Here is a photo of the Ital Garden. We had some fresh beet and cucumber juice and Mr. T insisted I try "Sip". I had never heard of that before but Mr. T said it is a soup made without bones? Well it was amazing. Oh so fresh. Funny how when you learn a new word, you start seeing or hearing it all the time.

So we met Mr. T on our last trip. We also met a lot of other people that were going to be "life long friends" and that we'd "share future adventures" with. But when I met Mr. T the first time, I knew he was a unique and trustworthy person and that we would become life long friends. I would have liked to feel the same about everyone I met. But that is just not possible because we all understand how to read people, I hope. We stayed on the beach all night, almost until sunrise talking on my first visit. And our driver was picking us up really soon after that sunrise to get to the airport. Maybe I am naive, and I likely am, but I met a lot of people in my two trips to JA that want to get out of there; particularly men. Or maybe it's just that I form a better relationship with men, who knows. It's strange that people I met living there want to get out and so many of us that visit think we would be more than happy to stay a lifetime.

Mt. T expressed his desire to move out of JA. We have talked very open and often about this. But after visiting Mr. T in JA I don't see how he would be comfortable leaving what he has. But maybe I am wrong and would certainly support and assist that decision should he ever decide to make it in anyway possible. Okay enough of the psycho analysis.
So after an hour or so walk, we finally reached Mr. T's family land. This is my first true taste of how he lives life daily there. Prior to this I wore blindfolds.

So we went to town in search of shrimp but didn't find any worthy. We decided to head to the West End. We walked. That was a pretty scary walk going around the blind corners with no side walk. Mr. T wanted to show us the first place he played basketball and introduce us to his friend that had an Ital restaurant. Well this ended up being the MXIII property where I believe the Bob Marley Birthday Bash was held. It was really special to see Mr. T's face light up when he was describing how he learned to play ball there.

So after our Sip, Mr. T asked us if we'd like to visit his home. We were surprised and weren't expecting this privilege at this moment though we had talked about visiting his home at one point on our trip. In fact at this point I didn't know that Mr. T lived within a reasonable walking distance from where we were. I asked if we were close enough to walk and he said yes but that became debatable. We walked and walked. and walked some more.

I was feeling really happy that it wasn't as hot as the last time I was in JA.
