Let me know if these are too large. I don't know what the size limits are for posting pictures.

Nice picture and the size is fine. I think you can go up to around 1000 pixels wide but don't quote me.

Nice photos, I love the palm tree one!

Is the pirate castle an attraction or a hotel of sorts?

It's a guesthouse in Robin's Bay, St. Mary's on the North coast, called River Lodge. It's really out there. Some of the road going in isn't exactly paved. Needless to say, it isn't swamped with tourists. If you decide to stay there, I strongly suggest booking it with Lydia and having her take you there. I couldn't even begin to explain how to get there. The place is incredibly beautiful.

I vote for having the next JAB reunion in the Blue Mtns!*

*Even though Wahoo's scared of heights. He has a hard enough time not falling down on level ground. :-P

That one was taken by Sheldon, the guide. He guided both of us, AND took really great photos. Really talented guy. I didn't even fall once, he knew where every single rock was in that river.

Rose, once we got through the traffic coming out of Kingston, it turned into a beautiful drive and didn't seem like it took that long at all. Well worth the drive.
Hope you go there soon. The temperatures were a lot cooler up there. A hreat place to escape the heat in summer :)
