Yardies, at home and a farrin' (Part 5)

[Forever Young 1]

Ok guys! After being so excited about seeing my check cashed SAturday I got my hard copy NOA1 today. I am receipted for january the 17. Problem: I tried to check my case status and it said "case status failed" or something like that. Basically I guess I am not in the system...now what?????????????

Sheesh! Is anything with this EVER easy?!

Don't worry Shrewdie...sometimes it does take them a little while to update the system. Give it til Monday 10-11 days...if nothing then... call USCIS and ask why your number is not registering.

Oh, SG.....forgot I wanted to say that mine didn't show up in the system for the longest time. Everytime I would call to inquire they would feed me some line that they could see it in the system, it just wasn't registering so I could see it. Have no fear, it's on it's way............

So I am bored and in a pissy mood so I decide to get a bit of a JA fix and come across this site that has JA reviews...well it just made me in an even more pissy mood.

There was only a handful of "ok" posts in amongst numerous posts like this...so sad that this is what people really think and experience - and these are just the recent ones.

I was in Jamaica last year on a cruise. This is a very sad country. We traveled from Montego Bay to Negril and saw how the locals live. We also talked with our tour guide and she told us there are not enough jobs for the people that live there. We spent the day at Margaritaville and had a guard watching us the whole time. I am glad I was there but I would never want to return.

We had a group of seven people who went to Jamaica last year. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Sunspree in Montego Bay and did day trips out to other areas. I would not recommend leaving the hotel security unless you had a guide. It would be unsafe. We left the gated hotel area and ventured across the street to shop. I would never do that again. We were mobbed and harrassed by the locals. If you buy from one, you have to buy from the others. We went there to be a blessing to the children in the orphanges and take them things. I was so glad to get back to our country.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!

Do not go to Jamaica. Nothing but criminals, drugs and god only knows what. They don't care who you are, how old you are, DRUGS will be offered to you. If you don't get out of that country without getting something stolen, then you are lucky. The only people that like Jamaica, are the folks who are from there or live there. We took a cruise that stopped there, we will NEVER take another cruise that has that as one of its stops, or we just won't get off the ship when it's in port. Very dangerous place, I would never take children there. I do not reccommend that country to ANYONE!

Nearly lost both my kids. Thugs, drugs, never again

Some clown at the resort invited my two 15 yr olds to go to a party with him. He gave them huge joints. They thought they were soooo coool. Had they gone, we might not have seen them again. Busboy stole our camera. Lousy place. Burn it down

I hate when JA, a country which we all hold dear to our hearts, is trashed that way It gets such a bad reputation.

You know Yardie I can't stand it either! But I've heard them all before. What I realize is that these people who go to JA have no idea what a developing country can look like. They also are usually white sububanites who are afraid to go into more impoverished neighborhoods within their own city. They have no frame of reference as to what "dangerous' really means. Many are very afraid of Black people or other people of color and associate negativity to them and their culture by what they see in media or just from their own uncomfortableness. Now I know that many Jamaicans can be intimidating and theft does happen, but as a huge majority of the times Jamaicans can be some of the most fun loving sincere people you will ever have a chance to meet. There's those rotten few who can smell the fear of a new tourist a mile away.

Another issue is tourists...especially American ones are waaaayyy too stush! Things like drugs and men hitting on them is not common out in your face practice to many so that intimidates them too.

I always say there are 2 types of tourists who leave Jamaica, those who love it, and those who hate it, I don't find an in between person even exists. You should check out tripadvisor.com, that site has forums and people get viscious with discussions on Jamaica....its crazy.

I work in the travel industry and have been to the Caribbean many times. I am often embarassed to be from the US... People travel and they think everyone lives in the same "happy place" they come from. It amazes me how many people have so little understanding of the world around them!!!

I have been to JA a few times and on a work trip and had the privelage of staying at 1/2 Moon in MoBay... There was this older AMerican with a fanny pack asking if it was ok to go off property!!??? I wonder why people even bother to go on vacation if all they really want to do is eat and hang out with other Americans. People pay all this money to go to a wonderful place and they are scared the whole time.

My favorite thing about working in travel is that I get to experience other cultures and experience things that many people don't have the oppurtunity to do. I feel very blessed.

I only wish that everyone could open their eyes, hearts and minds and embrace people and places that they maybe aren't familiar with. I have often been told that I am different from "all the other white people"!! I am not sure if that makes me happy or sad.....
