Beer drinking pigs

Friday we got up really early in the morning. Mr. Bannis picked us up and drove us to the Domino Club in the rain forest, and we met with our tour guides, Celeste and Bernito. Celeste started off by doing a presentation about the jumbies and how the old African spirits are still a part of the people and culture here on St. Croix. After that she wanted to show us something - something that turned out to be really weird...  
"You have to see the beer drinking pigs!"
There were these huge pigs in stalls eager to get non-alcoholic beer. So we bought beer cans and fed it to the pigs.
After that weird experience, we drove off to see Frederiksted. Celeste and Bernito gave us a guided tour around the Free-Gut neighborhoods and showed us some historical places.We saw the Catholic Church, the former Danish School, which now houses the government offices and the Liberty Hall. The last thing they wanted to show us was the fort, and they gave us a quick tour.
At this point we were very tired and hungry. Celeste knew a vegetarian place called Uca, which made some really good vegetarian food! We all had burgers and fries. 
We did not have any plans the rest of the day, so we used the time to relax and get ready to meet our host families the day after.
