Pilgrimage (photo edition)

Some go to Mecca, some go to Rome... i go to Nine Mile...


 Into the hills

Further into the hills...

 The walls of Nine Mile

 Murals of the Cedella Marley Booker school



 View from the Marley home...

 Nine Mile as seen from the hills near Bob's childhood home..

 In the house he was born in...

 The room he was born in.

 A couple of my favorite records



 Bob's favorite Blue Mountain sensimilla...

 The house where he lived with Rita...

 Nine Mile ganja cake

 "we'll share the shelter/of my single bed"

 cold ground was my bed last night/ and a rock was my pillow too
-Talkin Blues 
view from that rock.

The door to his mausoleum, his marble tomb was donated by the Italian Government,
no cameras are allowed inside but you can smoke the sacred herb, 
needless to say i did...
