Jammin Jamaica
... nightmare - me driving in a foreign country. I must admit though I have inherited a certain genetic disorder for driving and trying to sightsee at the same time. As such, Shana has to politely inform me when curbs and mountain edges get too close. Armed with just the map from the car rental company you'd think it would be quite simple getting around after all it's not a huge country and theres basically a main road that goes around the entire ...

... under dressed. I was so surprised when I showed up to the graduation and the teachers had on fancy ball gowns and not just the teachers but the parents and everyone in attendance were so fancy.
