Yvonne Russell is the person behind E-JAM JOBS and the winner of this month’s photo contest; photography is her passion. “Jamaica is a photographer’s dream – a tropical paradise. I am humbled by the simplicity and innocence of the country lifestyle; marveled by the attractive backdrop of our lush mountains; the rivers, sunsets, sunrises, beaches, the flavor of our people and our succulent foods”.

YEAH MON – Is there an App for that?

Thursday, October 29th, 2009 | Author: JC

Apparently there REALLY is an app for everything with Iphone! This is something I just noticed in Sangster airport since September because I never noticed it in April.

It’s an application for Iphone where you can see and hear Jamaican Patois and learn to speak it LOL. Hilarious! Mind you, after looking over it, it only shows basic Patois but it does have the most common phrases you might hear. I wonder if the full application gets into anything complicated?

Anyways, if you have an Iphone and are bored on your plane to Jamaica, and you feel like learning some lingo, I guess you can download this app!

I wonder if it explains what Gaza and Gully are? :D :D

Landing in Montego Bay

Monday, October 26th, 2009 | Author: JC

Landing in Montego Bay is wicked and it NEVER gets old! I just did my 9th trip and still….I always book my seat on the right side of the plane because that’s the side you can see the island on when coming in. I take pictures every single time I land there too. Like I said, it never gets old!

One of the best places to swim in Mobay is Dead End Beach. Why? Because its RIGHT BESIDE the airport and the planes fly super low over your head while you’re in the water. If you like planes like I do, its awesome!!
