Have you
ever visited a
tropical island and been left wondering somewhat whether there isn't
more to ttopical scenery than sand and sea? Well if you have, you
should come
to Jamaica because when it comes to diversity our little Jamrock
doesn't disappoint. We have all the tropical scenery and more
that you could hope to see.
Our soaring mountains of variegated green, our winding streams, our
broad rivers and bright wooden houses nestled at the foot of hills are
so breatakingly gorgeous they fashion the ideal tropical
wallpaper.
Here's a peek.

Whenever I travel I make a point to seek out the inhabitants to see
how they live and work. So I have sought to give you some of that
reality here with the tropical scenery as a backdrop. You can see the
fisherman at work with his shrimp baskets on the river; also check out
the colourful clothes
drying on the line in the wind in true Jamaican style.
You didn't miss the
three donkeys did you?
Also our water falls
extend beyond Dunns River Falls to
include some deep into the interior. Powerful rocks pose for us
as the waters stream actoss in a constant flow.
Speaking of streams, as day dawns we happen upon this
peaceful misty setting and then as we head into the valley we are
greated by the gentle sounds and spectacular sights of more water.
