The caribbean conjures images of discovered treasure. It's St. Lucian Nobel Laureate Sir Arthur Lewis transforming economic thought. It's Jacques Cousteau leading divers to the Belizean live coral reef of unworldly size and beauty. It's Australia's victory at the 2007 Cricket World Cup on manicured greens from Guyana to Grenada, intensified by the adrenalin rush of a West Indies v. England near tie at Kensington Oval. It's St. Patrick's week in Montserrat, or steel pans and festive pageantry of Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago. It's Jamaican reggae legend Bob Marley. It's hidden sandy coves in the Bahamas and majestic sunsets in Turks & Caicos, remote from slush and smog, where the only umbrella in mind is Barbadian Rihanna's 2008 Grammy hit.
