Back in the saddle
As you can tell, I’m back from vacation. I think that I relaxed a little too much. It’s tough getting back into the swing of things. Today at work I socialized for 3 hours and worked for about an hour and fifteen minutes. I still feel like I am on vacation. In an effort to stomp my lazy slump, here’s an account of my trip to Jamaica.
I stayed at Beaches Resort in the town of Negril (the western side of the island of Jamaica). The all-inclusive resort was located right on Negril’s 7 mile beach. Let me tell you, Jamaica is paradise. The sands of the beach are white, and the scenery is colorful. The sunsets are incredible and the water is crystal clear. The first few days I hung around the beach, enjoyed some Jamaican food, fun, and sun. I took advantage of snorkeling nearly every day that I was on the island. I saw some beautiful fish (think Finding Nemo) and coral. Last Wednesday I explored the city of Negril. I visited the local market and shopping center and bought some local music as well as a coconut bracelet and necklace.
The people of Jamaica were very ncie and laid back. I could do without driving on their roads though. For one thing, they drive on the left hand side of the road. The roads are extremely narrow and have no shoulder. You are inches from the car in the opposite lane at all times. There are no traffic signs outside of Montego Bay (Mo Bay). The motorists honk at one another as a signal. I found the driving to be a little too chaotic for my likes.
I went to Rick’s Cafe, a tourist hot spot in Negril. There the Jamaicans ask for donations from the crowds and in turn jump from trees 90 feet high into the water below. Afterwards, I went to a nice little restaurant on the cliffs called 3 dives and enjoyed some Jerk Chicken and watched the sunset. You can watch the sunset LIVE every Wednesday and Friday starting at 6pm CST by going to RealNegril.com
I really enjoyed the trip and encourage everyone to visit Jamaica (Negril in particular).
Now it’s back to the grind. School starts tomorrow morning. I am still working on a complete website redesign. There’s also some on-air news in the works with me. You’ll have to keep reading to find out more. For now, I’m off to play some video games and enjoy my last day without school.
