Arrived in Port of Spain

It was a long day or travel. I left Victoria on the 7am flight to Toronto and finally landed in Port of Spain around 11pm. This is a very civilized place! The Airport was clean and well organized. When I tried to change $40 US at the airport, there were two cambios. I went to the one with no lie-up. The guy said "I can only give you 5.60, you know"  I haven't been used to that sort of honesty even in Canada - I changed the money there.
Olaf, the local FCM rep met me and took me on the scenic route to my hotel. This is a very attractive City at night with the hills behind the town and the ships at anchor in the Bay of Paria.
The hotel is great - the internet works and the air conditioning work which were my two priorities. I think I am going to like it here.
