I managed to get work teaching English at a school in San
Fernando and Tunapuna. It’s a couple of classes teaching SAT exam essay writing
to US university hopefuls. I’m doing lots of traveling around Trinidad, in
cars, maxi taxis, catamaran ferries, and air-conditioned buses. It’s a busy
polluted stinky world – I'm missing white sandy beaches.
Port of Spain
I went on a trip to the Caroni Bird Sanctuary near Port of
Spain with Pim and Hanneke and Liontien. We motored slowly in a shallow
bottomed boat along rivers amongst the mangroves. We saw snakes, iguanas and
lots of scarlet ibises. It was good to
get into the other kind of jungle.

Even though the water is a bit
murky, its still nice get home by dinghy.
