Peace Corps Volunteer Swearing In

It is official, I am now a Peace Corps Volunteer, along with the Ambassador, Governor General, Jamaica Country Director, plus ...and the incredible group of Peace Corps Jamaica 83  - we are finished training!  Also practice picture, before formal final:

And my sector (Green/Environment) ... another 'big up' ... we did it! Training is over!

Our swearing in ceremony was at the US Embassador's Residence ... Very nice!...Below is the Governor General, Patrick Allen.The Governor-General of Jamaica represents the Jamaican monarch, and head
of state, who holds the title of King or Queen of Jamaica.

 Great Friends, Mike and Pat ... part of the over 50 group ... they are in education, and on the other end of the island (lucky the island is only the size of Connecticut)...and it is great to have friends scattered broadly, so we can visit often.

As always, internet is limited ... but I will likely develop a routine to come to the internet cafe on a regular basis, and ideally be better at blog updates.
