I just finished a tiring week of watch in the engine room... I decide that I'd do something different on my off day instead of staying on the ship (which I've been doing lately). So I went with Elanor (Texas) and Fabian (Germany) at 8 am to climb a small mountain, or a big hill in front of the ship. Through brush, cactai, trees and millions of thorns we dug our way up inspired by our thirst for adventure!
At some point we ran out of food provisions and were obliged to eat the sourrounding Aloe Vera plants that grow in abundance here... =)Yet it was well worth the climb! Four hours later we had climbed to the top of a tree and had a breath taking view of Kinston, Jamaica. Coming back down was easier and only took us two hours ripping ourselves to shreds like madmen.
Eventually we made it back to the entrance gate where the kind security personnel notified us that the hill was infested with criminals hiding from the police.. (oh well.)
It is true that Jamaica happens to be the country with the third highest crime rate in the world, yet we haven't seen much of this (which is good).
