Taking a tour cricket tour anywhere is an adventure. Taking a tour to the Caribbean is a dream; Then add the World Cup and it is a trip of a lifetime.

Dogs at the World Cup
The new stadium on the island is tremendous - great sights from the Pavilion
Unfortunately some of the cricket was a little predictable.
But we always had the Party Stand!!!
