Barbados!

your day with a cappuccino and freshly baked muffin under an umbrella on the
balcony of the "Bean 'N Bagel", a short stroll up from Meridian Inn.
An al fresco dinner? ... The choices are endless in "The Gap" ... from Asian to Mexican, Caribbean to Italian ... the choice is yours and the menus creative and intriguing.
Quench your thirst at one of the many pubs or take in a game at a sports bar.
