Yesterday was mostly spent down at the local Grafton Beach, where the main entertainment was the Tobago International Triathlon competition. It was exhausting just watching. I hate to think what it was like actually competing in that heat.
Today we did a round-the-island trip. This included a snorkeling stop at Englishman's Bay, and a lunch stop at Charlotteville. Unfortunately this being Sunday, the locals also decided to stop for the day, so no lunch. Our final stop of the day was Speyside where we checked out a dive shop for possible future scuba expeditions, and managed to find somewhere open for food. Then a long and winding journey back to Grafton via Scarborough on the Atlantic cost road.
Travelling around Tobago is a strange experience, not least because all the place names seem to have been chosen by pulling a random selection of Scottish and English names out of a hat. So for example, we are in Grafton, which is near to Plymouth, but only a short drive on to Scarborough!
