King George V Park, St Clair, Port of Spain

Directly across from our current apartment (we're hoping to move into something permanent in the near future) there is a park which is always a hive of activity. Most mornings before work there are usually games of soccer going on and people going for walks. After school and work hours, children use the space for serious sports training and adults play casual games of soccer and touch rugby until the sun goes down. On the weekends, junior cricket matches and coaching clinics are held all over the park. Occasionally, there's the slightly stranger event, such as some form of hybrid marching / calisthenics that went from dawn to dusk a few weekends ago.

Below are a few shots of the activity in the park, including the future West Indies players in the making and what looks like some form of Caribbean Glee Club.


An edge over the stumps but lucky for this lad they weren't playing with wicket keepers.

Nice foot work.

Impressive quick pick up from this little tacker.


Stumps.

The strange (to our eyes) marching event as seen from our apartment.
