Shirley Heights

We had heard from every single person that we talked about Antigua with that we should go to the Sunday night BBQ at Shirley Heights.  Apparently it is an Antiguan institution!  Shirley Heights itself is an old Fort on top of the hill with beautiful panoramic views of English and Falmouth Harbors.  It is a prime place to watch the sunset while the steel drum band sets the mood with some great music.  How do they get so many different sounds out of those drums?!?!  We got up there just before sunset to enjoy the views and after the sunset we tried the bbq which was pretty awesome.  We sat down at one of many picnic benches and enjoyed the warm night, the food and the music (along with a ton of other people!).  🙂
