    Re: Discover Yourself!

    [SIZE=3]Day 2 continued...

    As of now it was around 3:00-3:30pm Soon as I got back to room, I noticed my phone lighting up. I check it and I have missed calls, texts, and facebook chat messages. I thought to myself this can't be good. I get on my jamaican cell and call home to see what the problem was. My sister is taking care of things for me, but she something really important came up and she needed me to get back home right away. I broke down and cried. I could not believe my luck!! Ugh! I just got here and now I have to leave?!!

    We talk for a good hour or so, I didn't have to cancel my trip completely just a few days. Those few days I promised myself to do as much as possible! We had to do a three way call with Orbitz to see about refunds, scheduling earlier flights, calling Clives and speaking with the manager at Legends. It was absolutely draining. We kept getting disconnected...about 2.5 hours later, things were squared away. The only thing I felt like doing was having dinner.

    We walked to Cynthia's and decided to have Fry chicken and baked chicken...all while discussing my shortened trip.

    After dinner, we walked around a bit and decided to have a drink at Legends bar. One virgin hummingbird and a redstripe= $1070J...ridicolous! But I must say the hummingbird the bartender made for me was really good! It made me feel better about my situation. While waiting for my drink, we watched the NBA playoffs, the lady beside me was a doll but she was completely stoned or drunk. She reeked of alcohol, kept talking my ear off until her husband came to get her.

    Day 3, Friday the 13th.

    I awoke early again and sat in bed watching CNN until I felt others were up. Today, I would venture out to Grange Hill to see my family and a few good friends. I got all dolled up.

    I turned a lot of heads in this dress.

    My friend and I ate breakfast... then left Negril at 12pm. It was so good seeing everyone again! I handed out a few gifts I brought, gave hugs,fists bumps and chatted for a few hours. I wanted stay longer but my time was limited and I didn't want to stay out so late because the roads are quite rough. Said my goodbyes until next time...

    Arrived back in Negril at exactly 2pm. We decided to spend more time on the beach. Made a quick stop at my room to put on my swimsuit. Walked through the bar an out on the beach. Not many people on the beach so we planted our bums at the now closed Merrills 3 resort. Felt something hit me on the head and looked up and saw grapes? Didn't know there were grapes trees on the beach! LOL! They were not ripe yet but I'm sure they will get ate.

    trying to figure out what hit me. :confused

    While I'm in the water...I look out and see Neville the patty man! I run out of the water, ask him if he had any vegetable patties, he does. I get two and wait for them to cool off a bit. We chat for a few minutes and he continues on his way. Such a nice guy!

    I wanted to get a quick peek at this so called strip club called Las Vegas. In the day time, it looks like a normal building?? No way would I ever think it was a strip club, LOL!

    We eat, dry off and head back to Legends to get cleaned up. Along the way, I noticed some sweet crafts by Jamaica Tamboo. I would buy one but how would I get it home without paying an arm and a leg to Customs? Hmm...

    As we were walking back to Legends I just begin to realize how empty it was. Many guests took the morning shuttle to Samsara...the sister property of Legends.

    You might try compressing your photos first. I find it dramatically reduces the upload time as the file size is much smaller
    Also if you continue to have issues with pictures not being able to be viewed the use of photobucket can sometimes help and it can be faster with the reports as you just paste the link

    I may try that, but I don't really want to resize anything...too lazy.
