Hello all, we are in Jamaica.

We arrived safely! But it was a loooooong day. It started at 3 am Tuesday morning and was busy till 9:30 pm as everyone is getting ready for bed. The day starts tomorrow at 7 am with supper and then off to the work site.
The flight from Minneapolis to Miami was also looong; I seem to be using that word a lot. There was no real turbulence and every one was doing well. We had lunch at the Miami airport and then boarded the flight for Montego Bay, or Mo Bay as they called it on the flight.
We were so glad to pull into our home away from home for two weeks. The high light of the drive from Mo Bay to Brown’s Town was seeing the largest Cruise ship in the world that was in port at Falmouth, the rooms for the passengers was eight stories high and there were more stories than that  and the ship was still way above the water line. Think of a skyscraper in downtown Minneapolis, only bigger.

3 am at Peace

Waiting for the sun and the flight

Finally boarding
It was great to get settled in and have supper with June and Earl Harrison our hosts. Earl is pastor of the Methodist circuit, which includes nine churches, a High School, and a few other pre-schools and elementary schools; he’s a busy guy. June does plants, she does amazing things with plants I’ll put a picture up – but she has a lot of plants around her yard and something like a green house.
