The Island of
Trinidad and Tobago, known for its great food, great Soca and its over the top
Carnivals, can be found along the cost of Venezuela. Like Jamaica, T&T is also known for its beaches and Athletes. When there, one can't help but kick up ones feet and watch the sun set while listening to some
Machel Montano,
Destra,
Alison Hind or
Kes the Band and indulging in some Doubles or Roti.

If you've never been to a carnival before I suggest you try to catch one. In the US they have many different versions of carnival from state to state. For example, DC Carnival on Georgia Ave (now in Baltimore) and Miami Carnival. Both events, like in T&Ts, last for about 2 weeks. That's 2 weeks jam packed with parties leading to a road march. The best events to go to are the live concerts, the
J'ouvertt (paint) party, and of course the road march.
Hope to see you there next year ; )
