Many people new to Trinidad, may think Maracas Beach, is the only beach, not true . . .

A 1/2 mile up the road is an the entrance to a secluded, less commercial, beach - Tyrico Bay.

Tyrico Bay captivated me initially with it's offer of seclusion.  So close to the neighboring Maracas Beach, busy with pre-carnival festivities, I had Tyrico Bay to myself.

Literally, 100 yards past the infamous Richard's Bake 'N Shark sandwich of Maracas Bay, I found a desolate beach. I walked to the East end of the bay without seeing another person.  I ventured to the West end of the bay without another person in sight.

Feeling like the apocalypse had happened and I was left behind; I turned on my Ipod and drifted away.

Drift Away

Time has a way of being

asleep on a towel,

at the beach,

a novel in hand,

but you drift off,

The wave's rushing in,

you feel it again,

It's time to awake  and arise

It's then that you realize

your still on a towel at the beach and have just drifted away
