Pretty sad I think. I think he is missing the key point. We come to Jamaica to be with the people, to live with them, relax with them, enjoy the music, enjoy a snippet of what it is to live Jamaican. All the big chains offering top notch amenities can't offer the most special thing, living with the Jamaican people, not just "visiting" Jamaica. The travelling masses will never understand. Those of us who have experienced the privilege these people have afforded us to come and live with them, it's so hard for me to put it into words, how grateful I am to have met them and have them open their hearts and homes to us. On one of my first trips I overheard a man referring to the old road as the as*hole filter. Well to some degree that was probably true. So now it's more complex. maybe we need to keep this relationship ongoing by advocating being with the Jamaican people instead of just visiting the country, I know I do it every chance I get. In future days Rob this board of yours may play an even more important part than your initial dream encompassed. It may end up being the last link to the way it was and a guide to those who have heard about living with the people and wanting to learn how. You should be proud, what a great idea, and look at how much your hard work has accomplished. Enclosed in all the blogs on your board, in the back ground, is the message. Anyone who spends anytime here will eventually hear it. But you won't hear it at any of the grand resorts. OK, my rants over.
