Garfield and Chris in the mountains |
Our second inland trip with Garfield was to the Blue
Mountains. His friend Tyrone drove us around, dropping us off at trail heads
and picking us up at the other end. We started off heading west on the coast road,
then turned south into the mountains. We hiked through a coffee plantation, we
ate grapefruit off the tree, we hiked in a cloud forest at the Blue and John
Crow Mountains National Park, a World Heritage Site, we stopped at a coffee
shop for a cup and a pound of freshly ground (by Garfield) coffee. We saw
beautiful flowers, waterfalls, rolling hills and steep mountains, Kingston on
the south coast, and one really cool spider. It was a full and fun day.

Nice drive along the coast before turning inland toward the mountains |

Across the bridge to the voodoo priest - we deferred |

Bikes carted uphill so tourists can ride them downhill |
|
Beautiful flowers of the coffee plant |

That's Kingston on the south coast in the distance |
|
Lovely, but I have no idea what kind of plant it is |
|
Only wind-up hikers are allowed here |

Great spider! |

This road's not big enough for the two of us |
