Jamaica: Part Two

Part Two...

On Saturday, the day after we got there, we took the day to relax and adjust our bodies to the temperature there on the island. We went to the local Hi-Lo (kind of like a Wal-Mart) to buy snacks and drinks. My family and some friends went up on top of a mountain to take some pictures. Some people also use this day to take naps, go to the straw market, play card games, or go across the road to snorkel in the Caribbean.

Let's go shoppin'!

Yes, it is chicken feet. This is one delicacy I have yet to try in Jamaica. Maybe next year...

$299.00 for a burger?! Yep! In J money...;P

In Jamaica, you have to be prepared to "go with the flow" of things. No problem, mon!


No Diet Coke...just Coke Light....

You can't read the label very well on this bottle, but it is an Aloe Vera drink. They said that it was quite good! ;D

On top of the mountain, enjoying the view.

The view that were are blessed to enjoy from our motel.

Another one from our motel.....


This year, the police were on the move! All four of our vans got stopped sometime during the week. Some got stopped a couple of times! All for speeding (long story and alot of miscommunication). Here Daddy and one of our elders from church are talking to a policeman after being asked to get out of the vans that they were driving.

Some of our group went snorkeling and were able to enjoy this lovely sight that day. The Jamaican man even stuck a knife in the puffer fish and drained the water out of it! Yuck!


To be continued.....

Aloe Vera drink? I guess your insides won't get sunburned that way.
