Where do I begin….
My time in Jamaica this month was primarily spent in Kingston. I didn’t really
plan my trip this way but then again I didn’t really plan per se. The majority of the activities I set out to do just did not happen. One of the joys of staying with family! You are always on someone else’s time 🙂
Regardless I did get a chance to visit the Hope Gardens and Hope Zoo. As well as Port Royal.
Let’s talk about the zoo.
The entrance fee is 500 Jamaican dollars. So around $5.37. If you notice the picture above you can see that they are undergoing some renovations. Shouldn’t the price be reduced to let’s say 250?

*Sigh* I wasn’t impressed with the zoo. People whom visited it in the past told me it was great then. Now there are hardly any animals. I honestly only took pictures of birds, lizards and snakes.
BUT it’s currently being renovated SO I hope that it will be great again in the future.

Singapore zoo is now my comparison for every and any zoo I visit. I know…other zoos don’t stand a chance against this beast—>* double sigh*
If you get the opportunity I say visit! It is always a different experience for each individual 🙂
Here are the few pictures I snapped at the zoo.

I had a hard time believing that this alligator was real. It was just chilling…with its mouth agape…no movement AT ALL! One of the grounds keeper was walking by while I gazed at this
ಠ__ಠ–>Dooofus! (my aunts favorite word ha ha)
The end!..not really 🙂
Part 2 this weekend.
Hi Tamara! I wanted to let you know that the links to your navigation menu default to this blog post. I actually tried to complete the contact form to send this message, but it too defaults to this post.
Wow! Thanks for letting me know. I will check that out asap!
I know it’s an old post but I just discovered your blog! The pictures are amazing, it’s a shame it was being renovated while you were there but still looks like a gorgeous place. I don’t think it should have been discounted, it’s pretty cheap already and they clearly need the funds to make it better. Did you feel safe in Kingston? I was born there and my family immigrated to Canada 3 months later. I am hoping to visit soonish.
Awww awesome! Where did you find me? ^_^
I felt safe in Kingston. However, I was never really alone, just with my family. That will be so amazing for you to visit Jamaica. It’s such a beautiful country with a rich history. There is still so much I have yet to explore!
