After this busy day the delegation returned to Turks and Caicos at 5h00 p.m.

"You have the symbol of freedom, you are a great people," declared Ralph L. Higgs confessing be amazed by the richness and beauty of the National Historical Park composed of the Citadelle Henry, of Sans Souci Palace and Sites of Ramiers.
