Rent a car and tour Barbados with CoconutCars.com

I am still thinking about taking a trip elsewhere in the Caribbean just to see how things are on other islands in the area. I often wonder if Jamaica is much like other islands around us and I think my next trip out of here will try to answer some of those questions for me. I was offered an opportunity to make money in some business related to Barbados Island and so I did some research on the island and I have been considering a trip. Traveling to Barbados would not be so expensive and I can fly roundtrip from Montego Bay for just *** on AirJamaica. I can fly in for as long as I want to so long as I can prove I have the money to stay there. I did that here in Jamaica by showing them my business and personal credit cards. I don’t know how much I would need to get into Barbados but it should not be bad.

The Official Barbados website claims the best way to see the island is via car rental. I found a Barbados Car Rentals company at CocunutCars.com and they also offer a Barbados Drivers License at any car rental agency so I can legally drive there. I don;t know why but I certainly seem to prefer seeing a country by driving around it. I guess its the freedom to wander about a country and check out things as they develop that I enjoy. We have had so much fun here with our van that if I did spend some time in a new country I would have to do so with a car.

CoconutCars.com also offers Barbados Island tours and the look like the place to kick off any Barbados vacation. I’ll have to keep this in mind for if and when we travel there. Has anyone driven a car in Barbados? Is is similar to driving in Jamaica?

Anyone got a good reason to visit London England?

I have some friends in London England that have asked me to visit with them when I get the chance and since we are in the process of planning a new trip I have done some research using a London blog I found online. I have never traveled to any part of England or even Europe before so this would be a major change in travel for us. We are accustomed to traveling in warmer temperatures here in the Caribbean and I am sure that the famous London weather would be difficult for us to get used to. That may make it all the more fun or it may make for a horrible time. Who knows right?

I understand there is lots to do in London and getting there should not be so difficult for us. The London webzine I was reading has some great information on London including things to do and hotels to stay at. They have a great article on the current situation with london hotels overcharging for rooms. I think if I do go I’ll have my friends sort out some of this for me. If they want me to come and visit so badly they can either put us up or find a place in London for us to stay.

Any of you have any advice on a nice stay in London?
