New Year's On The Road!

Who says that while traveling for work "On the Road" you can not enjoy traditional Holidays?!  Christmas in Trinidad was a success so I would not expect New Years to be any different.  All crew members met in the lobby for some much needed R&R involoving a little ethanol - very appropriate don't you think!? 

The crew:  Afshin (chief), Matt, Me, Idoko and Ken

The beer was enjoyed by all in the hotel lobby which overlooked the night skyline of the Gulf of Paria.  The ships lights made it appear like Christmas was occuring in the ocean - very pretty.  The beverage of choice was the local Caribbean brew - Carib.  Not too bad - although to me every beer (cheap or expense) tastes the same.

                                       

The shot to the lef to the left of the beer is a Margarita shot provided by the bartender at no charge.  Very delicious - couldn't taste the alcohol at all which can be dangerous.  Luckily I only partook in one :-)  After relaxing at the hotel bar for a couple hours, we lite off a fountain firecracker in the parking lot.  It lasted all of about 30 seconds - if that - but still a nice way to say Happy New Year in Trinidad. 

I miss everyone back home and wish you a WONDERFUL new year!!!!!
