Chillin

We went to a boat fete last night on a ship called Captain John's. It was really really intresting to see the old ship that had its original inteior left and turned into a floating soca fete. The volym was madness, we had to stay 20 meters from the speakers not to get def. The audince was diffrent then i thougt to, real cool to expirence. We didnt do too much dancing thou. We still got some jetlag and has to keep the energy for tonights dance> GLOW.

We'll in the mean time I recommend that you all take another listening on our mixtape from Trini Carnival 2k8. Still hasn't completed the one for summer yet with all the new good music from the smaller island st Lucia, st Vincent and so on.
