Sorry for the late reply, please see the pic below. All gas stations are FULL SERVE, you cannot pump your own gas anywhere.

This thread is a major disappointment. All I see are cars. Where are the hotties? Couldn't you snap some photos of women (with a car or two in the background)?

Don't think the Fiance would like that especially on her hometurf.

I did catch this poster at a place we got some great jerk chicken/pork.....and needless to say I will be buying that rum...good advertising.

Nice pics.

Having an IS-F over there seems like a waste as the roads are sooooo bad. Outside of MoBay, Highway 2000, and a few other places, the roads are absolutely horrid. In some areas the asphalt looks like it was picked off the road like a scab leaving gaping open wounds that they try to fill with gravel. Unfortunately that only lasts a couple of rain storms before it washes out. The only things worth driving over there are Prados, Pajeros, F-150's etc...

All fruits ripe... ha ha Cool pics and great thread. Reminds me of my trip there years ago. It was one of my BEST vacations and the BEST way to visit the island; live with a family from there that doesn't mind taking you everywhere so you get a REAL feel for the island.
We did everything from Morant Bay to Kingston, to Montego Bay, to Ocho Rios (Dunn's River Falls and Reggae beach) etc., etc., etc.
The food, hospitality, (and rum bars...ha ha) were second to none. This has me thinking of some bread pudding and rum raisin ice cream right about now.
