We met the Coleman's at the Tobago airport on Thursday, Dec 11 and headed out for bake and shark at Store Bay. Alas, they were out of shark. Next stop, Bonkers for lunch. We went to the Botanical Garden's to see the Christmas lights. It was a gorgeous evening with a big, beautiful full moon.
Snorkeling at Arnos Vale wasn't great because the waves were big and stirred the sand so much that the water was sandy and the bottom wasn't visible. It had been awesome the day before according to someone else who was disappointed in the rough water as well. Sister Coleman asked permission to take a dip in the pool before we left. We sipped fruit drinks by the pool while she indulged in a quick swim. We enjoyed the quiet, peaceful surrounding of the grounds and took lots of pictures of the flowers and trees.We did go back to the Kiosks for bake and shark the next day, but it wasn't as good as Richard's at Maracus Bay. It is all in the bake; it needs to be light and airy. It was fun to walk around the Store Bay shops and walk by the swim beach and watch the people.
Our big night out for dinner was spent at Me Shell's since no one else starts serving dinner until 7 or 7:30 pm. We enjoyed the meal and the conversation.
We met the elders in Scarborough at Caio's famous Italian pizza place for lunch after the baptism. It has thin crust and isn't greasy like much of the pizza we usually consume. It was very good! Ham and pinneapple, of course.
The Coleman's attended church with us and were the speakers in sacrament meeting. They shared their wonderful conversion story that touches my heart each time I hear it. It is a perfect example of fellowshipping someone into the gospel.
We fed them lunch and whisked them off to the airport to return to Trinidad. They leave for home (Queen Creek, AZ) on Tuesday. They are a great couple who were a wonderful support to us as we learned the ropes in the mission office.

Trinidad and Tobago accounts for diverse religions, and their religious structures prove this. You can visit the Christian Churches, Buddhist temples and Muslim mosques as you like. This is truly unique a very unique experience.
Hard not to miss, Port-of-Spain is the capital city of Trinidad and Tobago and where you will find the most modern places you are looking for. This is also where the country's main port is located. Here, you can do your shopping and seafood-eating here as well as bar hopping.
