We actually only left the resort one day. We walked into town for a little sightseeing and shopping (although we bought very little compared to many others who filled their suitcases with T-shirts and trinkets with the words Jamaica and "No Problem" on them) and we did an afternoon trip to Dunn's River Falls where we formed a human chain with a family of 16 Canadians (and bunch of other vacationers) up the 600 ft waterfall.
There were also bobsled and zip line tours through the mountains we could have done, but there was plenty to do (and eat!) right at the resort, so we spent most of our time there sitting by the pool...
Using the water slides...
Paddle boating in the bay...
And snorkeling. Although I freaked out a little (or a lot) when a group of guys standing on the pier watching us snorkel pointed out what they described as a 6 foot long water snake swimming in our vicinity. Minutes later (as I swam as fast as I could back to shore), a local clarified that it was only a white eel and not a water snake, as water snakes prefer shaded areas of water. Still, I had a hard time convincing myself that it was safe to go back in.
My husband, the electrician got a kick out of the outdoor lighting, screwed directly to a palm tree.
Sunrise on our last day. It was hard to say goodbye to that beautiful and WARM sunshine.
And one last Red Stripe at the airport as we were waiting for our plane.

Love all the pics, Aliceson, but the lounge chairs are my favorite!
Wonderfully colorful and beautiful shots!!! That human chain looks good, but tell me you guys didn't jump in there!
