No rugby in St Lucia

I had high hopes of catching the Six Nations rugby this weekend either at a local sports bar of on the TV in my accommodation which runs on an Amazon Firestick but no, I signed up to BBC Sport and iPlayer but their programmes are not available here. I saw that the French only turned up for the first half of their game against Wales that should give the Welsh boys some momentum beating The French on their home ground.

Yesterday was enjoyable doing a little bartering with the street vegetable sellers and generally meeting the locals, I also went up another hill to view the Toraille Waterfall $3 entry to view a very unspectacular waterfall which is hyped into a refreshing plunge for the tourists however, the
locals tell me the the village upslope from the waterfall use the stream for all their grey water so I did not join in the experience.

Today is a rest day and is the first day with no rain, so far, but to be honest the showers are usually very brief and it is no problem to stand under a banan plant or something similar to avoid the heavier downpours. I have taken a photograph of a beautiful rainbow, I hope it comes out well when I download it.
