Where is Trinidad

"Where is that?" Is usually the first question people ask when we tell them we are moving to the country Trinidad and Tobago. Trinidad is the southern most Island in the Carribean. Its just off the coast of Venezuela, about 10 degrees north of the equator. It's sister island, Tobago is about 20 miles north east of Trinidad. Luckily for us, Trinidad is south of the Hurricane zone.

Rich and I will be leaving Salt Lake on Dec. 26, 2007. Rich will be returning to Utah in early January to finish his teaching obligations and then joining me in Trinidad.
