It's around Xmas, and I am in a bedroom, with all the windows open, and I'm sweating!
That's because we went to see my in-laws in Jamaica. Not that Bermuda is not nice in the winter, just a little damp. But the temperatures in Jamaica are far FAR better... I mean 30C!
And SUNSHINE that makes you feel like summer.
Besides the obvious temperature advantages, there's the food. Because in Bermuda there is virtually no agriculture, except golf--those flags in the wholes are not really crops, so really this doesn't even count. And so everything is coming over to Bermuda in a container.
Not so in Jamaica. Although global trade etc. have messed up some of Jamaica's supply lines (importing cheaper milk powder from the US, instead of milking Jamaican cows, e.g.) you cannot beat a fresh breadfruit, or a coconut from the tree in the backyard, expertly chopped so you can drink the water!!!!!
And then there is the driving experience. In Bermuda it's 35 kmh. In JA, well....
It's quite fun driving a car here. It's all a bit more spontaneous than in BDA, Germany, or the UK (exc. maybe London) :-) just gotta look out for the potholes!
So Merry Christmas, a blessed New Year, from sunny Jamaica.
