... house we found was great - a little far from the beach though but that allowed us to drive through the whole town every day and chat to some of the coolest taxi drivers on earth! A trip to the supermarket to stock up on Red Stripes (beers), local rum and some food and we were all set for the week.

Our time there was largely spent on the beaches and wandering up and down the 'Hip Strip' which is basically the main tourist street with all the ...

Check- in was as I expected at Sandals – Rum punch on arrival and met at the door by a friendly face. The front desk was busy preparing our paperwork. We were nicely seated in the lobby ...

Well, very nearly at the end of this blog now. Later today we will transfer to Montego Bay airport, and (all being well) take off for the UK at 7.05pm tonight. We should be back at Gatwick for 10am Sunday.

It is strange to think we are going home. This break has been truly amazing and it is a shame that it is coming to an end. I guess there are some things that it will be nice to return to to (at this point, I can only think of one ...

... de gjor er fordi, under engelsk styre ble det fraktet slaver fra afrika til jamaica for aa jobbe paa jordene. Men de kunne ikke engelsk, og de fikk ikke akkurat skole, saa de begynte aa herme etter det de trodde engelskmennene sa :) Dvs..

Though there are no chimneys there is always a waft of smoke pouring out. Daren Ganga. We did do a day tour that took us to Mayfield Falls which involved an hour river walk up the falls. Was good fun and something completely different. The only bummer was that every day at ...

... Mobay, the airport workers are familiar with the artist SNOW, who was traveling with us. Instantly they all start singing one of his songs and dancing around with Snow. It was a hoot! There was also a rum punch booth set up outside the airport that day, I've never seen it since. But they were serving free rum punch to anyone who wanted it. We boarded our bus and set out for Negril ...
