    Re: Face your addiction! OR "Why do YOU love - and keep coming back to - Jamaica!"?

    Oh my G G G G God it is still so cold here, and the snow!!!!! I thought when we were planning our trip last year to do Negril in March it was so late and we would probably have nice weather here already, but nooooooo. When we were flying into Manitoba on March 23rd I thought the pilot overshot Manitoba and we were in Nunavut with all the snow still on the ground! Yikes......makes planning next year very easy!

    ....and I also miss

    The roosters who don't know what time it is!
    Walking on the beach at 7 a.m. with a bottle of water for the walk back, but a coffe and Rum cream for the walk there, which is nowhere in particular!
    Getting schooled in Dominos by Campbell
    Waking up hung over and walking out the door of our villa and diving into the Caribbean Sea....snow banks don't work so well!
    The FABULOUS people at SeaSand Ecovillas who made us feel so welcome this year!
    The ever interesting conversations with every taxi driver we met!
    Pumpkin Soup
    Fresh Grilled Lobster
    Fresh squeezed orange juice
    Chillin in the West End...

    Just to name a few more....

    Yea mon, what an honour to be mentioned as and addictive reason to come to Jamaica--Sense of community-St. Anthony's! Tanks! For those who don't know us--St. Anthony's Kitchen serves about 150 lunches to the poor in town, provides 40 breakfasts to children on the way to school (and runs a school bus), sponsors 36 children to school and, well you get the idea. We only do it with the help of others; the local Rotary Club are wonderful friends, volunteers, and lots of benefactors. Perhaps you could become addicted to sponsoring a kid to school or providing a bag a peas a month (darn things cost USD$100 now), a school backpack, clothes--just about anything. St. Paul exhorts his flock, "God loves a cheerful giver!" Ya gott love the guy, especially if you are into asking folks for stuff all the time! --Fr. Jim
