An immigration error…

Last night, after we posted we ran into a cruiser named Lee who took pity on us sitting outside the shower house to get internet access and offered us his old wifi antenna. We visited with them awhile aboard their boat, and he also commented on the procedures for clearing immigration, and how you had to check in at the airport and also here in Chagaraumas. Hmm, well, Jim and I kept pretty quiet and nodded our heads...but we didn't do that. So after we got back from our shopping trip this morning we walked over to the local immigration office and checked....and what do you know...we were scofflaws! A 75TT fee per person and a refresher on the procedures and we are now fully compliant and have permission to stay in Trinidad for 3 months.
