Okay I’m back again and I figured the most fitting first post would be the guest house I stayed at. It’s called Treasures, and it’s located in the town of Claremont in St Ann, Jamaica, which is way up in the hills. Not near a beach of any kind but the weather and scenery are to die for up here! Its so much cooler in the hills. Treasure’s guest house is owned by a Jamaican, Peter Treasure. He fixed up the place and has been running it for the last couple years. ...
This is another repost from the ones I lost in June and I thought it was quite fitting to post it now because I’ll be waving at Jamaica in 2 days!!! Waving HELLO that is! Waves against the rocks on Jamaica's north coast. I can never get enough of watching the sea that surrounds Jamaica. Its funny how we take things for granted because I can see the amazing Rocky Mountains where I live any day. And even though millions of tourists come here to see them, I would much rather see the...
Just wanted to inform you all of my first photo contest winner today! She had the most votes in our theme contest of “Jamaican People”. And here’s her gorgeous photo!! And here’s the caption the winner wanted to include: “There is so much to do in Jamaica, but some times there is much fun to be had by doing the mundane. It had been a while since my friend’s hair had been twisted; the new growth was fuzzing up around his roots so we decided that the day would...
This is another re-post from the ones that I lost a while back Canoe restaurant in Negril is definitely worth writing about and definitely worth visiting! The suggestion to eat here came from my good friend Alice who lives in Negril, and a group of my forum friends from all over North America were meeting this afternoon for lunch and a sunset. Alice recommended it because the price is right, the food is GREAT and its literally about 20 feet from the water! Beachfront dining in Negril Canoe restaurant...
Glistening Waters, also known as Luminous Lagoon, in Falmouth is probably one of the coolest natural wonders I’ve ever seen and was well worth the time and $20. A dear friend of mine told me about it years ago and I’ve ALWAYS wanted to go, just never did until trip #8. The ONLY downside to this attraction is it’s not easy to film or photograph….I tried. Glistening Waters is definitely a nighttime attraction and is a nice alternative to clubbing every night in Jamaica LOL....
This is just a fun post since I was going through my pictures since 2003 and started to notice a pattern! There is no shortage of over-friendly, affectionate Jamaicans! From young to old, they just wanna spread some love LOL! This youngster was too cute. His name is Fabian and he had to work to get this kiss! I have a whole series of photos leading up to this accomplishment. This next one is a police officer friend of mine whom I stayed with in Savanna-La-Mar. Not sneaky at all….I don’t...
