May TR - Villas Sur Mer & Idle While

[JaJodi]

I love to snorkel. My DH knows that if I get a couple of good snorkel trips in, then I will be a happy camper. And we all know that if your wife is happy, you have a better shot at it too. So we had chatted some with Captain Kirk and later that morning we loaded up our gear and headed out to the reef. This trip we went to where some of the AI resorts and divers tie up. We have an older model Fuji waterproof camera so we have quite a few snorkel shots, I thought the reef looked pretty good and there were quite a few fish, like swimming in an aquarium.

Ok, I’m going to throw in a story (I’ll keep it short). When we got married and were in Jamaica for the first time, we went out on a catamaran to go snorkeling. The boat was full of honeymooners from Sandals and when the boat anchored everyone was holding hands and jumping in with their spouse, lovingly swimming together. I get my gear and by the time I get to the edge of the boat – my husband is gone! He is so excited to be off and snorkeling he totally forgets his new bride. This is one of those things I’ve razzed him about over the years. So, we get out to the reef and he decides that he will stay with me! He even held my hand a few times while we snorkeled around together, it was quite a breakthrough for my dear husband and now I have another ending to the story.
