In May 2010, my two wonderful daughters took me on a trip of a lifetime to Negril, Jamaica!
This was my Christmas present from them both and they wanted to take me somewhere as I had always wished to go. Knowing how much I love the ocean, this was an awesome trip!
I had just closed on my house on Friday and boarded a plane to Mobay on Saturday. I had jumped through so many hoops about the house I hadn't gotten a chance to get excited about my trip.
Landing in Mobay was awesome. We followed the tourist like cattle to customs and then to our taxi bound for "The Grand Pineapple Resort".
A beautiful, colorful resort that is totally awesome.
Anyway, we saw the most beautiful countryside and the people along the road took my heart. I was taken back by it all and truly sad to see this poverty.
We arrived at the Pineapple and never touched our luggage except to pack and unpack. I saw my daughters at breakfast lunch and dinner and an occasional party on the beach.
We had big plans to see this and see that, but I found myself sitting in a beach chair at the waters edge that our dear sweet security guard "Ralston" had reserved and prepared for us everyday we were there.
I just sat and watched the hustlers on the beach. Never afraid to venture off the property. The guard always knew who we all were and to get our room numbers if we left so in case we did not return, they would search for us.
Beautiful music, beautiful dancing,
