See ya soon, Tobago!

Saturday morning was kind of rough since we didn't go to bed until like 1am haha. We were all up & ready by 7 on the dot & headed down to Scarborough for our Rainforest hike in Gilpin Trace National Park. Once there we were met by our tour guide, Junior Thomas. He gave us all a pair of rain boots to borrow then we were on our way through the trail. The first was super nice & shady the whole time. Hearing the birds & water, smelling the nature around us, & seeing a the pretty plants was a nice comparison to Washington's forests. Of course they were very different types of forests but still, it was nice haha. The hike was 2 hours long & during it, we stepped in huge puddles of mud, took pictures in front of huge bamboo plants & got to swing on some vines! It was a day well spent. We got back to the cabins with an hour to get ready before we left to catch our flight back to Trinidad. It was sad to leave Tobago because it was such a beautiful place & we got to do so many new things but we will definitely be back to visit! At baggage claim, we met a local Trinidadian artist, Olatunji, or Ola, & got to take pictures with him! Varsha followed him on IG saw that he posted a picture of us on his page so we were all super excited haha. You can pretty much say we're famous ;) Roger Rabbit picked us up & took us straight back to the lodge. We all disbursed & unpacked/had dinner together at 7 again along with a meeting to debrief on the past week. It was a great week overall & coming back to the lodge is bittersweet... Now we have to mentally prepare for classes at UWI which start on Monday! Ahhh!
