I'm on holidays! Not a computer nor a phone in sight. Technology has been left behind in this beautifully slow paced country.
I haven't written anything since I got here even tho there has been plenty to inspire me.
But this morning I couldn't help myself....
I'm sitting having breakfast in the Ritz Hotel in Montego Bay. A breakfast of fruit (so far) looking out past the beautifully landscaped garden, past the very still and inviting swimming pool, past the golden undisturbed (so far) sandy beach, looking right out at the blue/green calm sea with a few white tips.
I can see the sea through very tall palm trees moving ever so gently in the breeze thats coming in from the ocean, and they are framed by the brightest blue sky without one single cloud. I can see the horizon. I know you are out there somewhere way past that!!
But that's not what made me want to write.
So back to my breakfast...not sure what to have next...so, not only am I having a feast and enjoying beautiful scenery...I'm being serenaded!!
Yes, serenaded, by a very handsome waiter with the brightest smile and a battered guitar, singing very gentle Jamaican music ( with a few 'classics' thrown in). Oh the romance of it all...
I might have some pancakes next, I'm staying here forever.
A bowl of porridge in my kitchen in Old Bawn seems very far away....
