JAMAICA! It was the most amazing trip of my life! Friendly people, beautiful country (beer on every corner) ... we stayed at a rental villa called "On top of the world" close to Port Maria and it was a vacation like no other. Because we weren't in an all-inclusive we had a driver , cook/housekeeper and our cook's son that was a bit of security and a "groundskeeper". Our driver "Winston" an older fellow, took us to all the places you don't always get to see and we got to experience the side of Jamaica that is not part of your normal trip. The only drawback to this villa was that it was a 20 minute drive to the beaches...other than that it was AMAZING! We had to pay minimal gas fees and he took us everywhere....and helped us learn their way of speaking english which was very very cool! I'd recommend Jamaica ANYDAY! As I said in my earlier post it was FANTASTIC!

We rode horses in the ocean, went to the falls in Ocho Rios, went to a concert outside on Christmas day, went scuba diving (their diving is really nice) wanted to swim with dolphins but Ocho Rios is a port for cruise ships and so you have to book WAY in advance! All in all, lots to do and see.
