DOCKED IN JAMAICA

                                THE TALL GUY WAS ON STILTS...JERK CHICKEN, ANYBODY?
CARRIE ON THE 7TH DECK...WATCHING THE PEOPLE DISEMBARKING TO BUM AROUND JAMAICA

WELCOME TO JAMAICA

TWO LADIES WERE JIGGING ON THE STREET...TO STEEL DRUM, KEYBOARD, DRUMS, ETC.

MY FRIEND CRISTOF.  HE WAS ON EASTER BREAK.  HIS DAD IS A TAXI DRIVER AND HE CAME INTO TOWN TO BUM AROUND.  HIS FAMILY HAS SIX CHILDREN, AND FOUR HAD DIED, HE SAID.  HE WAS TEXTING ON HIS CELL PHONE WHEN I SAT DOWN NEAR HIM.  I WAS SURPRISED THAT ENGLISH ONLY IS SPOKEN THERE.  WE HAD A NICE CHAT WHILE I WAITED FOR CARRIE TO SHOP.  IT WAS VERY HOT.

CHRISTOF AND I

THIS SHIP WAS BEING LOADED WITH BOXITE.  I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S USED FOR, BUT IT LOOKS SANDY COLORED AND ALSO HAS THE TEXTURE OF SAND FROM WHAT I COULD SEE.

THE HARBOR FROM THE SHIP

THIS HARBOR TUG CALLED THE "MANATEE" GUIDED OUR SHIP INTO THE HARBOR AT COZUMEL, MEXICO.
