for someone who is going to Trinidad for the first time for Carnival 2010, and wants to play mas, does anyone have suggestions of where to stay (hotels, location, etc.). I have fam in Trinidad, but just in case that don't work out for one reason or another... are there any hotels that most people stay at during carnival season.

Also I want to register with Tribe, what is the likelihood that I will get the section I want to play in before it is sold out?
