Welcome Jamar - pleasure to meet you and your excitement is contagious. We all remember our first time and for many of us it was life changing. For me it is hard to put in words but in JA I feel so free and joyous. All the ideas mentioned are right on - I recommend you experience the culture thru food, music, nature and the warm wise wonderful resilient people of Jamaica.
Once you go you'll know ...... and be booking your return trip right away I suspect.
ONE LOVE and enjoy each and every moment.
