Jamaica: Moving our Family:
Hi,
Jamaica is a wondeful country. I have just returned to UK after a 3 month stay as my boyfriend is currently working there. From what I have seen, disability could be a bit of a disadvantage in terms of mobility. For example, pavements are non existant or in a poor state. I never felt in danager in terms of crime, however like anywhere you should be on your guard. We live in a great housing development with 24 hr security, and I feel very safe. Most people drive with the car windows up, and doors looked. It is always nice to escape Kingston & head to the north coast (2 hr drive) where there are some wonderful hotels and breathtaking scenery.
As far as horse riding goes, there is the Caymanas Park which is 30 mins drive from Kingston. Horse racing takes place regularly here. I know of many of the hotels on the north coast that offer horseback riding, and you may want to contact: www.hoovesjamaica.com to see if they can assist you any further. Jamaica is a fantastic place, and I can't wait to get back there, if only they had an M&S food hall.....
I hope this has been of some help, and if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
Nichola
