Cabin in the Woods: Smoky Mountains 2013

Hey everyone! These are just some pictures I took in the Smoky Mountains this summer. Even though it was pretty rainy most of the time, we did get a few days of sun which made our vacation totally worth it!

Blue Horizon

When I think about Jamaica,
the most memorable thing is the mountain range.
From anywhere on the island,
the magnificent mountains come out to greet me.
There are so many trees here!
It's so green and awesome wherever we go;
a far cry from the dry, flat land of Florida.

The mountain range that runs through Kingston (pictured above)
is called the Blue Mountain Range.
Blue Mountain Peak is the highest point on the island.
I didn't go up there this time around but it's cool (jacket recommended!)
and a lovely place to hike. Up in those mountains
is where they grow some of the best coffee in the world. 
(Jamaican people can never have enough coffee lol)
