Today we begin the countdown to Carnival in Trinidad with the first in a week’s worth of features previewing the Caribbean’s biggest bacchanal.
Trinidad Carnival is seven days away, but if you’re lucky enough to be in Port of Spain, you’ve got a week’s worth of feting ahead before the start of J’Ouvert, not to mention the International Soca Monarch Finals on “Fantastic Friday.” From Machel Monday to Sunday-morning “breakfast parties,” we’ve got your pre-Carnival week planned out.
