This series has come to an end, and so has carnival 2012. In Port-of-Spain the police shut down last lap quite early tonight – at 10:30 pm with the stated reason that there were three violent incidents. Hmm. I questioned an inspector about it given that the law that people fought for allows us to fete until midnight. She said they wouldn’t be able to clear the streets in time (insert side-eye here). Nevertheless, that’s all folks. It has been a pleasure to blog de carnaval with you in tow. Look for more posts in the future, although the beads and feathers of Tuesday will not be that abundant in this blog, I’m quite inclined to give a little lagniappe on other things carnival. In the meantime, a little something from the late calypsonian Lord Kitchner: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bdk4DCyaOLA
