In Trinidad, the prescription for stress is to “take 2 aspirin and go to the beach!” So when Trekker, the Traveling Tiger, told us he was very stressed trying to get over his jet lag, we had no choice on our Preparation Day, but to take him for a beautiful drive through a tropical forest to a white sandy beach with swaying palm trees and white capped waves. He loved it and after a short time, he began to relax and soon forgot all his problems.
Just as we were all beginning to relax like Trekker - while playing in the beautiful, blue Caribbean Ocean - it clouded up and rained for about 15 minutes. Everyone got soaked, but the day was warm, so as soon as the rainclouds disappeared, Trekker, Grandpa Ed and Grandma Linda dried in a hurry.
Another high point of the day was lunch at a roadside stand where we all enjoyed a tasty meal of bake and SHARK! No kidding!!! The “bake” part was like a scone, but the shark part was . . . well,
shark, so Trekker - who is a kitty at heart - was really happy with the menu. So happy, in fact, he purred all the way home!!!
