Barbados celebrates Independence every year on November 30th.
We have always had close ties to the UK and sometimes over here, Barbados is referred to as “Little England”. We received our full independence from being a British colony in 1966 and we were first inhabited by the British in 1627.
Now the Independence flags are down along with the blue and yellow trimmings and the focus is on Xmas.
Instead of snow, some Barbados gardens have beautiful red and yellow poinsettia, and “snow on the mountain” plants start to bloom along with the cassia shrub know as the “candle” plant.
I came across this video and really liked it as it shows dogs getting into the spirit of Xmas as well. Also an excellent training job.
And the dogs share in the duties and work together so well. 🙂
It’s early December but as time flies so quickly, Xmas Day will soon be here.
