The Jamaica Military Band performed par excellence at the Hope Botanical Gardens amphitheatre this weekend, bringing back childhood memories for recent Neita's Nest guest, Yvonne Playfair-Scott, and her hosts, of pleasant Sunday afternoons with our families.
Immaculately attired in their nigh-unique zouave uniform reminiscent of the West India Regiment, the orchestra was equally at ease with European classicals, Broadway musicals and our own Mento, and had us calling out for an encore.
And as if we weren't satisfied, next we popped over for the tail end of the Jamaica Orchid Society's Annual Orchid Show and ended the evening with ice cream cones.
