At the end of 2003 I went to visit my sister in florida for 2 weeks. This page 1 of 2 from the captain's log earth date 2003.12.17.10.30.003;
After the flight arrived and by some miracle my 20 year old nephew and I made it outside of the airport terminal, found a phone and called a number. We had nothing to do but stand outside waiting in the cold midday sun. After arriving at the airport in a foreign country it is always a catch 22 situation where chances are you might stay there forever and never be found again. I always have this in my mind which is why I have not been to Japan yet.
The ride came 2 maybe 3 hours later just before I was put on life support. Then we were off though a countless array of intersections, freeways, highways, extended avenues and an endless void of empty streets to our destination.
We stopped at Wendy's and I had the first thing on the menu because I was drawing a map back to the airport. Unfortunately my sense of distance, time and space was messed up because everything looked exactly the same like a lifetime movie. We veered off the highway/street/avenue etc into an apartment complex.
The apartment complex had an electronic gate and ever expanding greenery. After further examination I discovered it was all man-made. You could smell it in the air. The apartments were aligned in groups of six each with perfectly cut grass lawns, little hills and a pond complete with fish, ducks and sprinkler - it was perfect. I think the grass never grew any higher than required - technology is a wonderful thing. Not like in Jamaica where everything is a random natural occurence - if you see a pond chances are it has been there forever - no - florida is like a zoo. Randomness is good, keeps things interesting.
My only problem was the being cold on a sunny day. what the hell is up with that? The sun is shining should it not be hot or at least warm? I spent the rest of the day watching the Matrix reloaded - they did not have cable but had an abundance of rented DVDs and paperback novels. Ridiculous cable rates but I guess that is what you are suppose to be paying.

The Jamaica photo project » New Kingston

I think that is JamRock at the right of the picture.
Jameso commented: Definately the most Modern and beautiful city anywhere in the Caribbean and central America. I have been to many cities in the region and non compares the the beauty of kingston with it's magnificent harbour and very sophisticated buisness district of new kingston, it's a shame though about the crime rate which does not goes down well with the cities image but i believe this is sometimes blown out of proportion. As a born and bread British Citizen kingston is one of the few cities in the Caribbean and Centran america that i would definately Live. How can i forget to mention the magnificent houses and homes that kingston boasts especially those in the hills, i am yet to see homes like thes in Britain. ... read 6 more
