Ocho Rios, Jamaica


Christmas Day we left Logan Airport in Boston for Ocho Rios, Jamaica. This was our first trip to the Carribean. Learning about new cultures, food and having total relaxation was the reason for the vacation. It was an education. But the good food: Indian cuisine, Jamaican jerk chicken with some delicious rum drinks - oh my! And to sit on the beach and look at the beautiful water! Just a treat.
The houses all have wrought iron grilles. Some of the architectural details are very interesting. Their so called arts and crafts are all Indonsian imports. Didn't need to spend money there.

The gardens are fabulous. Their gardens are filled with our house plants (or maybe the other way around!)
Came home New Year's Eve to a snowstorm. No Problem, as they say in Jamaica!
