Terry & Jo - 05/00

Trip Report for Terry & Jo, May 2000

 

Last year Terry wrote our trip report, but he is making me do it as punishment for being so bad while we were there this year!!!

 

What can you say about a trip to paradise?   Last year we made the mistake of only booking 4 nights and I cried all the way home, so this year we booked 8 nights and I didn’t want to leave, but I was in better spirits this time. 

 

We left our house at 4:30 a.m. on May 2.   We took the bus from MoBay and met a great couple coming to Hedo to be married (The Smith’s, yea right!!).  Arrived at Hedo and of course our room was not ready, so we ate and went to the nude pool and waited.  Three hours later we were told that we were being bumped to the prude side until Thursday as all rooms were full.  I am afraid my redheaded temper got the better of me as last year we got bumped to the Lido the first day and the prude side the second day and we were only there 4 nights!!  Miraculously they found us a nude garden in the H-section the next day.  I had people walk up to me all day and pat me on the back for standing my ground!  Tonight was the PJ party and we dressed and went, but it was too hot, too crowded and we couldn’t get to the bar,  so we did not stay long.  Rene-your serpent costume should have won, it was the best there.  You was robbed!

 

Wednesday, May 3 we moved to the nude side and had a wonderful room in the H-section with lots of our friends there.  Our room was the one with the daily cartoon. 

 

From there is was  beach, pool, hot tub and purple rains, beach, pool, hot tub, purple rains, etc.  We started out the week going to the main dining room for lunch and the lunch time spins, but as the week progressed couldn’t seem to get the energy to dress so ate the wonderful food at Robert’s and stayed in the pool.  We did manage to nap every afternoon so we could stay late at the hot tub. 

 

Thursday, May 4 was my birthday and it was a great day.  Thank you Marc (the Sizzla) for making it more special by having almost sex with me in the dining room at lunch!!!  Hmmm, nice buns!   This was also Toga night which was a lot of fun.  We were told by several people that night that we should have won the couple's category with our brought from home matching togas, but we did not.

 

Saturday was the Smith’s wedding and we put clothes on and attended. It was at the point and they were all dressed beautifully.  They shared their wedding day with another couple, Ken & TyAnn, and it was beautiful.  It sprinkled just a little bit during the wedding, but once we were in Veronica’s for the reception the sky opened up and rained for a couple of hours.  Fortunately we had wonderful people there and plenty of champagne, so we didn’t mind the rain. 

 

Sunday was Elvis and we loved it, we danced for hours.  Even Ed and Kathy got up and danced.  By the way everyone pitch in and help Elvis with the Rising Hope Foundation. 

 

Monday was Pastafari’s with Ed, Kathy and Roger for Kathy’s birthday.  The food and company were excellent.

 

By Tuesday most of our friends went home and we were left by ourselves for a short while, but there is always somebody there to meet and have fun with.  We consoled ourselves by taking the nude cruise and having a ball.  I even went down the slide twice, obviously I had more rum punch then I realized as I pushed off on the way down and almost went over the edge on the way down.  On my return try the lady in charge made me sit as she instructed me “do not push off this time."  The next time down was much slower and  less eventful and Terry was even able to get my picture.  We did not do PJ Nite as we just weren’t up to it again.  So we did Karaoke at Veronica’s and had a good time. 

 

Wednesday was our last day.  We set out our luggage, gave some gifts to the staff and made our way to the nude pool to drown our sorrows.  Special thanks to the wonderful couple who made our last hour special-yes we did make the bus on time, fortunately they were running on Jamaican time as usual!!!

 

Our only complaints were all the prostitutes hanging around fully dressed at the pool and the hot tub, they seemed to be in abundance this year, and the frozen drink machine and beer dispenser missing from the hot tub.  We had to make that long trek to the main dining room to fill up our containers.

 

We made some great friends during the week…..

Rick and Cindy kept the party going.  (Sorry we missed the dice game!)

Rene’ and Wayne, you two will always have a special place in our hearts. 

Ed & Kathy, Ed I still laugh out loud when I think of you and all the fun we had.  I hope your friend appreciates the picture we posed for.  I will always remember the toe sucking!

Roger, enjoyed all of our conversations.  Hope to see you there again sometime. 

Bob & Janette, I really enjoyed meeting you two, I know you will have a great life together.

Cliff (Butt Crack Jr.) and his beautiful lady, I know you will become a regular at Hedo just like your folks.

Jeanie the tattoo lady, your soul and mine have met somewhere in the past I am sure of it. 

Also, Herb & Pam, Phyllis & Dean, Linda & Dave, Julie & Bob and Mike the cop who streaked the dining room every lunch and dinner and finally did go home and numerous other people we met, but the alcohol has softened my brain and DIF has set in and I cannot remember their names at the moment!!!!

Special thanks to Denny P’s page and to Chris Santilli and her book The Naked Truth About Hedonism II, both of which helped make our trip even more fun.
