My Wednesday morning commute:

First stop- Maji belly rub!

"Team SLP" the opposition party's newest campaign slogan...

Rush-hour southbound into Castries

Two girls on their way to school. It's good to have a friend with an umbrella with all the sudden downpours around here!

Just as suddenly, the rain leaves and a rainbow appears! Since they were often called "green gold" in the heyday, it seems fitting that there are bananas at the end of the rainbow in St. Lucia ;)

This farmer has had to cut back their farm (chop down all the banana plants) because of Black Sigatoka, a fungus plague that is ravaging the extremely vulnerable industry.

The only alternative to the cut back is simply to abandoned the farm. I'm seeing more almost every week. This farm was being managed as recently as the end of Sept. but no more...
