Jamaica: Sunburn Report!

Sarah got it. Not me. :( We went snorkeling yesterday and came back and she was as red as can be. Sad thing was that we rubbed her down so good with spf 45! That was about 45 minutes before we left, then we were in the shade the whole day until we got in the water for about 30 minutes to snorkel and bam! We got out and she was bright red. That Norwegian blood must not do so well with the sun. We're going to make the best of it though and do some of the classes that they offer and games they have out of the sun. As for now I'm going to go get some breakfast for her. Day 2 was awesome, more on that later tonight.

Ok I meant to reply before you got on the airplane. But, it was 5Am and I fell back asleep. So when you get back and your cell phone works it will say something like, "Have fun on your belated honeymoon. Bring me back some crappy cheap jamaican trinket." :)

I love snorkelling. Look for baracudas. They probably already told you but don't step on sea urchins.(those spikey balls in the rocks!) Also have you seen carvings of a rastafarian guy with a huge dong? Seems like everytime I have been those are something that several gift shops try to get your attention.
Tourism is a way of life for a lot of these people. With that being said, be careful what you get yourself into. Some people will try to talk you out of your money. They will try to get you to think you are getting good deals on site seeing, gifts, etc..Only you find out that it cost more than or you are getting less than advertised.

With a name like Couples, sounds like you are off the beaten path. They are probably much more classy than the places around the Cruise Ship port in Ocho Rios. But if you do happen to head to that part of the island, I suggest Dunns River Falls. It's pretty fun to hike up a waterfall that starts at the beach and goes up into the forrest.

I hate that Sarah got a Sunburn. Put some aloe on and take a cold shower and you will be good to go. Have you guys seen any Iguanas? They are around, and they are huge. Not as huge as the carving of, I think they called him Willy, but still.

Can't wait to see you guys again. But enjoy your long awaited honeymoon. Love you guys. Dont forget July 12, our house. Cookout.

Uh Nate I don't think you want to see some of those pictures. As they say, "what happens in Jamaica stays in Jamaica." Wait, nobody says that, its Vegas. Well, "What happens in Jamaica, is illegal in the States." NINJA VANISH!!
