The newest video from Alkaline has drawn a lot of attention, including from the JCF Commissioner (have not verified this).

Apparently Kim Kardashian (or her Jamaican nanny) attempted to make Jamaican food. Or, as Jamaicans would say, a meal (food is boiled ground provisions in Jamaica.)

Check out some of the hilarious reactions here.

I had heard about this several months ago when a student of mine was robbed at gunpoint. I wonder what the authorities are doing to crack down, if it is taking so long to put out a release. I know they spent a few weeks stopping taxis on the side of the road, but how do you find those who are disguised? It seems the onus is on the passengers to stay safe…

Heading to work for the day.

It is graduation season and school concert season. This is the preparation for my daughter’s year end concert. It was lovely.

The British actor Idris Elba is in Kingston shooting a film called Yardie, based on a Victor Headley novel about a young man who arrives in London with a kilo of cocaine.

A peaceful sunset on a hectic day.

We went walking along the glorious Rideau Canal, with my daughter saying “Hi water,” the whole way.

We fed the birds on the banks of the Rideau River today. It was lovely, although they got a little bit too rowdy for a toddler’s liking.

We are doing lots of walking in parks. They are so well-maintained, and this sign even outlines “park etiquette.”
