    I haven’t been to Jamaica since the mid-1990s, so I’m sure that many things have changed. I’d like to go back and give it a second chance. It’s such a beautiful country and your photos look very inviting! We stayed at a nice resort in Montego Bay, but we always like to get out an explore when we travel. Unfortunately, it was during those driving trips to Negril, Ocho Rios and other places that we encountered less than friendly & intimidating people and situations. Please tell me that Jamaica is a friendlier and safer place now!

    I like the huts on the rocky cliffs, with the aqua marine water.  Very nice!

    Believe it or not, eating Jerk Pork with a nice frozen concoction on the beach at Montego Bay was one of my highlights :)
