Last week my parents came to visit me. It was very nice to see them again as it was the first time in over 8 months. Dad didn't believe it was me when we met because of my bleached hair and 'castaway' beard. Mum could finally relax and I could finally go to a restaurant again. I was very pleased to be on easy street again. We ate out (spending a week's budget on a meal), hired a car, and went on two boat trips. The boat trips were my highlight of the week. I'd never done ...

Tobago celebrates Easter by holding their famous (to them) goat races. When we got there i was worried to hear that the goats had jockeys. Fortunately for the goats though, the comical image of a full grown man on a goat was left to my imagination as the jockeys had to run alongside their goat to steer them and spur them on. It was all very fun after a few beers and the comentators ...

A double is two pieces of fried dough filled with a concoction of curry and spices and pigeon peas, covered in green and hot sauces...and doubles are fantastic. A double double (two doubles) costs a little more than $1.00 and is a very filling breakfast!

There is a reason they call it the rain forest! Unfortunately it has been raining pretty much non stop since we arrived. We did finally get our luggage which in and of itself was miracle. We have toured the leeward side of the isalnd and the beaches at Castara and Englishmen's Bay really are ...

... out on the Atlantic side at Fort George, our tour ended on Plymouth hilltop, where the original and oldest fort in Tobago still stands today, Jokubas Pilsetis (Fort James), along with a memorial designed by a Latvian and dedicated in 1978 to the memory of the Latvian Tobago settlers.

... all of them! It took me quite a few days to overcome this stereo-typed brain-washing, fortunately I did, and discovered how friendly and relaxed these people actually are (especially the one´s with red eyes!) even if I couldn`t understand a thing they said as I found the Caribbean acent to be even heavier Tobago.
