I did not follow my wife trekking in Tibet

We must be married to the same type of woman--my spouse has an obsession about trekking Tibet or Nepal which is becoming more and more difficult to quash. I adamantly refuse to go, and it looks like she'll someday go without me.

This thread is rapidly becoming a Chatwin-esque travel board. Nice!

Trinidad and Tobago sound marvelous. I remember collecting its beautiful stamps as a child.

Airport security is still a joke, in my opinion. It will never be fool-proof, even if El Al's procedures are instituted across the board.

As I tried to suggest in my post, entering the US informally is still very easy.

All of this, of course, deals with the possibility of another terrorist strike in the US. Not if, but when, in my view. I think the markets will take such an event with a lot more sang froid than the '01 catastrophe. Dung beetles should not get their digestive tract ready for the fall out from such an event.

Your plans for T/T sound wonderful. Do you celebrate the New Year's holiday? If so, Happy New Year's! If not, Happy New Year's anyway.
