| The birds seen in this picture are the Scarlet Ibis.
This is the National bird of Trinidad. This photo was taken at the
Wildfowl Trust in Pointe-a-Pierre Trinidad.
|
| This is my very good friend Ferenc and I holding up a
dry piece of the Pitch Lake when we went to see this natural wonder. The
Pitch lake is in the Southern part of the island in La Brea.
|
| This is another picture from the Pitch Lake and here you
can see that it is not solid in all areas. The man in the photo was our
tour guide.
|
| This is the wonderful view as we approached Maracas Bay.
It's my favorite beach in Trinidad because it has huge waves. We spent a
lot of time here and Fraser got his first dip in sea water here.
|
| This picutre was one of the favorites from our eight
rolls of film that we used. It is a picture, but we made it look like a
post card by adding the text to it. This is in our sister isle Tobago at
Fort George. It's a historic site that was the fort for the different
countries that owned us in the past. The name came from the British as
they were the last to use it. We are now an independent twin island
Republic.
|
| This is me on a cannon at the same fort, with the ocean
in the background. You get quite a view when you're up here and it also
has a light house.
|
| This is Store Bay in Tobago. It's just minutes away
from the local airport and the water is lovely. Ferenc and I took a
tour of the Coral Reef on the glass-bottom boat you see with the orange
and blue.
|
| Here I am at the Nylon Pool during the Coral Reef
tour. This is another natural wonder that we have. The water is totally
clear and it reaches to about shoulder level for me (5ft 8in). We saw
some amazing fish when we snorkelled in the reef.
