Jamaica- My Happy Place

Jamaica50 Entry #14 -Jamaica- My Happy Place
It seems only fitting that I spend my 50th Birthday in a Country celebrating it's 50th!!
I have traveled to Jamaica several times throughout my life. I spent my honeymoon in
Negril, shared special time with my family and friends in
Montego Bay and
Ocho Rios and now I am going to Runaway Bay next Month!
My husband and I are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary and my 'significant' birthday there.
I find it a bit challenging to put into words just how wonderful Jamaica is!!
The food is so flavorful and hard to duplicate... Although my family and I pursue this quite a bit!
The people are wonderful... So full of humor and love, in spite if the daily challenges they face.
The music... Which I have an extensive library of now, seems to instantly take me back to this serene, 'feel good' place. I just close my eyes and relive many of the holidays we work so hard to take.
My mother suffered a brain injury several years ago but smiles whenever I recall our vacation together and mimics the
dance moves we shared in Jamaica.
This is so special!
I love your beautiful country and will always keep a special place in my heart where
everything is 'irie'!
Happy Jamaica50th!
