P day

The Trincity Mall is fairly old. They have added a whole new section to it. It is typical mall with a large grocery store attached where we like to do our weekly or monthly shopping.

Trinidad has their own Coke plant, which is along the east west main road that goes across most of Trinidad. Notice the cool headge with the words carved in them.

We had lunch at a new Irish Pub that opened on the second floor on the Trincity Mall. The food was pretty good. We had fish and chips. Two more nice restaurants are located next to the Pub.


The food court has many of the same fast food places as our food court at the Valpark plaza. When we came out of the movie we were shocked at all the people. It was packed with teenagers and young adults. There must have been something special going on because we saw lots of people, including families, really dressed up. The movie complex has several theaters, which was probably some of the draw. We attended at 1:10 show. Talk about ads! and previews! It was 45 minutes worth.

You may notice that there are a few bees in our back wheel well. This was taken when we got home, so over half of them are gone by this time. We went to the mall about 10 and left at 3:30. While we were shopping, eating and going to the movie a swarm of honey bees decided this was a good place for a new home. This must be the time of year that they swarm because the lot security guy said it isn't usual for it to happen in this parking lot.


The tower is a monitoring spot for the police. It is at the end of the large parking lot. This mall seems to have adequate parking. It was pretty full when we left after seeing "Kung Foo Panda." It was a great movie. It sure reinforces the true concept that you can achieve your goals if you are willing to put in the preparation time. Sometimes we do all the background work as he had done, but don't take that final effort to make it. I would love to see it again.


The flag of Trinidad and Tobago is seen flying on our way to the Trincity Mall. It is the only flag we have noticed in our travels.
