Chapter 3
Finally in Jamaica

One good thing about the flight was that it wasn't full so the wife and I had 3 seats each to lay down and I took full advantage of that little gift from Sunwing. I must have slept for over 2 hours because it felt like in no time we were landing in JAMAICA- yee haw.

The time now is 3am, get our luggage get thru customs and step out into the warm humid air I had been waiting a couple of months to experience. I guess because we were so late getting to Jamaica there were only 10 or so guys trying to sell us everything from weed to cocaine outside the airport. 10 or so polite no thank yous and we found our bus. We board the bus and are off to Negril, although still exhausted we am excited to be on our way to the resort.

I bought Canadian beer at the duty free before leaving Toronto and since the bus didn't have any I drank 6 Molson Canadian on the way. The bus is full and our first stop is at the Rui, everyone except us get off at that beautiful resort. My wife commented that she hoped our resort was as nice as this, now we've had a bad trip thus far and I couldn't bring myself to tell her that our resort may be a little less, how can I say, spectacular.

Anyway, we get to the resort and everything is closed. Go figure, its only 5.30 in the am. The security guard meets us out on the road and shows us to our room, we tip him 5 american, thank him, and assure him that “ANYTHING” I need I will buy from him. The time is now 5.50am. Lets recap- up at 5am Mon- arrive in hotel room at 5.50am Tue. The wife goes right to bed and I grab a beer and go out on the balcony to hopefully catch the sunrise, not to be, the sun doesn't rise there but sets in the evening. I drink my warm beer and do my immitation of Arnold SWartinegar in the movie Kindergarden Cop when he falls onto the bed after an exhausting day of chasing kids. O, yea, the wife hasn't said anything about the resort, she was just to tired to complain lol.
