Enter the Unknown.So we set down in Caracas, after the flights from hell on Caribbean Airways (note to the wise avoid at all costs - both planes delayed). This is my first time in South America, something that will piss my father off no end. Yes I got here first!Did you know you can't get Venezuelan B.s (currency) in the UK? So it was straight to the atm - "not in service" - great! So through the gates and immediately a rush of people wanted us to eithe...

So the bus… what can I say about the bus. Rodovias de Venezuela was the company that owned it and it was the most uncomfortable ride of my life. Our tour company, had forgotten to mention that these busses are kept at sub freezing temperatures throughout the journeys, to keep people from sweating, therefore negating the concept of cleaning the bus. Up roll Megan and I in T-shirts and shorts, having left jumpers and jeans in Tobago, it was so cold. And by cold ...

Sound appealing - well everything apart from the last part anyhow. We leave for Venezuela tomorrow, so I wanted to update you on how gorgeous this Island is. We heard that an area called Pigeon Point was the most beautiful on the Island, so we got our ...

So I assumed it was just pissed up Toboggans.. Still slightly inebriated from the boat trip we got taken down to Buccoo Reef, where there were lots of craft stands, a steel pan band and a huge local BBQ. This was around 9pm, and it was pretty busy, with tourists and locals alike. Food down here was gorgeous, a...

So it was up early after our early night, and we decided to get our bearings and hire a car for the day to explore the Island. Great idea, I thought until I found out 2 facts - one Megan is the worst navigator in the world! I was very surprised I didn't end up in Mexico… and second the drivers in Tobago are crazy! Crazy is a slight understatement, they all are in the middle of the road most of the time, and occasionally do not actually move when you head toward...
