This morning we wander through the old centre of Trinidad, visiting one of the many interesting museums which reflect Trinidad’s varied history.
In the early 19th century French settlers, fleeing a slave revolt in Haiti, landed and started to grow sugar cane in the Valle de Los Ingenios. This crop generated considerable wealth and consequently the town had to be regularly defended from pirates.
The afternoon is free to simply relax on nearby Playa Ancon, or continue to wander through Trinidad’s lovely colonial streets: a paradise for photographers.
