yep, this is the route we'll take driving from strawberry hill to boston bay!Originally Posted by johng
so, same route you describe, but the opposite way.
i'm going to ask for warren to take us the coastal route back to kingston, so my husband and son can get a gander at morant bay, etc. i also want to stop at cane river falls!
this is the kind of food i love.
we cook like this at home a lot (more so when we were living full-time in port au prince, but we do okay in brooklyn) and i'm hoping to stumble across some good ital while i'm out and about somewhere between hollywell park and boston bay.

and herbs! i always try to learn a little bit more every time i'm in ja and haiti.
i'm a'ight as an herbalist, but my husband is really, really good.
mwenvlay, on your trip from Strawberry Hill to Port Antonio ask your driver to stop at Holywell Park. It is located at the very top of Hardware Gap right before you head down the mountain. It is a botanical garden and is a nice place to stop on the ride. You will love the ride. It will be one of the favorite things you have done in Jamaica!!

definitely!
this is the first time i've ever taken this particular ride (kingston to port antonio area) utilizing a private car.
i'm so excited!!!!!

as i mentioned earlier in this thread, we're staying at great huts.
we booked the fig tree house, which is attached to the royal lounge. apparently, when they shut that area down for the night, we have sole access to it which sounds cool in theory, but we'll see how that actually pans out- i don't think any of the rooms have locks on them, so i'm not sure how they secure the lounge area after hours. i guess we'll find out.
start at 2:10 to see a tour of the lounge and fig tree house.
it has a queen bed on the upper floor (for me n husband) and a rough-hewn bunk bed on the lower floor (for our ti boss son). it also has a nice porch area on the top floor and a crazy, canoe shaped bathtub on the bottom floor, both directly overlooking boston bay.
should be interesting!
this video shows the cliff pool.

port antonio has a fish sanctuary and coral restoration site.
i'd like to spend some time hanging at the rio grande, but don't really want to do rafting. looking to do what this lady and her family/friends did.
