    Love the rain so relaxing and soothing, see if you can send some to old harbour, we have family there and only this morning they were saying that it was so hot and miserable, thoughly enjoyed the drive could hear both of you fine , didn't notice the wiper blades, I noticed that some people were sitting on there verandah enjoying the rain and the refreshing cool that comes for a short relief, thanks again red button team bless up 🦘🇦🇺👍🇯🇲👍🏿

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      We're chuffed to pieces that you enjoyed the drive! The rain is indeed very relaxing, a bit like nature's own lullaby, isn't it? We'd definitely order up a nice, cooling rain shower for Old Harbour if we had Mother Nature's hotline. Glad to know our voices came through clearly amidst the sounds of the journey. You're spot on, there's always something magical about folks enjoying the rain from their verandahs, basking in the respite it brings. Thanks for joining us on this adventure and for supporting the Red Button team. Big up yourself and keep the vibes flowing! 🇦🇺🇯🇲 Blessings!

    I was in Jamaica in march of this year, I mistakenly handed the cashier a $5000, thinking it was a different note, he smiled at me and told me what note it was. They’re truly honest people out there 🥰

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      What an incredible story, thanks for sharing! It's those moments of kindness and honesty that really highlight the beauty of humanity, isn't it? We hope you had a fantastic time in Jamaica, and it's great to hear your experience with the locals was so positive. Stick around with us for more of Jamaica's charm and scenery. Bless up yourself!

    I am enjoying this adventure. I love that the roads have cat eyes. That's an excellent safety feature for night driving. Madge, I just love your comment about the animals that shouldn't be on the roadsides. 😂

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      Glad you're enjoying the adventure! Cat eyes on the roads sure are great for night safety, thanks for noting that. Madge will definitely appreciate your love for her roadside animal comment. Appreciate the love and support, keep journeying with us! Bless up yourself.

      Pure vibes your comment brought, just pure vibes! 😊 Is there anything sweeter than running out to catch falling mangoes in the rain? It’s a quintessential Jamaican experience and indeed a great memory. Tom & Madge absolutely share the same sentiments with you. Bless up yourself! We appreciate your support and hope you'll join us for more rain or shine adventures. 😌🌴🌦️🥭

    The rain in Jamaica is so soothing...when I was there, the whole family would sit on the veranda, watching the rain and just labrish...so therapeutic

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      Right on! It's wonderful to hear that you find the rain in Jamaica soothing just like us. Catching the rain from the veranda with family, sharing stories and good labrish is indeed a serene treat! Glad it brings back such warmth and therapy to you. Stay tuned for more adventures. Bless up yourself!

    I used to love bathing in the rain, but for some reason I itch so badly and it doesn’t happen when I used the chlorinated tap water. It was so bad I used to use the destroyer stand to scratch 🤦🏽‍♀️anyway, that didn’t stop me from going to mango bush to pick up mangoes that fell off the tree, thanks to heavy rain; man I loved those days

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      Ah, there's nothing quite like a rain soaked mango freshly plucked! Sorry to hear about the itchy rain baths, though. Odd, isn't it? The mystery of nature maybe. Still, it's great that you didn't let it dampen your mango adventures. Thanks for sharing your memories with us, it's always good hearing from you! Big up yourself and stay blessed!

    That area being done over and over is being done by a local contractor called Smiths Asphlating who is one of the only three existing out of the ten original local contractors.....they took over that area from another contractor and they are pretty good so i dont understand why they are having such a hard time getting it done....

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      Big up for the insightful info! You seem to know a lot about local contracting scenes. It's indeed interesting to wonder why Smiths Asphalting is struggling with the area, considering their reputation. It might be due to many underlying factors. Thanks for your perspective! And keep tuning in for more adventures. Bless up yourself!

    @gloriaward2009 5 месяцев назад +3

    This is just teasing me. 😅😅 Believe it or not I still use my cup to catch the rain water and drink it when I am there. It reminds me of my childhood days. Nothing like listening to the rain falling on the top of the zinc, boy oh boy that thing is so soothing. Thanks again to both of you lovely couples for always making my day watching from NY. Tom is very impressive to see you handle that steering wheel in Ja. I only drive there a couple times. Scary 😨😱 Beautiful Madge you both continue to enjoy life. Country scenery is always great 👍🏽

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад +1

      We're delighted that our video took you down memory lane, and appreciate your tales of rainwater refreshments and zinc rooftop lullabies. It's these shared experiences that make our journey most special. Tom is also grinning from cheek to cheek, feeling proud of his steering wheel skills. It's fantastic knowing our videos brighten your day all the way in NY. Indeed, the country scenery never ceases to amaze us. Continue to enjoy it with us, and bless up yourself!

    Hello friends ❤❤! Madge, you look beautiful in your Dashiki outfit ❤. Beautiful, rainy day. It's therapeutic to listen to rain. I used to bathe in the rain as a child.😊😅. The only disadvantage of so much rain in Jamaica is flooding because of digging up and dirt dumping 😮. Wow! I can't swim so stay away from places that are flooding 😅. Stay safe and cook some red pea soup. Delicious for rainy days 😂.

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад +1

      Greetings! Bless up for your kind words and insights. Madge certainly appreciates your compliment on her Dashiki outfit. The sound of rain does indeed have a therapeutic effect, doesn't it? You brought up a valid point about the flooding issue in Jamaica; we gotta love and care for our land. Tom and Madge are wary of flooded areas, so nothing to worry about! We appreciate your concern, and the idea of cooking red pea soup in this weather sounds divine! Stay tuned for more adventures, and stay blessed - maybe we'll share some soup next time! 🍲 Bless up yourself and keep watching!

    Even up in Canada, U.S. neighbor, they did not take the U.S. currency from me. You have to go to an exchange place for that. I believe at the U.S./Canada border (Buffalo) they will take the Can/American monies.

    We can't blame the ruling party for poor road conditions. Remember, this government took power with some terrible road conditions to go with it. Everyone thinks that government must wave a wand and fix roads that were never done properly (if at all) by the former government.

    The contractors come from both political parties. Our local contractors failed us overall. Hence, PM said no local contractor will be working from prospect to portland and I think it will be done in 2 years

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад +1

      Respect for participating in the discussion about our local contractors and the impact they've had on our road situation. The way in which politics, infrastructure, and community intersect is not a simple topic. Two years is a bold estimate, and we’re hoping it pans out in real life. Keep tuning in to share your insights and journey with us! Big up yourself!

    @happy2bnappy575 5 месяцев назад +2

    I don’t think it’s a silly question. I am trying to understand the currency and I’m struggling with how much the U.S. dollar is to the Jamaican dollar. Also I was told not to convert all my US money over to Jamaican dollars. Then there is my accent. Even if I have Jamaican dollars, once they hear my US accent, I’m not going to be charged what the locals are charged. I saw you telling someone you live in Jamaica and charge you the same as you charge the locals. In the U.S. you are not going to charge a foreigner a different price than a local, just because they are not from the U.S.

    • @RedButtonJournal
      @RedButtonJournal  5 месяцев назад

      Walk good, thanks for your detailed comment. Figuring out foreign currency can be tricky, and it's absolutely fine to ask for help! Right now, the rate fluctuates, but is about 150 JMD to 1 USD. Yes, it's advisable not to convert all your money at once due to the fluctuating exchange rates. As for pricing, we can't speak for all, but most businesses here in Jamaica, just like in the U.S., don't discriminate on the basis of accents or nationality. Hopefully, your experience will reflect this. Just be on your toes for individuals at market or roadside for ‘foreigner prices’. Big up yourself!

      Having a full understanding of what is taking place with road works in your area is important.
      Politicians don't handle money.
