Virtual Jamaica: Things are not Always What They Seem in This Place

 

 
Well...we didn't find a dirt-bike race...but there was The Donkey Festival.

Which did have donkey races.

 Actually the (loud...braying....funny) donkey races was just the tip of the iceberg...there were also beer chugging contests...many vendors booths...food...and the locals (...some as colorful as their donkeys).

What an odd place this Clarendon Parish...of radioactive spa waters and donkey races.

 
 I have to wonder if it is the radioactive water, the ganja, the people or just Clarendon itself that makes this place a little odd...

Anyway...next week we will move on to Manchester...and not a moment too soon!
