Zion Country Beach Cabins Port Antonio

Let me be honest with you all this isn't about any great adventure i've had or even will had but perhaps may very well have a trip to the desert land of senegal. You see dear reader i'm embarking on a literary adventure regarding the land & people of Senegal with a book titled " Walls of Jericho" a narrative of the perilous journey of a group of ...

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!

... dont really know what im doing this weekend, going to spend most of it with the host family. Ill try to take pictures and post them on a reall website soon, hopefully ill get some of this house but i need to ask the host family first.

... classey hotel in the nice side of town (had a koi pond) we meet the acting ambassador and watched some jamaican singers do stuff, they sang some cool songs but i was really hoping they would sing the banana song from beetlejuice...they didnt. after that we had some training classes pretty much from 9 till 6:30 .  All the teachers are hillarious and incredibly nice.  The person in charge for security at the embassey came to talk to us he kept making jokes about all ...

I got a ride from the airport to the upper town. After check in, I ventured in the city and was soon offered some "stuff". Oh well, no thank you. The Bob Marley museum is quite interesting and probably the only notable attraction in Kingston (other than this feeling of being in a different country).

... around at the moment so no getting near - one hopes they going to see about renovating it. The lighthouse is operated by the Port Authority and the chap there is wiiling to let you in to view the structure and eat. I brought my mat, sat under a tree and ate and read. Parking: Free Entry: Free The town has most major banks: Bank of Nova Scotia, First Caribbean and another one I can't ...

... our cabins and had a quick snack (well...starter) in the very nice Waterfront restaurant. That dealt with the immediate hunger and we then headed off to do the mandatory emergency drills....which seemed to drag a little. No rest for the wicked....we headed to the 2nd free buffet restaurant where 10 of us sat down for a meal together...turkey Christmas dinner for most or the delicious spicy ...

... is getting to be expensive. I eventually will have to drink the water from the sink. My host family drinks the water from the sink. It's safe but my host mom says that since I am not used to it I should wean myself into drinking it. Some vol. are drinking rain water-they boil it first. *No air conditioning-a/c is a luxury here in Jamaica. Majority of the people and businesses don't have a/c and in some places it is cool enough where a/c is not needed. My ...

... so I only managed to snap a couple :o) A visit to Jamaica wouldn't be complete without a visit as literally everywhere you go you see and hear the influence of Bob Marley. We next headed to Sabina Park again, this time to see the West Indies V Zimbabwe. The West Indies are the home team so of course there were many more people at the game which made for a brilliant atmosphere. We were sat amongst the ...

... Fern Gully, both of which I'll be experiencing very soon I'm sure. The agency I'm working with, NERHA, is an arm of the Ministry of Health, and there are 4 Authorities in Jamaica, covering different regions, the others are Western, South, and Southeastern, and the other engineers in my training class are assigned to those regions. Initially when I got my assignment, I wasn't sure what to make of it. I pictured myself living in a small community ...
