week 4 and week 5

We came to a time, were it was election month. So, travelling to schools and colleges; we were hearing on the radio about the BLP(Barbados Labour Party and DLP (Democrat Labour Party)  groups. The reason that I remember this, because there were songs on the radio, they were singing about the their election parties which was a little bit strange, the fact someone did that back home would be unusual; you wouldn't get David Cameron promoting for the conservative party by making up tunes. Some of the tune were quite catchy to recall.  We are bombarded with the election consistently on TV advertisements and the Radio.

During the weekend we have gone to Holetown festival and saw the parade. It wasn't anything special, but I was amazed with horse riding account of horse riding to be synchronised well. We were all feeling peckish. If they weren't feeling hungry, I was definitely sensing my taste buds; I'm person who would like to try something new everyday. So, I gave it shot by trying their famous 'pigtail'. It tasted like pork rib, but it was satisfying. I did have doubts, if it was the real deal. Then we headed to 'Tiki Hut' to get our drinks. Two of us was drinking and the unlucky other two weren't. (I wasn't drinking). Well, I made the best of it. Going into the 'Tiki Hut' the bar tender help us get into the 'Priva' Club. The club was okay, the dance floor was corridor and lounge area was filled with nude pictures and comfortable seats.
Throughout the night we did lose someone, it took three of us about half an hour to find the person. We searched up and down the club, even went to the nearest beach near their, someone else told us that this person went to the petrol station. Still couldn't find this person, went to the car parked, wasn't there. Finally, we found the person by covering ground and we had assist from the bartenders. This individual was in the club after all. Apparently, the person decided to wonder off to they their own thing.

All the while this week, teaching the children the warm up 'bull dog', chasing the bib and few other more. I realised that I had to bring up new ideas every week. I couldn't use the same warm every week. Some of older students, I would have to adapt to their method of warm up. Stretching is important for the older one. But, still add the element of having fun for groups and ages.

Now moving on to week five, It was my turn to take the weekend and relax. Plain and simple, I don't remember much of the night. But, I'm reminded in the next few days. Let's leave it like that.
Election were over and DLP (Democrat Labour Party) won again, usual there is a Bank Holiday, but the same party won, so it isn't a big deal.
