Jamaica Rave Scene?
This post is kind of odd for a Jamaica post but since the blog is Jamaica MY way, this is something I checked out! Earlier this year I started to plan a trip with my son who is 18. It was more difficult to plan than the trip we did when he was eleven. Now…

Sandhurst / Prestige Hotel – Kingston
I know I put up many accommodation reviews and all of them so far have been pretty great. I’ve never stayed in a place that I wouldn’t recommend…until this one. I hate to be the bearer of negative reviews out of Jamaica and this one rates pretty high on TripAdvisor but I guess I just…

Packing 101
This post isn’t specifically related to Jamaica but it’s related to YOU if you go to Jamaica.

UrbanDK & Black Nation Sound
This was another great show I attended on my last trip, which was an unusual trip because of the amount of shows I actually went to. I never party this much but that’s what happens when you travel with a bunch of DJ’s! On July 24, 2010 Black Nation Sound was having their 10th anniversary…
