When I walked with Richie trough Kingston we meet this old Rastafari and talked to him about me going to the festival.
"Rebel Salute, he replied, no Rebel anymore..."

Being at the festival for nearly 14hours I knew now what he was talking about; some impressions on the PEPSI Rebel Salute -some nice shows, much sponsoring, very little culture-:

Today I head further east to get closer to Rebel Salute and arrived in a little Fishing Village called Alligators Pond.
No Alligators at all -and different stories where the village has its name from- but more later on.

Starting the day with some wise words...
