They've lived in Jamaica all their lives so they know about hurricanes. I, on the other hand, was born in Britain because my parents came here when they were first married. They bought a house in London, found work, and my sister and I were born a few years later. Our parents always tell wonderful stories about Jamaica and we go there as often as we can. We love staying with our aunt and uncle in the north of the island. Last year, my sister started university and my parents were busy working, so they said I could go on my own, which meant the visit was even more exciting than usual. I went in December, because between October and mid- December the weather isn't as hot, but it's still lovely. However, it's also the hurricane season during those months, so you have to watch out for that. Luckily, my aunt and uncle heard the warning on the radio before I arrived, and as a result, there was already lots of extra food and drink in the house. I was glad about that, as one of my favourite things about being in Jamaica is the food! As soon as we saw the first signs of the hurricane, we closed the windows and the doors, and then we waited. The storm was a Category 1 hurricane, with heavy rain and winds of about 125 km/h. I played games and chatted with my cousins to pass the time, and we ate lots of food. But I remember the sound of the wind crashing around the house, day and night, and I felt quite scared. My aunt told me there was nothing to worry about and that they'd had worse storms than that, so I felt a bit better. While we waited, we listened to the news on the radio; there was some flooding on the roads and on farms, and some damage to buildings. The storm began on Monday, and then by Wednesday it was moving out to sea. So we weren't indoors for very long really, and afterwards, there was sunshine again!
