Sunday morning adventure

This morning we woke up, looked at each other, and decided that if we were going to avoid another day of sister fights, we'd have to change everyone's scenery for a bit. So, we pulled out the Guyana guide book and decided on a little day trip: we went about an hour outside of town to the Guyana Heritage Museum. You may think it sounds odd that, after three years here, we had never done this. Keep in mind this is Guyana, so it's not really what you're thinking. It's a quirky guy's collection of really amazing old artifacts (some even pre-Columbian!) that he basically just keeps on shelves in his house. The tour started on his roof-top deck. Quite a view!

'Twas breezy.

The girls did not really appreciate the artifact tour portion of the day...

...but Patrick and I really did. This man has some really amazing stuff! These are 18th century Dutch bottles.

We were served a tasty lunch after our tour. The girls entertained themselves with this little plastic dog while Patrick and I shopped in the "gift shop" (a closet jam packed full of stuff, hundreds of years old, that they didn't want anymore). What a treasure!
