Jamaica was my very first missions trip. I went with Shayna and Chad for one week and we had an amazing and eye opening experience. The water was beautiful and we went to ocho rios and climbed the waterfal too-it was so beautiful! We also witnessed poverty and need in ways that we had never seen before. We were able to minister God's love to people but honestly I think we all took away much more from this experience than we could ever give!

The road to the Lighthouse will take you pass the Folly Great House Ruins. This is completely ...

After what seemed a long wait we had the oddest immigration control we've ever had...kept separate, we handed in our forms to a cruise rep and escaped through a side door to buses which took us over the hill to Freeport and our waiting ship. Hand baggage was scanned and we were searched before boarding. With the help of Andy and Max we ...

... Popo is: The cat that lives with us. She was pregnant during the time that I was there. She had her kittens-3 kittens. My living conditions are: *I have my own room inside the house *There is no hot water--- Taking a cold shower in the mornings was such a pain but now I'm getting used to it.

... of 1907. We were able to see some of the defenses and canon's which gave us a feel for the Fort. Monday 19th March We got an early start and headed to Bob Marleys House before heading to the cricket. Although there's not a huge amount to see I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of looking around the home of one of the most impressive musicians of all time. They were very strict in stopping people taking ...

... Drum role please....Ocho Rios will be my new home and there I'll be working with the Northeastern Regional Health Authority as a Sanitation Engineer. From what I know so far about Ocho Rios (aka Ochi) is that it is a very popular tourist destination, receiving a couple of cruise ships every week. Ochi is on the North coast, and has white sand beaches and blue green waters. There are some other natural wonders close by, like Dunns River Falls ...
