JA fluff feature story - CardBoardBox - 03-10-2023
Encountering Another Jamaica
A writer explores the island beyond its popular all-inclusive resorts, seeking out guesthouses owned by locals, and experiences beyond the beaches. She finds mountain views, cascading waterfalls and a sense of place.
The above is the start of a tourist article published by the NY Times, Austrailia divison.
Treasure beach and 2 other places are visited.
If the link does not work, I can "gift" 10 people. Has color photos of places (some) including the bar in the water in TB

I'd love to read this but I have to give my email out 1st and that's not happening . Thanks anyway .
RE: JA fluff feature story - CardBoardBox - 03-10-2023
So we will assume the link did not function. Okay. Do you see the site address is a com and not a net? Remember that fact.
I will also assume that you know how to cut-n-paste and modify a few characters in the string.
Let me try something DToT ....
RE: JA fluff feature story - oldtimer - 03-11-2023
In reality I can barely turn the computer on . The few times I do cut and paste it is probably a shear accident that I actually get it done . Now if you want me to fix a boat or get you back safe in a storm I can give 'er a really good chance at being safe , stupid but safe .
RE: JA fluff feature story - CardBoardBox - 03-11-2023
Appreciate you being honest. Some things are very complicated for everyone.
With no change required, and hopefully no one else will click on the link since it can only be used one time, DTot, try this
-link was used by someone. I just removed it. I can still 'gift' another.
RE: JA fluff feature story - CardBoardBox - 03-11-2023
there are 75 comments in there. I did not read them
RE: JA fluff feature story - oldtimer - 03-12-2023
It's nothing but ads ????
RE: JA fluff feature story - CardBoardBox - 03-12-2023
Did you see one page display of asking you to subscribe? If that be the case, some bastard clicked on the link already.
There are so few whom visit here. Why would they be so disrespectful / selfish?
Hey, I tried.
It really is story. Since I gifted it, it should not be a copyright issue if I move it here
BUT WHEN?
A robot scans this sight daily, around 5 PM, so from Monday evening to Tuesday afternoon, come here and look again, OK?
For the below, move your mouse over a link, push the right mouse button and click on "Open in new tab". Once for each line. Let me know if the photos appeared.

---text snipit from the story below---
Our trip began with a long journey from Montego Bay’s Sangster International Airport to Kingston on the Knutsford Express (a Greyhound-equivalent bus) and then a taxi up and across the Blue Mountains, high above the capital, to stay at the BlueMountView guesthouse.
We arrived at night after a treacherous drive. But we woke the next morning to the chirping of insects and a stunning sight: The guest rooms, made with an abundance of polished natural wood, are surrounded by trees, and built into the edge of a great crevasse, looking out over a plunging swathe of greenery.
