Jamaica

Way back in February, while Shuma and I were visiting my family in Canada, we took a trip to Jamaica. We went with my parents, who go to Negril every year year, and were joined by various family members and friends, but mostly in these pictures you'll see Shuma. And it's mostly just pictures, I have to hurry up and finally get this posted because in a few days I'll be back in Canada. "You're going back again? You just went!" is what almost every Japanese person says when I tell them. Well, 9 months is actually not that recent but yes, I'm very luck to be going back twice in one year.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's go back to February: here is Shuma all bundled up on the way to the airport.

And here he is on the beach!

With cousin Zoe.

Destroying sandcastles.

On a visit to YS Falls. This tractor was the highlight of the day for Shuma.

With buddy Josh.

And a feathered buddy.

And a friendly buddy.

And a not-so-friendly buddy.

And Baboo (my dad).

Actually making a sandcastle for once.

And at the airport on the way home.

More pictures here.
