La Plaine

Every Thursday John's doctor does a traveling clinic around the island, and last week we went to a place called La Plaine. It is just a small town on the opposite side of the island and just a little to the northeast . There are a few hotels and tourist attractions around the area so while John was working in the clinic during the day the driver took me to a very remote location in the area, called Jungle Bay. This was the most beautiful place I have been to on the island and the pictures just are not enough to describe the beauty.
The Atlantic Ocean was on this side of the island near La Plaine unlike further down south at the tip of Scott's Head, where the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea are separated by a small strip of land. The Atlantic Ocean is much more aggressive which causes larger waves compared to the Caribbean Sea, and it really something to see the difference. When the waves come it beats the rocks back and forth so hard that is sounds like a loud crashing.
