While we were waiting to board our airplane to Jamaica (after a 5 hour delay) I noticed this elderly lady sitting in the sun. She looked very tired and likely had been delayed too. I believe her family were Italian. I couldn’t resist taking a photo of this lady. This is probably my favorite portrait I have taken.. other than of my kids of course.

Tux in Jamaica
Tux, the Linux mascot, accompanied me to Jamaica on our recent missions trip. We had many adventures together and I captured some of them in pictures. You can see the set of photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/troyandnaomi/sets/72157600024135623/
Tux belongs to my daughters.
Anatomy of a Tourist
How to spot a tourist
Look for these key identifiable marks:
- Large sun hat (Tilley hats are best and a sure sign of a true tourist)
- Big camera
- Backpack for sunscreen, snacks, extra camera gear, plus other stuff for every contingency.
- Water bottle attached to the backpack
- Shorts (pants that zip off at the knees are best and a sure sign of a true tourist)
- Sandals
- White legs (glowing white if he is coming from a Canadian winter)
Some of the students (Maressa) pointed out that I looked like the perfect stereotype of a tourist on our recent trip to Jamaica.
Well.. if the sandal fits…
Away..
Thank you for contacting TroyAndNaomi.com. Troy will be away in Jamaica until March 19 and can’t come to the blog right now. He is with a group of students on a missions trip to share the Gospel with young and old on the western side of the island. Please leave a comment after the beep.
