I just started reading your report last night and with everything I've been going through it is exactly what I needed. I knew it was going to be good just by the number of responses you had received but wanted to wait until I could sit and absorb every word.

And absorb I did. I cannot believe how beautifully you write and how gorgeous your pictures are.

This report will help me get thru my severe withdrawls I know I will have later as our family trip to Jamaica is postponed until..well just until we can go. With my Mom's passing and me having to take time off of work and all the extra expenses that come with a death and with my daddy living with me now, I am not sure when I will get there. So Thank you ... this report is by far one of the best I've ever read and I cannot wait to read more of it.

I'm really happy you all find it tolerable. Didn't know what to expect when I started it, other than using "the sisters" reports as guides - but I figured if I was going to do a trip report, I'd lay it all on the line. Thanks to you all for taking the time to read through my rather verbose rantings.

quote by SH:
People are struggling, yet beneath the stress is the love of life shared by most Jamaicans. David and Patty found it difficult to believe that the recently increased minimum wage is a paltry $2400 Jamaican per week. That’s $40 US per week folks. I go through $40 on breakfast and lunch alone in the cafeteria at work on a good week. On a bad week it’s closer to $50 and that doesn’t include months like I’m having now, where I haven’t cooked a meal period. Yet people in Jamaica make it work. Frankly the figure troubles me – a vast percentage of the Jamaican population are laborers, where a price is determined through negotiations without any real hourly rate being figured into the equation. Others in the finance and hotel industries probably make significantly more than the minimum wage. How many Jamaicans are actually living on $2000 per week, even less?

I remember talking to 'Justin' who worked on the water sports team at Breezes MoBay and he said he makes $60/week. I told him he could move to the states and be a lifeguard at a swimming pool and make more than $60 a day. He couldn't believe it. But what's the trade off?

(((Cinni)))

This report serves as a refuge for a lot of us…a temporary escape to “a beautiful place” while we heal in one way or another. I’m glad you found it as I knew you would love it also. Sorry to hear you have to put your trip on hold but hopefully the time will pass quickly when you can stand barefoot on the shores of Jamaica again. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
