Galleon Beach, St. Elizabeth
Has Galleon Beach become the forgotten beach?
There was a time when it was the favourite of many.

Montego Bay, Jamaica
Rose Hall Great House
The home of Anne Palmer! You must hear the legend, plus the property is spectacular to walk with an awesome view.
Evelyn's Restaurant
Great spot along Whitehouse Road to have your last Jamaican meal, before taking your flight. It's located on the road to Sandals, Mobay. Be sure to specify how you want your Roti!

Hustle and Bustle of Santa Cruz, St Elizabeth
Santa Cruz, my home town is nothing like when I was growing up.
Gone are the days when everyone knew each other and their family history. Instead I see many new faces and businesses. Most of the old all gone. So when I ask about the "shoemaker next to Bata", everyone looks at me strangely. They ask,"Where is Bata? You mean the shoemaker near L.C Stationery? "
Then most of the stalwarts were either migrated, dead or barely remembered you or your name. Others had an empty look on their faces as if to say, "yeah we are still here...what fi do..."
Who are the new leaders?
Then when I drive around town and I see new lawyers, doctors, pharmacists, business people and no one seem to know from whence they came ...I'm left wondering....
Santa Cruz has many talented people who are making significant contibutions to other communities locally and abroad. Yet for one reason or another, a decision was made not to invest in the community directly.
I look at the the numerous businesses and yet I wonder about their viability.
I wonder about "town planning" and the organisation of the community.
One thing remains the same ....."it hot, nuh hell!"
I drove through Santa Cruz last weekend and I'm left .........thinking........wondering.....
