[chuck] in Bob Marley, Jamaica, Nine Mile, Other

 

Welcoming committee at Bob Marley's tomb in Nine Mile, Jamaica. Bob Marley was born in Nine Mile (about 35 miles S of Ocho Rios), and the tomb is owned and operated by his family. Elysa and I visited here in the mid-1980's, and had the pleasure of being shown around by Bunny Wailer (born Nevile O'Riley Livingston), one of the original members of Bob Marley and the Wailers (along with Peter Tosh). [NOTE: We bought none of the numerous "commemorative objects" offered for sale here].
