Jamaica

Our second stop on the trip was to Ochos Rios, Jamaica. We took an excursion to Dunn River Fall's, which was a giant falls that led into the Caribbean Ocean. We went with our friends Kami and Hank on this adventure. As you climb the falls you always hold the person's hand in front of you and behind you so that if you fall they can help you up. Of course, me being klutzy Schelley, fell and was lucky to be holding Nestor's hand or I would have fallen all the way down. It was beautiful and we wished that we had more time to hang out there. After the hike we shopped at the Jamaican stores and of course Nestor had to get the Bob Marley hat. He must have fit in with the locals because he was offered weed several times. Yea Mon, as they say.
It was a very poor island and extremely sad to see the people begging for money by the boat. It was hard not to give them all that we had.
