In fact, It talks about Port Antonio, a slower paced, more relaxed authentic Jamaican experience on the north coast. Here is a map of Jamaica and [...]

Winters Coming, and I Want the Beach
The first snow fall this season came down yesterday. And today. And probably tomorrow. If you can’t tell, I’m not very excited. I mean, like winter and Christmas and everything, I just wouldn’t mind it if winter were only one month long. When it starts in November and doesn’t leave until March, I’m hating life. [...]

As summer comes to an end, and the leaves start to change, I really want to get away to the beach. I’m not one of those people who hate fall or winter. I just hate the cold. My wife loves it, she would never want to move away from the snow. In fact, she’d like [...]

Where Should We Go in Jamaica?
I posted before about where we were staying in Jamaica, but that is changing. For unforeseen reasons, we are going to stay somewhere else. But I’m surfing the “information superhighway,” and finding no information. It’s more like a dirt road sometimes than a highway. Maybe because I work with websites to become better, and more [...]

Seven Natural Wonders of the Caribbean
Robert Curley at About.com named a list of the Seven Natural Wonders of the Caribbean. Some of these places I’ve never heard of.

Jamaica From a Jamaican (Naturalized)
I recently had a comment on my post about Jamaica and mangoes. Lady Roots is from America, but moved to, and is a naturalized citizen of Jamaica.

Eating a Mango. Wishing for Jamaica and the Beach.
Just sitting here eating a mango, thinking about the beach and Jamaica. I’m also listening to “Underneath the Mango Tree” from Dr. No. Yeah, I’m also a big James Bond fan. The fruit in the Caribbean is something else. This mango is good, but if you eat one in Jamaica, you wouldn’t be able to [...]

A giant two day concert is coming to Montego Bay, Jamaica in July. From the 19th to the 20th, the 15th Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest will celebrate Jamaica and reggae music. Sounds like a lot of fun, although I’m not sure I really care to see all of the groups playing. But hey, who cares [...]
