JAMAICA!
When I landed in Montego Bay the first thing to hit me was how warm it was! It felt wonderful, to be so warm! MaryLynne, the friend I was meeting in Jamaica, arrived a short time before me, with her son Lars. We joined his friend Sis and our taxi driver Barry, for a wild taxi ride to Negril.
The driving in Jamaica is not the highway driving we are used to in the USA. Amazingly enough the taxi drivers are skilled at stopping on a dime, passing quickly, controling the car around several curves and swerving around all the bikers and walkers on the narrow streets. (You do get used to it!)

Jamaica ~~ An Assortment Of Pictures That Give You The Feel Of What It's Like At A Glance.
This Bob Marley wooden sculpture was on a hotel wall. He is everywhere, in every media imaginable.
Fishing boats, the lighthouse, boganvillia, paintings, glass bottoms boats, the tide coming in with a splash. These are common, everyday sights as MaryLynne and I walked and walked around Negril.
Flowers and beautiful plants are everywhere and so are goats! Fruit was hanging on the trees, ripe for the picking. This tree was abundant with Acai, a specialty in Jamaica. Acai and Saltfish in a pattie, a favorite for breakfast. Yes, the water is really that blue! Beautiful.
