G & LA - 07/00 (WWW2000 Summer)

Our Maiden Voyage to Hedo with the WWW Crew  

We went on a cruise, back in February, and upon returning home, we both decided that we needed another get away within a few months.  We heard of how nice Jamaica is, so we started to plan a trip there.  Swept Away, in Negril, was our destination, and we were just about to book it, when my hubby stumbled upon Denny’s wonderful website.  I started to check out Denny’s website, with caution, and about a month later, we were both hooked.  Now, grant it, being online, reading the message boards, trip reports and joining in the chat room, is one thing.  The actual experience of being a guest at Hedo, is another thing.  We enjoyed participating in Denny’s site and also being a guest at Hedo.  There is no doubt that we experienced the magic of Hedo!  Matter of fact, we are looking forward to many return trips with the WWW crew!  

Ok, so we decided against Swept Away and booked our Hedo trip for October 2000.  After meeting so many wonderful online buddies and emailing with some of the WWW crew, who pledge their alliances to Hedo, we rebooked our trip to go with the summer WWW gang.  And, boy oh boy, are we ever glad that we did!!!  What a wonderful group of people they are!  We had the time of our lives!  

G was all over the whole Hedo thing, from the get go.  And I was so hesitant.  Why?  Well because – Hedo is out of our comfort zone.  We both have never thought of going naked in public, less alone spend a whole week of vacation doing so.  I have had four children, and am not exactly comfortable with my body.  My hubby could care less; he was so ready to jump on the next flight out.  G had me prepare for our trip by drinking a few nights during the weeks and playing in the hot tub nightly.  Just so I could build up a tolerance level for liquor and not embarrass either one of us with some lame antic brought on by to much alcohol.  We also had the opportunity to rendezvous with Harold, in Las Vegas, a Hedo veteran, who was also going to be there for WWW.  After our rendezvous with Harold, we were ready for WWW.  Thanks again Harold, for taking the time to meet up with us in Vegas. 

 

The night we hit LAX, for our red eye flight, was great.  G’s brother drove us to the airport and asked, for the final time, “Which resort are you staying at again?”  We both smiled and said “COUPLES”.  With that, we ran into the terminal and looked around for Dave and Cora, who were on our same flight.  I spotted them instantly and introduced myself.  They are a wonderful couple!  Thanks for making us feel so welcomed!  Our flight was long and we tried to sleep, but to no avail.  We couldn’t wait to get to Hedo and meet the WWW gang.  We took Tim Air, because I get carsick easily, and it was a fun flight. 

 

We arrived early Saturday morning, around 9:30 a.m., and check in went very smooth.    We got our room keys, within minutes and off we went.  Ok, my heart starts pounding and I am nervous again about the whole naked thing.  Two hours later, after eight drinks, unpacking and fun in our room, we were headed out to the nude beach.  On the way, we met Denny and Diane.  If it weren’t for all of the time Denny puts into his wonderful site, we wouldn’t have made the Hedo connection.  Thank you, thank you, and thank you for all that you do!  And Diane thanks for trying to ease my nerves about the whole naked vacation thing.  Big hugs to both of you!  Ok, so the time comes, we walk on the nude beach and find lounge chairs on the beach to sit on.  We decided not to hesitate, and just get naked right away.  G takes his shirt and shorts off with ease, and I dance around, stalling for some more time, to get up the courage to bare all.  G gives me the evil eye and counts to three.  He counts to three again, and I do it and find solace in the lounge chair for about fifteen minutes until Harold is waving us over to meet  some of the crew.  We get up and walk down to the water and meet the neatest people!  We met Craig and Melissa, Hense and Mel, Ro, Boomer and Stephanie, Jeff and Kim, Bob and Annie and other WWW’ers.  It was great to finally meet them and to get acquainted.  Craig was amused at my uneasiness and asked me what I thought of the whole nude thing so far.  Well, I couldn’t tell him because all I was seeing were other’s heads and shoulders.  I couldn’t look beyond head and shoulders until day three.  Then all of the colors of the rainbow appeared.  And how BEAUTIFUL  all of the rainbows were!  Hedo isn’t all hard bodies or perfect 10’s.  It is filled with wonderful people who are easy to talk with and get to know.  The people are truly, the beauty of Hedo.
