Missed it
I have been to Guyana 4 times - I love to swim - we went to Jubalie, Splashmans and a Creek by Melissa's cabin. She was born in Georgetown and she never told me about Blue Lakes?? Incredible!!! I got to go again! Got to swim in those blue waters! I will take some food, a couple of Banks Beers and Melissa and have a blast!!
