I actually almost cried when I wrote it lol ahh I'm such a sap lolOriginally Posted by jeannieb
Oh Manda, why must you tease us? I see you as the last poster and "click" hoping that we have a new installment to read. But...it's just you being your nice self and taking the time to reply to the other posters.You keep getting my hopes up...It's like getting to the good part of a book and someone stealing it away from you.
I do want to add that your last post made me wanna cry. I know that feeling.
major props to you girl for your 1 st experience in Jam..and you didn;t hold back, get scared, etc,et...Got a real taste of Jam life..not just the tourist view..I gather you now want to go back ..heh..??? I', just so glad and happy you went off the beaten track (ie out of tourist area Mobay, negril etc and didn't get stuck in Negril) and exp, other factions.of Jam..I wish people visiting would get it thru their head that those areas arent ALL Jam..that there is so much more..Negril-mobay,ochie--as cool as it is..Isn't everything...You are fortunate you had your own personal tour guide (he he) but anyone can find a local that drives and that would welcome showing people outside the tourist "areas"...Just got ask around from people you trust...

Suzengrace -
I was very fortunate in the end. The trip from the beginning of the planning process was organized and then upside down then organized and upside down and it wasn't until I got off the plane that I really knew everything was going to come together on it's own. Never have I travelled like that and although some people may have not been able to deal with that sort of uncertainty (normally I wouldnt either) I'm happy that I let it just unravel the way it did because I wouldnt have had the experiences that I ended up having if I didnt. I honestly, have to thank not only Andre for being able to see outside the tourist areas but everyone on the board that helped me with my multitude of questions or panic attacks but the other posters who I gained knowledge from before I left for my trip. The only regret I have from my trip is not meeting with Rob and Lisa because without this board I wouldnt have this opportunity to relive my experience or share in others and although being outside of Negril and other major tourist areas was probably my favourite part of the trip I will be back and I will be in Negril if only to see Rob and Lisa to be able to thank them personally.
There is only a full day left in Jamaica and I haven't written it out yet I almost dont want to lol but you're right I do want to go back and have already looked into air fare costs for March
There is just one more big surprise left in my report hopefully you'll stick around because I would love to hear everyones opinions on THAT experience
Lol! We aren't going anywhere! Totally glued here. Like someone said, it has been like reading a romance novel (with beautiful pictures). LOVE it! Thank YOU!
It is so funny to me that this has been said I think twice now because never once did I think romantic when I was there hahaha I mean there might have been moments sunsets little moments
but not what one might consider "romantic" Andre and I bicker like we'd been together for the 13 years we were apart lol And honestly I want to ring his neck sometimes haha But maybe it's
the fact that we were instantly comfortable that makes it romantic?
Manda

I agree with Seveen, I'm so happy you wrote this trip report too! It's truly the best I've ever read.
I've been tuning in every day to read the newest installments and have enjoyed reading it so so much.
Thank you for all that you've shared, introducing us to your friends, letting us into your world and taking us all on a virtual vacation along with you. What an amazing trip!!
Through your pictures and words I feel like I've experienced an intimate and authentic slice of Jamaica that I never could have experienced otherwise.
Carpe Diem
