We go because 32 years ago my husband and two buddys drove a van from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Florida, parked the van and flew to Jamaica and found this wonderful place they had heard about full of friendly locals, hippies and the most beautiful beaches and more.....he took me two years later and after a few years of return visits we married on the beach at sunset on Feb 28, 1986 surrounded by 50 family, friends both Canadian and Jamaican that we had made throughout the years. A few return visits, and 26 years later we are returning with our three kids, ages 24, 19 and 15 next Saturday, March 9th to show them first hand why we fell in love with this little gem. I can't wait for them to experience it and am so happy we can do it with them!! Things have changed throughout the years, but the people, the vibe and the beach still remain as beautiful as ever and we want to share this with them. It sounds like we all have a reason to return and they are all very similar, but I think one thing is universal and it has to do with the feeling we get when the wheels touch down and we feel the heat and see the smiles and smell the familiar aromas that surround us.........and the dust of our lives is washed away by the Caribbean Sea, even if it is for a week or two or.........
