Jamaica 3/5

More Margaritaville. These were super yummy! They had so many flavors!! When we got there we got free leis and free shots.



Out on the beach behind Margaritaville. Sunset was beautiful and we were just happy to be together. We also got to see a guy breathing fire and an old lady trying to rub up on him. Great performer- he even walked around on crushed glass. Interesting...

Us in the hot tub after Margaritaville. They had random hot tubs around so we got some time to ourselves that night. Other than getting eaten by bugs when we tried to lay in the hammock after the hot tub it was great!

And this was us using my underwater picture function in the hot tub. :)


Us in a kayak. There were free water sports and lessons at the resort. We also learned how to wind surf. Cory and Kendi went wakeboarding. They were awesome!!!!!

Alright 2 more to go. I am excited I am making progress with this.


Have a great day! God bless!

Jamaica 2/5

More Jamaica pics- this one is of me and Kendi trying really hard to open our eyes and not blow air out of our nose at the same time. It is harder than it looks believe it or not.



Second night. We ate at the entertainment venue. They have a stage and a covered dining area. It was a pretty big seating area and even had some "patio seating" around the outside. I got to wear the necklace and earrings I designed in Doha so that was pretty awesome! And we got to dance.
The maintenance guys on the resort were super nice. They went and got a coconut for us and cut it open so we could drink the milk. Then they chopped it in half so we could eat the meat. We repaid him with a water bottle full of vodka. We had free drinks available to us so we didn't mind. :)
Fun in the sun! This was in the swim up pool. This was probably after the 11am beach volleyball game. Every morning had beach volleyball (not going to lie we slept through a few :) and the afternoon had pool volleyball. I think that counts as working out every day we were there.

I think this is the only place the Lions and Broncos can live harmoniously with each other. This was at the Margaritaville in Negril.

Well, two down, three to go!

Later!

Jamaica 1/5

So I am trying to get this thing updated now since we have been doing a lot this summer. Here is the first installment of the Jamaica trip but we took so many pictures I need 5 Posts to put it all in. So here is number one...

We went to Jamaica in May with Cory and Kendi Knop and had a great time. Other than Kendi being sick while we were there (later we found out it was because she was pregnant with little baby Knop!!!!) I think everyone had an awesome time and we can't wait to do it again in a few years!

We decided to fly out of Colorado and to take a little vacation there as well. On the way to Fort Collins we stopped in Colorado Springs and watched the Red Wings play-off game at Buffalo Wild Wings with our old friend Caracillo and a couple new friends I met in Baghdad Josh and Lt Col Allen (not pictured). I think the Red Wings lost but I can't be certain. :)

This is a picture of Cory and Kendi at the airport before we got on our shuttle to the resort.
Here is Richard and I at the airport too. Richard got free beer so he was happy. I got to wear my travel outfit so I was happy too. :)

First night at the resort. Awesome sushi for appetizer. We tried to go back there a few nights but it was packed. We finally went there the last night and just ordered take out and ate at the nacho bar. It was awesome!

My camera takes underwater pictures. I think Richard was showing how he was inverted...

Alright well 4 more left but it will probably take a few days. You know how I am with this thing...
Oh yeah and if Cory or Kendi are reading this I finally bought cushy envelopes to send the picture CD- sorry I am a bad friend...
Later!
