Elections in 1980 saw the democratic socialists voted out of office. Political violence marred elections during the 1990s.

Let your traveling duo be approached by a fellow, who only seems to want to show you that he excels in questioning you on where are you from, what do you do, and what is your name, blaah, blaah, blaah. Half an hour later, as the guy gets more and more tedious by the minute, exchange a few words in Finnish with your friend and decide to ditch the bore. Next, learn that labeling this dude dull was a serious [View Full Entry]

Well, the last day of vacation... sometimes not the best because as they say, 're-entry sucks'. This was not the case here. I can say that this was a very relaxing vacation, and the last day was a very pleasant good bye to Jamaica. We had fun, we were relaxed, and ready to go home. It was the perfect length of time. We had our last breakfast, and today, instead of heading for the beach to play when done, we headed to meet with our shuttle to the airport at Montego Bay for a 9:00 departure, for a 11:30 airport arrival.

Christmas in the sand! Wow this is so cool! or hot rather... We decided to spend Xmas day with the birds, hummingbirds that is . We call our Rastaman driver and headed to the hills to a bird sancturay. He was excited because he hadnt had a chance yet to bring any tourists there and had been wanting to go himself. We arrived at the old house and was greeted by the caretaker. The woman who had orginally trained the wild birds has since passed but the place is well cared for by this man and his family. We sat with [View Full Entry]

is now located on Sandals property of their Royal Caribean resort. As guests in the flagship property we had privledges to visit . Today we shuttled over to Sandals Royal Caribean to see Kokomo now called Sandals Cay. It sports a swim up bar, a jacuzzi and a parrot. It was quiet & serene so we took a walk , a dip , a drink and headed back to the mainland. There we tried a different water bike but it was so windy instead of heading to Cuba we opted for the kayak instead. The water was shallow and we got [View Full Entry]

The title is an old Jamacian proverb that basically means little by little we get the job done. We have realized it wont be possible to blog from this resort but not to worry, with pen to pad I'll get the job done. Today we did everything there was to do here on the resort. We sailed a small sailboat, tried a wave cycle , kayaked the beachfront, took a snorkel trip and watched the fish and the coral from a glass bottomed boat. I even played a game of Bingo on the beach. Today we also met the rest of [View Full Entry]

Ohh New York and her snowstorms . After 3 hours on the runway we finally set off on our 3 1/2 hour flight. The good news is I finally got to see what de-icing looks like. Basically they drive the plane into a hangar and a truck with a crane hanging off the top drives around the plane spraying green liquid on the wings. Woila! Now we go.... At the Sandals arrival lounge we were told Congratulations you have been upgraded! Our room for only one night was beach view with a patio. Needless to say it was not the basic [View Full Entry]

Friday morning at 4:50am I wake up. Get ready and walk with Keith over to catch the bus to head to Montego Bay. We stand in line to check in and I notice that the woman running the office is the same one from when we went to Ocho Rios - the same one that told us last time that there were no open seats on the bus. We check in without any problems and board the bus. It’s still 20 minutes before we are suppose to leave and hardly anyone has taken their seats yet. Out of all of the [View Full Entry]
