Mangoes
One of the things I was glad for on my recent trip to Jamdown (a nickname we call Jamaica) was that it gave me the opportunity to nyam some irie mangoes!
Several Bombay, East Indian and Julie mangoes were devoured and trust me, no quarter was shown to them! Bwoy, I feel like I haven’t had any good mangoes since that beast Hurricane Ivan passed through. Ivan seems to have knocked the mango trees here in Cayman back on their asses, so that I have not seen many on sale, and I have complained elsewhere about the mangoes that are imported from Brazil, Chile and elsewhere… they look good, but looks isn’t everything, trust me!
Above is a picture of a mango tree that I could see from my Mamacita’s verandah. It was tempting me to commit praedial larceny, rasta!
Click on the picture above if you want a better view of all that can be seen from Mom’s verandah nuh?…
