We are busy in Jamaica getting prepared. Dark clouds loom over Central Manchester where I live. We have not recovered from Hurricane Ivan!!! Will keep you posted.

Diane at this point there is a chance that Jamaica will be in the center of this hurricane on Sunday afternoon. If it is a direct hit, your hotel and or airline may cancel your trip anyway - the island may be in no shape for tourists. You really need to contact where you are staying and call your airline for information. Good luck -

Does anyone know of a webcam(s) for Martinique or Dominica? I have been searching for the last 2 days but can't come up with anything.
