I'm so excited to have now arrived in Trinidad, my dream of actually getting to the Caribbean has been realised.
My journey didn't exactly start too well, I spent the whole morning at the airport. They wouldn't let me through as I didn't have a return flight and they couldn't find any information on my onwards flight. I definitely had one, I had booked it a week ago and had all the confirmation details in an email, only thing was I had no chance to print it off anywhere. There was wifi all over the airport so I went online in my laptop, showed them my flight details, they searched the same flight but couldn't find any information on it. I was finally freed to go at about 13.30 and I had been there since 10.30am so a good few hours waiting around for them to let me through the customs.
I had no idea where I was going to stay, I asked around and went to the tourist information desk, the bloke working there searched around for the cheapest places for me, the cheapest he got was $40 US.
