Virtual Jamaica: St. Mary's~ Old Spanish Bridge and Fern Gully

 

And today we are (virtually) back...

 

A relic remaining from the 17th century when the Spanish arrived and colonized this island.

Now, basically a tourist attraction complete with rope swings so you can cool off in the hot Jamaican sun.

And surprisingly...people are encouraged to carve their initials in its rocky face.

Nearby is Fern Gully...

A long drive into the rain forest that boasts an assortment of beautiful ferns and other natural botanicals.

 

A brief, but beautiful, excursion.

Wednesday, we will tour a Banana Plantation, and sample their wares!
