Hey !
Happy Sunday to you and yours again my friend!
Oh yeah I have that video for you, but just before, I'd like to direct you to our response post to another popular question we get from our friends in the north...
"Can I Have Dual Citizenship In The US And Jamaica?"
The short answer is still Yes, but Isreal did a fantastic job explaining the situations, conditions and process.
Be sure to read and share with someone you think might be interested.
And now our..
In this special video, I share live highlights from my recent (but rather scary) Crab Hunting In Jamaica adventure.
It was an amazing experience learning how to catch land crabs from the experts in the morass (by the sea) but more so, catching crabs myself!
Enjoy the adventure!
Please be sure to share a comment. And if you like it, please share it with someone, the more the merrier.
Featured Jamaican Product
Jamaica is known for exporting a lot of fine produces, and one of its biggest and best is Jamaican Rum.
But the crème de la crème of Jamaican rums is the Jamaican Rum Cream - one of the best been Sangster's Rum Cream.
This savoury liqueur is a favourite both locally and internationally.
Sangster’s Rum Cream was introduced to the world in 1983 and has since captured the world as the best Rum Cream in the Caribbean and enjoyed worldwide.
The Sangster’s Rum Cream has won for itself the Monde Quality Selection Gold Medal in 2004 and has continued to win prizes and awards worldwide.
I want to use the medium again to BIG up Mexican and the boys that made the Crab Hunting video possible.
The truth is that Mexican (we call him), although quite nifty and skill at what he does, has just recently recuperated from a series of illnesses, but was more than ready to make the Crab hunting trip possible - a really tough cookie!
So to him and the men, thanks again family!
Did you know...
... that Jamaicans first spoke to their relatives overseas, US, UK, Canada, Mexico and Cuba in particular in 1936?
This came as a result of the inauguration of the radio-telephone service.
This too, is yet another interesting fact from my 101 Intriguing Facts About Jamaica book.
The new Harmony Beach Park, formerly the Closed Harbour Beach Park in Montego Bay, is now officially opened (though with some restrictions).
A virtual opening ceremony was held on Friday, May 21 with Prime Minister, the Most Hon. Andrew Holness, delivering the keynote address.
It is expected to give rise to tourism entrepreneurship in the resort capital as it will attract significant number of both local and international tourists who will visit to enjoy its features.
And that's it for today my friend, remember, please continue to stay #SafeAndSane.
