Diwali

Diwali is a Hindu holiday, and is celebrated with food and decorating your house and yards with dias. Dias are oil-filled lanterns, and they give off a beautiful light. I went to an outside festival to celebrate Diwali with a friend. There was tons of shopping and great food everywhere!

The Eastern Tip

I drove out to Toco, the eastern-most part of the island a few weeks ago with some friends. It took about 2 1/2 hours one way, and the roads were somewhat perilous, but not as much as other places on the island. There are many resorts in this part of Trinidad.
