never know they had one,maybe you can tell me more about this rail way

The railways was done away with a long time ago according to the web site. All I know is that we drove on a Linden-Rockstone road to the Essequibo river.

Kari...thanks for posting the link.

The wooden buses brought back lots of memories.

I had forgotten about Watooka creek. Used to fish there or cross the river to fish close to the rocks in the river at low tide.

The Christ Church building next to the Commercial school and a half block from my house in Waterloo St looks good in that photo.

The Hosay celebration (more in Trinidad than Guyana) was a theme of last year's Kitchrie produced by the Rajkumari Cultural Center in New York. This is a Shiite occasion.
