Caribbean

Trinidad and Tobago
Two small islands that have made a big contribution to world culture. I lived there in the early 1970's, for four years. This link will take you to a page of nostalgic symbols, and then a few photos from a recent trip.

Guyana
It's really in the northeastern corner of South America, (bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, Venezuela, Brazil, and Surinam) but culturally, it is more closely related to the Caribbean.

I spent four days in Guyana in January, 2002, and fell in love with it! This is a link to a page of photos from that trip.
