Negril, Jamaica- Our Honeymoon

Ok, should be one of my last 2007 posts! Here are some pictures from Negril, Jamaica where we went on our Honeymoon. It was SO amazing! And a very eye opening experience to say the least. The Sandals resort was paradise, but Jamaica itself is a very poor country. We arrived the Monday after our wedding and returned late Sunday night. Plenty of time to enjoy paradise! Our room was oceanfront, literally you stepped out onto the beach from our door. The staff was amazing very accomodating, the food was different but great, can you really say anything bad about an all-inclusive resort?! My favorite part of the whole trip was horseback riding through the hills of Jamaica. The last part of the trail we rode the horses through the water, that was awesome! We went deep enough to where at one point, they were swimming. I have always loved horseback riding and have always dreamed of horseback riding through the ocean. We picked The Sandals Resort in Negril because we had several friends go there and said it was awesome. We have even talked about going back with everyone!

This is us before we "set sail"! We tried all of the water sports they offered, including snorkeling, it was a big step for me!

This is at Rick's Cafe, which is a big tourist attraction in Jamaica. Some of the Jamaicans would go around and collect money so people would pay to see them jump off of high ledges and one even climbed a tree and jumped! Some of the tourists decided to join in....including my husband...when in Rome, right?! I missed him mid-air but I did catch his splash!
Here is a picture from horseback riding. My horse ate the entire time, so I had my own personal escort to move "Laser" along!
Glass bottom boat ride, with our host, as he called himself- Flava Flava! He was hilarious! The staff of the resort made everything wonderful!
