Dave - December, 2001

12-29 to 01-05
My third trip since May (I may have a problem) and I loved it. Had my free days that had to be used in 01 so thanks to Buddy at Go Classy I was able to use them over the holiday.
Arrived the recommended 3 hours early at the airport but of course Air J workers don't start till 2 hours before flight time. Humm why am there early again?
No real problems with security so off to the gate to wait for boarding. Nice flight down and I even got thru customs fast. Walk thru the gate and there is Tim air waiting for me.
Friends I met on the plane had booked AJ's flight over and were already at the terminal when I got there. Only problem was they stick to a schedule while TA takes off as soon as they fill the plane. Beat them to Hedo by almost an hour.
Checkin a breeze, its only 1pm so room not ready, no problem. Grabed my giant Slim Jim mug from my bag and headed for Roberts, By 1:30 I'm sitting by the pool with a plate of fries and a jerk burger and a mug of hummingbirds. Ahhhhh life is good!
Resort was still a long way from full and entertainment staff seemed to be keeping a low profile on the nude beach, no body painting,twister,vollyball ect.Truth be told this did give me a chance to try being a sand slug for a change. Hummm this could be habit forming. Just laying in a chair all day except for my daily snorkel trip and trips to the bar. Of course with a 64oz mug you can GREATLY the time wasted walking all the way to the bar. Why I was only drinking 4-5 drinks a day (I think) Repeaters party was good for the spread they put out. I don't know what was on those shrimp but I could make a meal of them.
New Year's Eve was a blast but I was a little disappointed on the lack of slut wear. Being a shy person myself I only wore my formal thong with gloves, bow tie and cane with top hat. Gee the hat was hot. LOL    After the long awaited balloon drop we decided to play a little balloon volleyball in the prude pool. I love water slides but hate bad construction so I'll wait till they add a real support pillar in stead of a couple 2X4s or a spot welded beam.
PJ night was fun but way too close to New Years, Oh well I can sleep during the day on the beach. Found a nice elephant suit that had strange (but wonderful) women grabbing my trunk all night. I AM NOT A MAN; I AM AN ANIMAL!
Thursday night we had a nice cool breeze come in so I turned the air off and opened the window to sleep to the sound of frogs and the wind in the trees,ummmmm
Next morning I woke to the gentle sound of the breeze in the trees, the purr of the LAWN MOWER starting under my window, the soft THUNK,THUNK,THUNK of the guy chopping the branches that fell during the night and in the distance the gentle POUNDING of the jack hammer. I asked about free days for construction and was told that there was no construction going on. Sure enough the jack hammer was just tearing down the old treehouse bar and that's demolition not construction.
Tried a massage on the beach which was so good I had another one the day I left.
Of course just plug in the normal PDAs through out the week. And when you see Agustus ask to see his article on being Employee of the year. He is very proud of it. And I am impressed by Roberts memory, On my last day I talked someone into ordering a jerked burger and Robert commented that it was the first thing I got when I arrived even before I had a room which was true but I didn't expect him to remember that.
Oh well only 4 months till I go back.
