That in 1930 a black king named Tafari Makonnen (Ras Tafari) was crowned in Ethiopia?
That mannish water is a soup of goat meat and vegetables?
That the Peter Tosh Monument is located in Belmont, Westmoreland?
That the sun in Jamaica is very hot and strong, even when it is cloudy?
That Jamaica's tourist season is from mid-December till mid-April?



In September 1988 a hurricane of extremely strength hit the island of Jamaica. In the eye of Gilbert a historical pressure of 885 millibar was recorded, just at the moment the hurricane reached Jamaica. 45 people died and more than 500.000 people were homeless. Tourism and the agricultural sector were seriously hurt.
Even today a lot of people still remember Gilbert as it was yesterday.
