Here goes....My first Trip Report Patrick & Lisa Mar2013....

[lisapat]

Within an hour of our arrival, we had already met Samantha, Barbara, Richelle, and Alvin...who are so good at remembering names, that I'm amazed. This is what is one very cool thing about the Seastar..not only do they learn who you are, but we were never asked our room #, or to sign for any of our drinks/meals...they just are THAT GOOD...everyone, that you have NO WORRIES...Oh, I can't forget Junior...who drives his Japanese limosine...awesome guy..he got us around plenty during our stay.We had room 15, although we had booked 12...the place was totally booked, and I don't know the difference between one room from another...so it was plenty good for us... after settling to our room, and a round of cold stripes at the bar, Junior took us to the cambio(which I guess doubles as a motorbike dealer/rental) then on to Canoe for the Thursday webcast. We immediately met with some very happy from a long day at the beach Canadians, who by the way, were also staying at Seastar..Met with Rob and Lisa who recommended the lion fish(which was already on my agenda), and proceeded to order some, as well as several rounds of Rstripes and dirty bananas. The conch cakes were also a big hit..as well as the steel drum band....ahhhh, Lisa...we've made it, finally. I get this thing as a 44 year old man, I can be watching a movie,or landing in Jamaica, or just letting it hit me, where I ....almost....uncontrollably start to tear up from the joy....my buddies I grew up with would have a couple of names for that.. but it's just one of those things where when I look at life up till now, with all the lows, and not so many highs...it's hard not to appreciate the good times, especially when you have to work so hard for them....ok...anyway...luckily I am wearing shades and can keep the waterworks at bay.
