Dears, we are talking a beautiful story here, the kind that warm the cockles of the heart, and was a simply fabulous endorsement of Jamaica showcasing, as the piece did, their (the hosts') emotional connections to the island; as well as some of the natural beauty and attractions for which the island is famous and celebrated.

From Lime Cay to the Bob Marley Museum and on to Mystic Mountain, with second cousin to Lester, Scott Wilson, acting as 'tour guide' and Patois instructor, the feature was simply precious and made for not just fabulous TV but was also a fabulous endorsement of Brand Jamaica.
