This morning we returned to Grange Hill Upper Top Lincoln Early Childhood Institute and presented them with 2 full suitcases of school supplies. The children sang songs to us and we took pictures with them.
On the way back, Robert shared his home with us. He has added on an addition as he now has his girlfriend and her three children living with him. It looks nice.
We left Robert's house and went into Savannah La Mar to shop. Lori Garber and I went into the pharmacy. A looseleaf notebook costs about $2.00. A 4 sheet pack of Disney "Cars" stickers costs about $2.50; I've seen them in the Dollar Tree for $1.00.
I stopped back into the grocery store to pick up coffee, rum, and snacks for lunches (the little snack packs are cheap here). The Blue Mountain Coffee was $1400.00/pound jays or about $16.49/pound US. It retails at Gloria Jean's coffee shops in the US for $54.99/pound. The rum was about $9.00 US for a bottle- much cheaper than purchasing at either the factory or at the airport.
After the grocery store, we shopped some more at The Craft Market in Negril. I negotiated very reasonable prices for gifts.
Nicole Sankey, Cristin Bauch and I stopped at Camilla's for lunch. She has awesome food at great prices. Lunch was under $5.00 with drink and included stewed brown fish, rice and peas, salad and steamed vegetables.
We then walked to Times Square to do more shopping. When we were out of money, we walked to 23/7 to let John know we would be in on Thursday morning for breakfast (a tradition on our last day). It was really hot today so following our stop we decided to spend some time in the ocean.
Our day was concluded with beachside supper.
Our last day in Jamaica- the warmest so far :)
