Hey guys and gals, just thought i'd share some photos again of our visit to our beautiful sister-isle of Tobago for the Easter weekend. This was our fifth visit and we had or largest contingent of 30 minis and a record of 62 passengers this year.
here is just a handful, i will have the rest before the week is through, as well as some videos:

I would like to applaud the efforts of Mr. Simon Kissoon (minipresident) who planned and executed this trip, despite many challenges.

Special mention must also be made of club members Mr Michael Jordan-Elcock as well as Mr. Eddie Morris (who made our army camp visit possible).
The efforts of Mr Bernard Steward and Patsy Melvelle made our visit to Radio Tambrin a success as well, i would also like to thank all TRINIMINI members who contributed to making our annual trip a success once again.
Thank you also to the Signal Hill Army camp as well as the management of Radio Tambrin 92.7 FM.
more pictures to come...........

Fantastic pictures, fantastic views and fantastic Minis. I bet there's no rust with nice weather like that.

:)

It's amazing to think the little Mini has such a big following all round the world. They should make TV programmes about it, much better than all the gloomy news these days.

:P

Amazed at the quality of the minis, also did anyone break down? If not I think I might have to try that prayer stuff before driving anywhere. = ]
