I love camping, I have 2 very close friends from Jamaica, and I can tell you, you tell da trudt mon! My friend Bobby went with me one weekend. Said he wanted to try it. He didn't boil bananas, but by God, he brought rice and peas! We had a blast though. I'm going to have to show them this blog. Way funny!
