Have a QUESTION?

An Irie Jamaican - born & bred there

by Joyce
(Toronto)

Yup, I had a great time on my visit, I actually stayed a month long but it was still too short. If you know what I mean.

There is a lot of changes around, the new highways, new communities etc.

Next time I will get me a Jamaican map.

Spanish Town needs proper directions (sign posts) we had to ask directions to Braeton fron a cop who was nice enough to drive before us to lead us safely to the highway. See - there still is some nice police officers around.

I love Jamaica n yes I'm a born Jamaican, no matter what anyone say or how bad they think it is. I am from St. James n I get around good in MoBay and surrounding areas well.

Anyway I'm not beating the areas or directions because I have not gone to Braeton in over 15 years - my fault. This will be back on my yearly visits. Love what they did in the area n love the tolls. Talk later n mi gone now.

Editor's Note
Yes Joyce, lots of changes - some highways, new hotels, restaurants and all, but the beauty of Jamaica and the friendly spirit of the Jamaican people hasn't change a bit.

It is good to see that you come back to 'home' every now and then and in fact, proudly stating you are 'born and bred' Jamaican :-)

Please continue to spread the Jamaican passion across Toronto and Canada. One love sister!

And yes, talk again soon.
