they may like a ride, but they're very cheap. The area was quite different from being in town, big wide verges and houses set in gardens. Some of the houses are very posh, but in other parts they are little more than shacks. We visited the market which was much quieter than in Georgetown so it was easier to look at all the interesting fruit and vegetables on sale. There is thunder around today, and it may rain. Last time some of the roads were flooded a few inches, they say that our area floods so we need to get ourselves some wellies.
