Today is are first real work day in Jamaica. The people/Jamaicans are very relaxed. They aren't so much worried about how much work we get done but more how much we get out of the work. The work is very difficult though. It's also very hotttttttt! We have all been drinking a lot of water. It is very beautiful on the work site. Today I did a lot of odd jobs mostly laying blocks though. We had to stop a couple time because of lightning lol but we ended up getting some good work in!! Earlier in the day our foreman Lawrence learned on a wall and it fell down!! Not to scare y'all or anything ;).
The food is amazing!! The sunsets and the scenery are completely gorgeous! Pictures can't even begin to describe. I'm already falling in love. I may not be on the flight back ;). Well its almost time to eat so I'm going to go.
p.s. I would like to give a shout out to my dearest mother(I love you and miss you....you too papa lol) and to my bestest friend ever(you got designer shades just to hide your face :P)
you think you're cooler than me!?;) yeah at the moment you sure are. sounds amazing! i really wish i was there now :( soak up the sun, you're going to be even more tan when you get back. (great)
