carnival at la plaza hotel

< Previous | Home | Next >

HELLO I HAD MY FIRST EXPERIENCE IN PORT AU PRINCE AT CARNIVAL.

WE STAYED AT THE LA PLAZA HOTEL.

WOW! WHAT AN EXPERIENCE AND I DON'T MEAN IN A GOOD WAY. FIRST WHEN WE ARRIVED OUR LUGGAGE WAS DELAYED, NO PROBLEM.

SO, ME BEING A SPOILED AMERICAN AND ALL I POLITELY PHONED THE FRONT DESK AND EXPLAINED OUR SITUATION AND REQUESTED 2-TOOTH BRUSHES AND SOME TOOTH PASTE.

WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE HAD TO GO AND FIND OUR OWN TOOTH PASTE ON A SATURDAY NIGHT BEFORE CARNIVAL.WELL, STILL NOT A PROBLEM THE RIDE WAS INTERESTING, I GOT TO SEE SOME OF THE COUNTRY WHICH IS WHAT I WAS THERE FOR(I WANTED TO EXPERIENCE ALL).

WE WENT TO DINNER IN PETIONVILLE
I HAD NEVER BEEN IN A PLACE WITH THAT MUCH SECURITY, BUT,I DID FEEL SAFE AND MOST OF THE OFFICERS I SEEN WERE HOT(I MEAN VERY PROFESSIONAL LOOKING).

THE DAY OF CARNIVAL, I WOKE UP TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WEATHER.

I WOKE UP AND FOLLOWED MY NORMAL ROUTINE JUST LIKE I WAS HOME. I GOT UP GOT MY STUFF TOGETHER AND WENT TO THE BATHROOM(ALTHOUGH MY LUGGAGE WAS BEHIND, I DID HAVE THE MOST IMPORTANT GARMENTS)MY at #$%%^^^ THAT WAS WITH ME SHARED ONE OF HIS T-SHIRTS, MY JAENS WERE STILL CLEAN, READY TO HOP IN THE SHOWER AND DID. LO AND BEHOLD THE TUB WAS STOPPED UP. BEING THAT I WAS NOT IN MY COUNTRY, I MENTIONED WITH MAKING A BIG FUSS, LIKE IF I WAS HOME I WOULD HAVE HAD A SUITE AND FREE DINNER.WELL WE GOT OUR LUGGAGE, CAME BACK TO THE HOTEL, CHANGE AND GOT OUT AND ABOUT.

I LOVED MEETING THE PEOPLE AND CHECKING OUT THE SCENERY.

WHEN CARNIVAL BEGAN I WAS EXCITED.

THAT NIGHT IN WAS WAITING FOR T-VICE AND KREYOLA.

I'D HEARD THE MUSIC WANTED TO SEE THE PEOPLE.

THEN THE NIGHTMARE FROM HELL SHOWED UP. THERE WAS AN HATIAN SISTER, THAT EVIDENTLY WAS STAYING AT THE HOTEL.

AND I THINK SHE MUST HAVE THOUGHT SHE HAD A SPECIAL PLACE ON THE STAND, BECAUSE SHE TIED HER T-SHIRT TO THE RAIL AND EXPECTED NO ONE TO STAND IN HER SPOTEVEN WHEN SHE WENT TO POTTY.

THE SISTER DEVELOPED AN ATTITUDE WHEN I DID NOT COMPLY WITH HER RULES AND REGS. AND BEGAN ACTING WHAT WE CALL HERE IN THE STATES A BIT (NO A LOT GHETTO) SHE MAY HAVE PICKED THAT UP SENSE SHE MOVED TO MAIMI.

BUT, AGAIN ME BEING WHO I AM, I IGNORED HER. THE NEXT DAY I SEEN HER, SHE ASKED ME IF I WAS HAITIAN.

NOW I KNEW THAT SHE ALREADY KNEW THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION BEING SHE REC'V THE INFO. FROM THE #$$%^^ I WAS WITH. IT WAS JUST THE FACT THAT SHE EVEN ASKED OR SAID ANYTHING TO ME. ESSPECIALLY AFTER NOT SPEAKING FIRST.

THE WHEN I SEEN HER AGAIN, I FIGURED IT OUT SHE KNEW I WAS WITH A HATIAN GUY. I DON'T KNOW WHY THE UPSET, HELL I WASN'T CAUSING ANY TROUBLE.

AND SENSE I'VE BEEN KNOWING THIS $%%&&** I FIGURED HIM OUT TOO. BUT, I PERSONALLY THINK THAT WE AS AMERICAN WOMEN GET A BAD REP. I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE WOMEN THAT WILL PAY OR WILL BE WILLING TO PAY ANY BROTHER NOMATTERS WHERE HE'S FROM. HE WAS GOING TO HAITI, I WANTED THE EXPERIENCE YES WE DATE. SO I WANTED TO SEE THE COUNTRY.

WILL I COME BACK YES. BUT.LA PLAZA AND WHAT'S HER NAME FROM MIAMI I'M NOT SURE. CAN SOME ONE PLEASE TELL ME OF SOME BETTER HOTELS NEAR PORT AU PRINCE AND NOT SO EXPENSIVE(675.00).

AND PEOPLE STOP ASSUMING THAT BECAUSE WE ARE IN THE U.S.THAT WE HAVE MONEY.

I WORKED, AND SAVED AND DRIVE A CRAPPY CAR, SO I CAN DO SOME OF THE THINGS I WANT TO DO.AND PLEASE DON'T GET ME WRONG I AM VERY HUMBLED SINCE I LEFT HAITI
