Ya Mon, No Problem

We are back from our wonderfully fantastic trip to Jamaica! We got back on Thursday morning at 2am, since our flight was delayed for 3 hours, and I haven't had enough energy to begin to put this post together. I'll try to let the pictures speak for themselves, and will spare you the day-by-day run through. The first picture was taken just outside the resort, where the beach is very private and untouched. I had read a review online that you can check out with the guards and are free to wander the beach. We had a fun morning out there all to ourselves.

This was the view that was right outside of our room. There was a pool to the left, so we often used our patio door to get back into the room, rather than going around to the front. All of the rooms are ocean facing, not necessarily ocean view. But we had the best of both having a ground floor room and a nice view.
On Monday we did the only excursion of the trip and went horseback riding. Joel and I had never rode before, so it was a fun experience. A little scary for me though, as halfway through the trip my horse, Big Red, decided that she needed to get to the front of the line and took off in a full on gallop for about 50 yards...that definitely got the adrenaline flowing! Luckily I didn't fall off!

This was one of our favorite meals, outside on the patio facing the ocean. Most of the food was very good and we definitely stretched out our stomachs--we can't seem to get full off of the meals we are eating at home now! Most nights after dinner we played pool or table tennis at the games center. I even beat Joel a few times :-)

These are some photos that the Sandals photographers took on Tuesday. That morning we went on the glass bottom boat ride, tried out snorkeling (I'm getting those developed and will post any good ones) and attempted to sail.

These pictures are from our last day...we had breakfast,

and had a last stroll along the beach before packing up. Then we had lunch and our last drink--see Joel with his sad face. We really loved Sandals and the Jamaican people!
