Irie!!!
.
Party Prince Harry danced his socks off in blue suede shoes during his royal visit to Jamaica.
.
The prince was visiting Kingston when he was pulled to his feet by attractive
Chantol Dormer.
.
The 27-year-old royal proved that his rhythm was on par with jammin’ style as he boogey-down to a rendition of reggae legend Bob Marley’s “One Love”.
.
That night Harry attended a black tie state dinner with Prime Minister
Mrs Portia Simpson.
.
In a well-received speech the prince had his audience eating out of his hand with a few jokes in the local patois.
.
He said: ‘I count it a great privilege to be standing here tonight, representing The Queen in Jamaica on her Diamond Jubilee. Her Majesty has asked me to extend her great good wishes to you all, and is sorry that she can’t be here - so you’re stuck with me… but don’t worry, cos every liddle ting gonna be aright! ‘
.
‘Your vibrancy and vigour, your wonderful welcome to visitors and your island’s natural beauties - all combine to make Jamaica unique. The Queen recognised this.

“Solace at Sunset”
By Bob Perks
.
Life appears empty sometimes. Times like losing
a job, ending a marriage, loss of a loved one, or
financial collapse.
.
All endings. I guess that’s it. Things that end remain
empty and hard to fill, replace or let go.
.
Then how do you explain sunsets?
.
It is indeed an end to something or many things. The
day ends, the celebration concludes, the band stops
playing, the dance is over, the lights go out and we
“call it a day.”
.
Seems empty to me.
.
Why then do we love sunsets?
.
It seems to go so fast when you don’t want the day
to end and much too slow when you can’t wait for it
to be over.
.
My curiosity asked “How long is a sunset?”
My searching found this answer. Rather factual,

Enter the elegantly rustic, jewel-like lobby and immediately come face to face with a beach so magnificent it takes your breath away. A half mile of pearl-white sand arching in a perfect crescent, kissed by translucent turquoise water-the spectacular sight of the undulating aquamarine sea greets you from every corner of Sandals Negril in Jamaica. The lushness of the gardens, the staff’s easygoing warmth and the ever-present, soothing sound of surf - you’ll find time slipping away as you become one with the carefree Negril state of mind.

Sea, Sun and Sand — on the North Coast, Jamaica

We catch up on our nomadic islanders after breakfast. The sun is up and the glare off the white sand beach is intense, even in the morning! Colleen and Cecile are walking off the morning’s gastronomical indulgences with Mario and Brian not far behind.
..
So we got our significant others and made for the beach. We had a ball!
