The featured picture is the City Hall located in Georgetown. It has an almost Disneyesque quality to it, reminded me of the <b.MAGIC KINGDOM with the tall tower and almost castle like appearance.The country of Guyana was first visited on a cruise ship in early 1997. We went there during the dead of Winter in Canada, flying to Montreal, then taking a VIA RAIL excursion back through Ottawa and Toronto, disembarking in Ottawa for a few days so that we could go on a tour of Ottawa, in the snow, on the Canal and all the usual neat things you do when the weather is as cold as it gets.

To shop at the Stabroke Market on Saturdays. It is an open market where any person can bring their items for sale. It can any item (home grown, one busshel even), fruits, vegetables, seafood, homeade snacks etc. They just find a spot beside the road and setup a stand and sell. You just have to be there to experience the FREEDOM...Yet you have to be careful of 'Pick pockets'. To visit this market with a native is an experience. Also the Atlantic Sea shore. So vast and yet refreshing...Picture this...a long strip of Coconut trees a hammock hung between two in the middle of the day, sun shining and it is 30 - 35 degrees celcius but you don't feel the heat cause you are under the shade of the coconut trees and a gentle breeze coming off the Atlantic Ocean in front of you ...I could get used to that lifestyle very easily...
