点评:Saba was settled by people from England, Scotland, and Ireland. It changed hands many times, eventually becoming Dutch. Most of the people are Anglican (Episcopal). I visited the Joly Trinity Church, built n 1878.
The Harry L. Johnson Museum is in an old sea captain's cottage. I wrote a separate review of this excellent museum.(
The Saban Anole lizard is endemic to the island. Only the males have spots. The little guy in my photo is about 8 cm./3 inches long, plus about 10 cm./4 inches of tail.
As I was walking to my next stop, I passed a lovely mural on the wall of the Saba Life Center (a senior center). One of the residents saw me looking at the mural and came over to tell me more about it. It shows the island and its flora and fauna. Its title is "Saba . . .After Dark" and was designed by Joan Bourque.
My destination was the Saba Heritage Center. The focus of the center is on archaeology. There was also an art exhibition on the walls titled "Faces and Places of Saba--the Exhibition". The portrait in my photo does not depict any specific individual, but shows "Saba Character". It was painted in 2018 by Angelita Peterson.
Windwardside is a nice place to explore while you are on Saba. They also have two grocery stores and several restaurants.
翻译:萨巴岛最初由来自英格兰、苏格兰和爱尔兰的人们定居。它几经易手,最终归荷兰所有。岛上居民大多信奉英国国教(圣公会)。我参观了建于1878年的乔利三一教堂。
哈里·L·约翰逊博物馆位于一座老船长的小屋里。我单独写了一篇关于这家优秀博物馆的评论。(
萨巴安乐蜥是萨巴岛特有的蜥蜴。只有雄性身上有斑点。我照片里的小家伙大约8厘米/3英寸长,加上尾巴大约10厘米/4英寸。
在前往下一站的路上,我经过萨巴生活中心(一个老年活动中心)墙上的一幅精美壁画。一位居民看到我在欣赏壁画,便过来给我讲解。壁画描绘了萨巴岛及其动植物。它的标题是“萨巴……夜幕降临”,由琼·布尔克设计。
我的目的地是萨巴遗产中心。该中心以考古为重点。墙上还举办了一个名为“萨巴的面孔与地点——展览”的艺术展。我照片里的肖像画并非描绘任何特定的人物,而是展现了“萨巴的特色”。这幅画是安吉丽塔·彼得森于2018年创作的。
温沃德赛德是个好地方。在萨巴岛游览期间,您可以四处逛逛。岛上还有两家杂货店和几家餐馆。
