Christmas: Botanical Gardens, Port-of-Spain, Trinidad & Tobago

Wishing you all the best for Christmas! I hope you are spending it with friends and family and enjoying their company.

This continues to be my favourite time of year!  I can’t wait to eat some paimie and black cake and drink some sorrel! Some Caribbean classics…  What are your must eat Christmas foods?

Also kinda anxious to see what is under the tree! lol!

Anyway, Merry Christmas to all!

Laters!
