PORT OF SPAIN

Well I made a big mistake today. I decided to visit Port of Spain in the afternoon and hit a huge traffic jam going in to PoS and rush hour at the bus station going home.

But Judy and I had a good time walking around admiring some of the old buildings and parks in the centre.






The police station which looks like a church had been bombed in some previous coup attempt but looks fine today.

The red house is not looking so good but the scaffolding suggests that restoration might be being considered.

However the church and fountain were both in fine fettle.

As we waited in a somewhat undisciplined bus station queue we heard that there had been a major fire in PoS which might have been the cause of the traffic jams.
