We Are Back...

...from Jamaica ^_^ Our trip was very different from what I had anticipated, in a good way.

Aside from being stalked by a few locals, scammed left and right, and chased by dogs that tried to bite us, I assure you we had a terrific time! :)

What we did:
- caught (or rather, paid a local fisherman to catch) live sea urchins from the sea, and devoured the "meat" right on the beach...was awesome
- drove a motorcycle around Negril
- cliff diving...for Zubair, not me, heheh ^_^
- weaned myself off internet (and all technology for that matter!!)
- jet skied
- banana pancakes for breakfast every morning
- local food from Sweet Spice and Three Dives, and various jerk chicken vendors around the country
- relaxed!! We relaxed so much...

...but ahhh, it feels so wonderful, and so very right, to be back here in Manhattan :)

More Jamaica posts to come soon ^_^

Wow, glad you folks had good fun. I was kind of concerned because when I was there many years ago things were kind of "sketch" if you know what I mean.

Looking forward to food pics.

Good to have you back :)
I just found out that there is a new website for posting cooking questions:
http://www.ask2cook.com
Based on the succesful stackexchange infrastructure. The site provides a reputation management system that ensures that good answers to good questions are more visible.
Now it's quite empty, but with time if you'll post in your questions and answers it can be a really great website!
