Entering Jamaica

When I first entered Jamaica my first impression was 'wow', literally wow. The heat took away my longing to talk.  At the airport while we were waiting for Brother Keith, I was baffled at how remarkably beautiful Jamaica is. Brother Keith picked us up and we drove to where we were going to be stay for the duration of our International trip. However, looking back on the drive I noticed that there were no corner stores like I'm used to, or I felt there weren't any local job opportunities for the people, nonetheless they seem very independent. Many Jamaicans have created their own job opportunities and they seem very content with roadside businesses and domestic work. I personally feel good about the experiences I will have in Jamaica.
