[@littlemanscorner1718]

Thanks for letting take the ride with you. Years ago I passed through Bluefield and visited Peter Tosh's mausoleum. Nice to stop in and take a rest on the way to black river

[@Jamaicabless]

Yes, indeed. I visited Peter Tosh's place with a group a few years ago. Nice road trip.

[@larrysmith3102]

Love this lady her expression is so respectful both may l say

[@jojoyah_1236]

What a beautiful place by the river. The river is so clean. We have kept our island natural, pure, and clean. The outsiders want to come and pollute it like they did to their lands.

Devils agents - they are.

I am from st. Elizabeth and I've never heard of this place, beautiful scenery

[@Jamaicabless]

It is a wonderful place. Hidden gem.

[@eileenwatt8283]

​@@Jamaicablessif you thought that road was scary take a trip to Epping Farm in St. Thomas. Go from Mavis Banks side. You must drive an SUV up there. It's beautiful with lush greenery and rain falls there everyday but be 🙂 forewarned don't look left or right.

[@luckysinclair7327]

It's in NORTH West St Elizabeth like you going to mobay

[@jojoyah_1236]

I would like more CULTURE and HISTORY. We need this. Your video speaks about COVID. That was 4 years ago.

[@Jamaicabless]

This content was hidden in another channel. My focus now is Jamaica.

[@jojoyah_1236]

Why are we STUCK on TOURISM/TOURISTS? Why can't we come up with industries to sustain ourselves, and sustain our beautiful, NATURAL island.

[@eileenwatt8283]

Industries destroys the environment and causes all kind of auto immune diseases.

[@rudeboylexy]

Also what a beautiful and loving couple

[@Jamaicabless]

We should all aspire to live like them.

[@expatlifestyle6069]

First time watching your channel and I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

[@Jamaicabless]

Welcome aboard!

[@Mushroom-z6f]

I have just came upon your channel and immediately I subscribed 😂 loving my jamaica bad 😊

[@Jamaicabless]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate your feedback. My daughter has been telling me for years to do this.

[@jojoyah_1236]

Jamaicans need to update/fix-up/modernize their businesses so that they are attractive and inviting. This way the outsiders will have less reason to want to take it over or tear it down and build up their mega all-inclusive hotels.

[@johncena61991]

I would love to to meet this lovely couple i'm a 3rd generation of vassell

[@Jamaicabless]

You should try to connect. Wonderful people.

[@MarjorieMartin-f7t]

You are right they are referred to as alligators, but they are crocodiles also found in St. Catherine. Alligators have the wide broader mouth , crocs a longer narrow mouth.

[@Jamaicabless]

Thanks, we on a learning journey together.

[@kohane35]

True facts the great harry Bellafonte grow up in cataboo

[@Jamaicabless]

I am almost sure he was born in NY to Jamaican parents. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Belafonte

[@luckysinclair7327]

Thosw waters are most likely to have crocodiles i wll not go into any river water in the north east and north west of St Elizabeth.

[@Jamaicabless]

You will be safe. I like the sea, no river water for me.

[@Mushroom-z6f]

Good day I lived on st Elizabeth in my younger years , lacovia to be exactly and I never heard of cataboo before, where exactly is it located ?

[@Jamaicabless]

I also lived in St. Elizabeth for three years. Had no clue about this place. I would say it is about five or so miles from Black River, the town area.

[@ellihall2266]

Wow, 😳 a Cannabis production factory in Jamaica.😁🤔🤔🇯🇲😂

[@Jamaicabless]

Yes, but the industry has a lot of restrictions. Mainly external influence.

[@eileenwatt8283]

Driver's ed should be taught in high school with stimulation driving using a map of roads in Jamaica. After Driver's ed real driving should takes place on the roads.

[@amoyagilli804]

I AM FROM ST ELIZABETH NEVER HEAR OR KN ABOUT THIS PLACE...

[@Jamaicabless]

It is a hidden gem.

[@cynthialinton3664]

Cataboo is close to Slipe

[@cynthialinton3664]

Jamaica have alligator in St Elizabeth and Trelawney

[@KingKong-dp2he]

No we don't unless it's in a zoo but not in the wild

[@dawnallchambers1528]

They look alike are they related look like twin

[@Tropicaya]

I said the same thing.

[@jojoyah_1236]

Jamaica/Jamaican Schools/Jamaican society are NOT TEACHING Jamaican history. There is so much history and it's being neglected, OVERLOOKED, and SUPPRESSED.

[@Jamaicabless]

Please give me a few ideas. I will explore them.

[@luckysinclair7327]

It's about you now YTber s get it correct all those places were long exits before those invaders come into our country..Yet you all keep giving us pseudo history and claiming it's our history. Those areas existed from the Tainos days as a matter of fact most people don't even know that the Tainos were plentiful in St Elizabeth.

[@Jamaicabless]

Join us on this quest of knowledge-sharing! History is not just about facts; it's about the stories we tell and how they transcend time. Your perspective is invaluable in enriching our understanding. Share what you know and be part of the narrative! We want your perspective too.

[@luckysinclair7327]

@@Jamaicabless It's no wonder we continue with the lies that told so much that it stuck. If you are not interested in facts only what transcend in time, what "the lies". Then how can we keep talking about preserving the his of our real people.

[@KingKong-dp2he]

Sorry but that alligator story is not accurate because their are no alligators in Jamaica unless it's in a zoo furthermore America and China are the only places on earth where alligators are found in the wild

[@drewski1441]

No Alligators in Jamaica only Crocodiles. Jamaica has some big ones in Black River St Elizabeth. Crocs are also in Milk river Clarendon and Portmore st Catherine.

[@Jamaicabless]

I am still learning the difference.

[@MarjorieMartin-f7t]

The alligator has a broad mouth. THE crocs the longer narrower mouth.

[@prince-cl2im]

So true only crocodiles found there
