Onward to Trinidad

On 25 Nov 2013 we finally made it to the West Indies Mission headquartered in Trinidad.  We left the Dominican Republic and flew to Panama (no direct flight on Caribbean Air).  It must be hard work at the airport in Panama City.

This is what we saw while in Panama.

 

The evening we arrived in Trinidad the Missionaries in Trinidad were all gathered at the home of President and Sister Mehr for their Thanksgiving dinner (it was held on Monday the missionaries preparation day).  I found out that I have 2 cousins serving missions in Trinidad they are Elder Hatch and Elder Hatch (brothers and companions).

 

Of course we had to work hard in Trinidad!!!

 

Sister Moore hard at work!!!

 

The road in front of our bed and breakfast.

The road in the other direction - notice the Christmas decorations.

Elder Moore on the stairs to the roof top.

The view from the roof.  Up on the hill is a monastery.  This is looking North, the mountains in Trinidad are on the North side of the Island.

The house across the street as seen from our roof top view.

 

Not all of Trinidad is this rich our bed and breakfast is in a very rich section of the island.

The senior missionaries working in the Mission Office.  Yes that included us while we were there.

Left to right Elder Ray, Sister Ray, Elder Smith, Sister Smith, Sister Sue Ray, Elder Bateman, Sister Bateman, and Sister Moore, missing is Elder Moore, he had the camera.  There is one more couple in the office, Elder and Sister Monson, they were out on assignment when we had this dinner.

This was our last supper in Trinidad before flying to Barbados.

 

On 29 Nov 2013 we left Trinidad to go to Barbados.  Of course the plane did not go straight there we stopped in Grenada where some got off the plane and more got on.  Elder and Sister Smith flew to Grenada on the same flight.
