We had a wonderful time in Jamaica-it is just a beautiful place! We got to the resort around 4pm Thursday evening after a pretty wild shuttle ride. People in Jamaica drive a little crazy-no turn signals, lots of horn honking, and not so much use of the brakes. The resort we stayed at was awesome! We arrived to check-in and were immediately offered Mimosa's and some munchies. We went straight to our room, ordered room service and then went to check out the acoustic show. We were pretty tired after getting up at 2:30am that morning. Friday was perfect. The sun was shining, so we did some swimming in the ocean (aqua blue with white clean sand!) and layed out on the beach. We failed to re-apply our "waterproof" sunscreen and ended up with some sunburn. That night we took an excursion to shop and sightsee-ending up at Rick's Cafe to watch people cliff dive and the sunset. Well, the clouds rolled in and there was some rain, so we didn't get to see the sunset. That night, we watched a full band concert on the beach. Tried a Bob Marley shot-which you kind of have to see to understand what it is. Saturday was overcast and rained off and on. But we were still able to spend time on the beach and I did a little more swimming. Walked along the beach and then went to the Manager's Gala Buffet. These people went all out-it was huge! Tons of food! Then another concert on the beach in the rain. After we couldn't take getting soaked anymore, we headed back to our room, sat on the patio and listened to the music awhile. We have nearly 300 pictures! It was a great time!
Missed Alex quite a bit. Sounds like he had a fun time with Grandma and Papa though (thanks Mom and Dad!!!). He has finally started feeding himself over the weekend! It is so fun to watch him-he really chows down now!
