I Didn’t Make It To Alligator Pond
But I spent two days at the “Riva” I must thank my lucky stars that I meet the coolest people or I would never discover half the magic I find in Jamaica. I don’t usually start backwards and blog about the end of my trips first but I spent my final two days on…

All-Day Breakfast and Smurfs in Jamaica?
I know how us foreigners love our all-day breakfast joints such as Denny’s and IHOP back home. Well I found it in Jamaica! All-day breakfast with a little touch of yaad. Last week I went for another motorbike tour with my friend Shelley and his bike posse. As usual we rode from Hilltop all the…

Way Back When in Black River, Jamaica
I bet you didn’t know…… The sleepy little town of Black River on Jamaica’s south coast has SO much to do with the island’s history. I sure didn’t know until I went on the most amazing walking tour of the town, led by local history buff and Black River resident, Allison Morris. I had…

Lovers Leap – St Elizabeth, Jamaica
Lovers Leap on Jamaica’s south coast is one of those natural wonders kind of like Niagara Falls – you can’t even understand it’s magnitude until you’ve been there and seen it. Pictures and video do it NO justice whatsoever. I had to go discover it for myself. This was another fabulous road trip made possible…

Paradise Ocean View – Black River, Jamaica
Serendipity – making desirable discoveries by accident I owe my discovery of Paradise Ocean View to two completely separate but fortuitous events that happened the same day. Let me explain. The first event was the crappy experience I was having at my previous accommodation – Golden Lagoon. The second event was meeting two awesome…
