Hi 411
If you think Carabana in Canada is off the hook, then you wouldn't know what to do with yourself if you went to Carnival in the beautiful island of Trinidad (okay so I'm a little bias :-) The event takes place in February usually in the second or third week.

Our hotel (Holiday Inn Express) is about 20 minutes from downtown, near the airport, but I reserved my room months ago at a rate of $89 bucks a night (before the prices started jumping up). Everything downtown is either booked full or at least $200 a night. RedVelvet clued me in on the advantages to taking the bus, so we'll just do that to save even more dough.
Yep, the parade is that Saturday starting at 10:00 a.m. There is a cruise on Friday that begins at 7:00 p.m. Tickets ($50) for that just went on sale last week, and as of yesterday, they still have over 600 left. I am definitely trying to check that out. On Sunday and Monday there will be a big Caribbean arts and crafts festival. I'm getting more and more excited each day!
See you there!
