http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2010/12/photos-taken-in-jamaica-at-ocho-rios.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Friday, 17 December 2010. PHOTOS TAKEN IN JAMAICA, AT OCHO RIOS AND THE JEWELL, DUNN'S RIVER. Bird sculpture in the ground of The Jewell. Brilliant piece of wood carving - bigger than life-size, at the fisherman's shack food outlet, where we had some fried parrot fish and fried bammy. We saw this memorial plaque when visiting the Dunn's River Falls, it was right next to the waterfall. Labels: Dunns River Falls. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

LEAVING LONDON BEHIND: FIREFLY, NEAR ORACABESSA, JAMAICA, HOME OF NOEL COWARD
http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2010/12/firefly-near-oracabessa-jamaica-home-of.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Friday, 17 December 2010. FIREFLY, NEAR ORACABESSA, JAMAICA, HOME OF NOEL COWARD. VISIT TO THE HOUSE CALLED 'FIREFLY' BY NOEL COWARD, THE ENGLISH SONGWRITER, PLAYWRIGHT AND ACTOR. Lovely place, fantastic views over the bay. Statue of Noel Coward is placed on the hillside overlooking the sea and mountains. Desmond, an excellent driver, took us to Firefly, up a terrible rutted and holed track. Potholes big enough to swallow a small goat, I think!

http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2010/12/bringing-gifts-not-aways-good-idea.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Friday, 17 December 2010. BRINGING GIFTS - NOT AWAYS A GOOD IDEA - JAMAICA TIME. They said they would be at the hotel by about 12 midday - they finally turned up at gone 2.30 and with a little boy in the car, which caused consternation here - an adults only complex. The security guard came running into the lobby, saying "They have arrived, and there is a child in the car.". Then went to a small beach some way away, where people were playing footbal...

http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Wednesday, 20 February 2008. ONE - TO INDIA. Exactly one week to go, so spent long time reading the One Bag website, which is one of my favourites when travelling. www.onebag.com. I realize I am without some essentials to pack particularly special clothes line, and ear plugs. Trip to buy same tomorrow. Waiting delivery of sleep masks from Magellan. Our itinerary is roughly:. First night at Colombo, in hotel north of that city, near Negombo. I do dr...

LEAVING LONDON BEHIND: October 2010
http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Sunday, 3 October 2010. MARRAKESH, RIAD KNISAS, DERB HOTEL BAB DOUKALA. Set off from Gatwick airport using Ryanair (or was it Easyjet, can't remember). No problem with small cases or - that nuisance - the plastic bag for liquids, but what did happen? My contact lens lotion emptied itself all over the contents of case so couldn't use contact lenses during whole of stay. No shops in the Medina that sold such a thing as contact lens lotion. Red rose p...

LEAVING LONDON BEHIND: March 2008
http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Friday, 28 March 2008. TWENTY NINE - The Horrors of Flight. The last night in Goa, we decided to go to the Alpha club again, to see if the music was any better, and also to look at the jewellery stall, where the rings and bracelets were better than usual tourist tat. No much joy there, as the stalls were not booked in because of the heavy rain. The young rock musicians were doing a version of the Stones, which seemed a bit dated. It was a great and...

http://pauline-leavinglondonbehind.blogspot.com/2010/12/wassi-arts-near-ocho-rios-ceramics.html
Travels near and far - India, Morocco, USA, UK, Jamaica. Friday, 17 December 2010. WASSI ARTS, NEAR OCHO RIOS, CERAMICS SHOWROOM AND WORKSHOP. AN EASY VISIT FROM OCHO RIOS IS TO WASSI ARTS. We were so impressed with the beautiful ceramics at this little 'factory'. It was difficult to come away without buying lots of pots, but of course we couldn't do that because of luggage weight restrictions and the small amount of space in our bags.
