| Listed in the table below are the approximate
times of various events held at our villages and attractions. Docents
will dramatize daily rituals from the normal routines such as the Puerto
Rican villagers' cooking pastilles to the simply bizarre, for example,
the heading hunting enactments put on the Carib Indians who capture live
members of the audience to be cooked (Just kidding). The attractions
have various demonstrations, seminars, lectures, and re-enactments all
through the day and evening. May we suggest this one that visitors find
very informative and healthy, the sun protection talk and water rescue
presentation that are delivered every hour an half at Hurricane Bay. |
