Barbados welcomed a prestigious visitor yesterday – the FIFA World Cup Trophy.
As part of a world tour leading up to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the trophy arrived with little fuss and fanfare.
Cadijah Mars, a 17-year old student of the Lodge School, had the privilege of escorting the trophy on its flight from St Lucia, where the cup was previously on show.
