Inauguration day, I wake up around 9:30 so I can watch the feed on Fox News, I started in my room, but later made it up to the Ixtapa Lounge where we set up a projector and screen and about 40 people collected to watch the coverage. It was nice, looks like it was cold there, was it? Haha… I made it on shore to Jamaica today, not bad, not great, but I went for a walk and a tourist trap named Jimmy took me on a tour through “The Plantation” it was a quick tour of a farmers market, a flea market and an art gallery. He then requested $30 for the 15 min we were in contact. I tried $5 and agreed on $10 if he’d take my picture in front of “The Beer Joint” this shit hole bar that he took me passed. He was showing me different spices that were available in the markets.
