The Friday Nite Cruise sponsored by Pepsi, has a fantastic array of Corvettes, Mustangs, Monte Carlos in pristine condition, gleaming with their proud owners in a parade all around Old Town. Live music adds to the exciting atmosphere on the main stage at 7.30 p.m.

In its 15th year, The Saturday Nite Cruise has live 50’s and 60’s style rock and roll, which begins at 7.00p.m. And 325 classic cars and Hot rods and antiques parade with pride.

There is free parking and Admission and with its 75 specialty shops, 18 thrilling rides including the Super shot, which slowly creeps its way up to 150 feet in the air and shoots you down in one drop.

The new spiral Go-Kart tracks are great fun. Then there is the old town sling shot, Merry-go–round, Frog Hopper and Dragon Wagon kiddie coaster, and not forgetting the Buffalo rodeo rides, accompanied by Country and Western music, it’s a great atmosphere as you stroll along Main Street, you just want to take it all in.

The typical American diner’s takes you back in time and the children love the wax museum, all this makes a really enjoyable time.

A final ride on the bumper cars and maybe win a cuddly toy or show off your strength to your loved one with a test your strength game.

Pizza Hut, Chillies, Olive Garden are just a few of our favourite restaurants within a couple of minutes from Old Town

Usually when we have just got off the plane, put our cases in the villa and popped into Walmart for the tea, milk bread and cornflakes, we head off to the pizza Hut followed by a stroll down Old Town, it’s a great way to stretch those legs after a long flight and soak in the American atmosphere.

We love it and all this a stones throw from our beautiful villa Papplewick on Windward Cay, just off the 192.

Hope to see you there,

Val Goymer
