Here we are...our last day in Jamacia.
I'm really going to miss all this!
...if I had discovered Jamaica in my 20's I would have soooooooooooooooooooo moved here...
But, here we go...

One of the first signs you'll see is TRESSPASSERS WILL BE EATEN.

Swamp Safari

A little cramped and old.
A few hands on programs...which was nice.
A final souvenir.

Most of what Trelawny offers is much of what we have already experienced on this trip...beautiful beaches...waterfalls...plantations...food...duppy...rum production.
Then I saw the Swamp Safari!
The more I read about it...the more interesting it seemed.
Friday, we will go on a Swamp Safari!!!!!
Until then...
Had one of the most beautifully pure moments near the end of a Friday visit when Lachlan was sleepy...and he came over and laid his curly head on my lap and looked up with those huge eyes and quietly said
"I love you."
Unprompted.
Totally honest and innocent.
There are no words.
This is what makes life worthwhile.
I would die for this child.
Yesterday, my little sister was over.
We had Fettuccine Alfredo with Grilled Chicken from the Fluttering Duck...and I made a Dutch Apple Crumb Pie with Whipped Cream and Caramel Drizzle for afters.
Brunch and chat, and the kids brought Lachlan back over so she could see him!
Laughed when I saw the tee-shirt she had bought both of us...because I had also recently seen it and bookmarked it to buy.
FBW is progressing.
Really hoping he gets the title this year!
John is back to radiation and chemo, now.
We're hopeful.
Taking it all one day at a time...and today is FOOTBALL!
His team taking on The Texans.
Mine taking on Miami.
And there are snacks, of course!
Autumn is here.
The pink morning glories are giving it one last hurrah and they are lovely in the golden morning light.
And all is right in my world.
Such a crowd voting yesterday that they are adding an additional day (today) for the first round candidates so that everyone gets to vote. Yesterday, there were so many votes, that it actually crashed the site.
That is a lot of votes.
Woke to the sounds of Fall, today. The Hummers and Tree Frogs leaving and crows and crickets taking their places. The endless tze...tze..tzeeeeeeeeeee of cicadas winding down and subtle change of colours in the trees because Hoodie Weather is finally here!!!
54 degrees when I first checked.
The Fat Bear site wasn't the only thing that crashed this week...there was the matter of my phone (replacing today) that gave up the ghost.
For 3 days communication has been solely e-mail.
It has been unusually quiet.
Probably not going to start that last Jamaican parish until next week.
Off for brunch with Susan...
later,
C
I'm not sure yet who I'm voting for...
John and I watched the Chiefs/Colts game last night. OMG!!! So good.
It went into OT and The Chiefs barely eked out a 3 point win.
This year I won the standing $5.00 bet.
...I'm framing it...
Both teams look amazing this year!
We're dealing...adjusting to...John's Update.
He starts chemo again on Friday.
More as it comes...

The good news...next month we'll be halfway through!!!!!
Chaos reigns.
This month we've seen:
...the war is over...okay it's not...just give us two more years...yeah...no...the first amendment...not really familiar with that one...gas is crazy expensive...deal with it...housing is crazy expensive...deal with it...food is crazy expensive...deal with it...
Yeah...November is coming!
VOTE!
Our last day in Montego Bay...
There has been so much to do here, it is hard to know where to begin!
Sailing boats and catamarans...complete with snorkeling.
