Trip Report
Cheryl & Tom WWW Winter, 5-15 December 2002
I came up with an idea for a different kind of trip report, but after reading Jakes I hope this is not too cheesy. Please bear with me while I try and entertain you.
As most of you know, we work in Greenland. After 13 weeks straight of work, we really needed this vacation. Tom left Greenland a week before I did, and I met him in Georgia for Thanksgiving. We then went to my place in Arizona, stayed there for 4 days, went to Hedo for 10 nights, and then went back to my place for 3 nights. Finally, we went our separate ways at Tucson airport with him going back to Greenland and I to California to spend the Christmas holidays with my family. Lucky for me, on one of my numerous flights (I logged over 13,000 on Delta this month), I was seated next to an interesting gal. She is a free-lance writer named Iwanna B. Nekkid and wanted to write a story for a paper called Nudie News. Hey, I didnt have the energy to write my own trip report, so I figured Id let Iwanna do it for me. After conducting her interview with me, she gave me a copy of her story..
IBN: Cher, was this your first trip with the WWW?
Cher: No, this was my 2nd with the Winter group, Toms virgin trip with the WWW, but we both were there this past April.
IBN: How was your flight to Jamaica?
Cher: It was awful! We checked into Tucson for our flight and found out that there was NO FLIGHT from Atlanta to Jamaica that day. Talk about upset. I was fit to be tied. We had to spend the night in Atlanta and our trip was pushed back 1 day. At least we still spent 10 nights at Hedo, but we werent prepared for that night in Atlanta. The bad storm came through and we had no jackets, sweatshirts or anything. I think that is where I caught a cold.
IBN: But you did finally make it. Did you take the bus or fly?
Cher: We were going to take the bus, but since we were delayed 24 hours, we wanted to get there as soon as possible. A guy from New Airlink Jamaica said they would get us there ASAP and he was right. We were at Hedos front desk a hour after we got out of customs.
IBN: Anything unusual happen when you first arrived?
Cher: Well, the first person we saw was Storm. I thought he was supposed to be there the day before, but he had just gotten in. He was a total virgin and was really happy to see me. I called out his name, and rushed up to give him a welcome hug. It was a good thing that he posted his pic on Dennys board as he looked exactly like it. He even gave Tom a beer. What a nice guy!
IBN: How was check in and where did you stay?
Cher: Check in was a breeze. We had reservations for Nude Oceanview and got Room 2171. We were really happy with that, as I did not want to be on the second floor. Im not into climbing stairs when Im drunk. Anyways, it seems that each time I go to Hedo, I get closer and closer to the hot tub. Our room looked really nice with a towel folded fancy on the bed with a fresh flower in it. Our maid took care of us the whole trip. She was a sweetheart. She even picked up after me!
IBN: Sodid you immediately get naked and go to the pool?
Cher: You bet we did. After our delay, we were more than anxious to see the friends we were supposed to meet the day before. Of course, we were ready with our 32oz mugs, orange WWW hats, and towels. And we werent disappointed. There were quiet a few folks there that had showed up a few days before the rest of the gang and it was so good to see everyone. I think Tom was a little overwhelmed meeting everyone for the first time, but he did really well at remembering everyones names. I was surprised at the number of people who were looking for us. People we had never talked to knew who we were and were interested on our lives in Greenland. I guess that does make for a great ice-breaker. pun intendedJ
IBN: Ok, inquiring minds want to knowdo you have any information about the local ganja that is available at Hedo?
Cher: Well, it seems that it is readily available and reasonably priced. Ganja was going for $20 for an 18-inch long bud. It was damp and not too seedy and all you needed was 3 hits for a good buzz. The smell of ganja was everywhere that week.
IBN: How was the WWW Welcome party?
Cher: It was excellent! We brought the Christmas presents for the local school kids. The stage was absolutely loaded with gifts. I heard that our group of 230+ donated over 500 gifts. It was enough for 3 schools and the Hedo staffs children to each receive a present for Christmas. I think our participation for this was the best part of the trip. Tom and I really had a great time shopping for the kids. We brought 11 gifts and a bunch of stuff for the stocking stuffers. He even suggested we get the kids toothbrushes to combat all the sugar from the candy we bought.
IBN: Stocking stuffers? Christmas presents? I thought this group was on a vacation to do crazy stuff and be wild for a week! Whats with the charity?
Cher: Iwanna, this group of people is very special. We truly enjoy giving back to the local community. I know that if we could, we would do more. The folks that go in the summer donate school supplies and the winter folks make sure the little kids have a Christmas. Anyways, 9 of us ladies got together and made up 75 stockings for the kids. They were packed with candy, pencils, toys, stuffed animals, and cars for boys and hair stuff for the girls. Of course, the kids all got toothbrushes too J
IBN: Anything else happen at the welcome party?
Cher: A couple won 3 or 4 free days (I cant remember how many but I sure wish it was us!) and Denny announced the Virgin Initiation Rites would be held in the hot tub after the party.
IBN: Virgin initiation rites! Im glad I wasnt there for that! Those folks must have been scared. Who thought of such a thing and what all did it entail?
Cher: Well, I will admit it. it was my idea. I privately emailed some of my sisters in crime otherwise known as FILPs (Friends in Low Places) and we decided to do body shots. I brought the booze down and Hazel brought the cups for the shots. Even Tom didnt know what we had planned. I mixed up a pitcher of Carrot Cake, which is a shot we drink up at Thule, Greenland. Its a shot of Baileys, shot of Buttershots, and a splash of Hot Damn. We divided the hot tub into 2 groups. virgins and veterans. The virgins got a shot and had to pour it on someone and lick it off.
IBN: What about the single guys? What were they supposed to do?
Cher: I didnt want anyone to feel left out, so I volunteered to let them do their shots off me. Hey. what are friends for? I didnt want to scare the virgins and have them do something outrageous. Also, a lot of them read Dennys site and there were threads on the board about some of the fun games that we play. Also a lot of people had never done a body shot and I felt that it is a Hedo thing to do. Also, why slurp icky booze off someone when you can lick off something that tastes good?
IBN: Sounds like fun! Did everyone do this? HmmmI would think that it would start some of the infamous games the nude hot tub is known for.
Cher: Actually, as far as I know, only 1 person did not participate for whatever reason. As for starting something in the hot tub, it didnt have that effect at all. Im sure there were some folks who were disappointed in the lack of PDAs and PDPs. I know I was. All I can say is they should have been there last year! It was a wild time for sure.
IBN: Did you do the Magical Mystery Tour? If so, how was it?
Cher: We had a great time. We were on Partymons bus. Our first stop was Margarittaville. The security cops there were not very friendly and said they were calling the police as some of our group was nekkid and jumping on the trampoline there. Management did nothing to support us and I have a feeling we will not be going back there next year. We went to a shopping center to buy souvenirs, then off to Ricks Caf for the sunset and to watch some cliff diving. The drinks there are expensive, but the scenery and sunset is beautiful. On our way back, we stopped at Jennys for brownies. Brownies sold for $10 a piece and are very potent. If youve been smoking the local weed for a few days, then you can safely eat of a brownie and get wasted. You will be able to walk, talk, and function. We did play a strip game on our way back. The last person to get nekkid got a lap dance from me. We all walked into Hedo nekkid, except for Rupes bus of folks. They were all wearing towels about being Lucky Bastards.
IBN: Ok, so we know that the brownies are good to eat. What about the rest of the meals at Hedo?
Cher: The food was great! We ate at Munihanas a few times and also Pastafaris. We never did dinner at the Scotch Bonnet. I guess well save that for next time. Tuesday night was Lobster night. We were served 2 tails split and it was all you can eat. It was fabulous. Also, the local fishermen sell lobster by Roberts Grill. You can buy those for $5 for a small one and $10 for the larger ones. We bought 4 large ones and gave Robert $10 for grilling them for us. It was excellent!
IBN: Did you ever go off resort for dinner? If so, where did you go?
Cher: A group of 21 of us went to The Rock House instead of participating in Toga night. The restaurant did an excellent job, food was great and the group was a lot of fun.
IBN: You didnt do Toga Night? Dont tell me you didnt do PJ night either!
Cher: Tom and I would not miss PJ night for anything. This year we cross-dressed. He wore my black see-through nightie with a thong and I wore mens black boxers, short black robe, and a large cigar between my teeth. A dear friend said that I was missing a key accessory to my outfit and lent me her purple strap on. I was one sexy lady that night. I even got a blowjob. Dont even ask by whom, as what goes on at Hedo, stays there.
IBN: What else did you do that you CAN tell me about?
Cher: Well, Tom and I did a lot of nothing. We still have yet to go down the waterslide. We didnt make either of the catamaran cruises either. We pretty much vegged out and relaxed for this vacation. We did have an unexpected guest one night. Tom said a crab was in our room. I thought he was high and so did the front desk when he called them to get it out. After 10 minutes, I suggested he get a beach towel to catch it. I was shocked to see the size of that blue crab! It was as big as the Dungeness crabs they sell at the grocery store. He did manage to get it out of the window, but it hung on the outside looking in for quite a while. It sure did make for a great story. And to think, I thought the brownies had something to do with it.
IBN: You mean you did nothing for 10 days?
Cher: Actually, Tom did give plenty of massages to the ladies in the nude pool. He uses textured massage gloves and different oils. I know he had a good time. I did help by pouring oil, serving drinks, passing joints and finding victims for him. Also folks have asked where the gloves can be purchased. Weve seen them at WalMart and a website www.ebubbles.com in case anyone wants to do this at home. One guy thought it was a great racket that Tom had goingmassaging nekkid women all over. So, for other guys planning on a trip to Hedo, make sure and pack some gloves and oil J But, in all honesty, I talked with old friends, met new friends and had a great time. I can also say that I got zero HedoBucks. Like I said, I did nothing this entire trip. I think sand gravity had a hold of me.
IBN: Ive heard about the single guys that go there. Are they really that bad?
Cher: I think the single guys are given a bad rap. Last winter I went as a single lady and made great friends with the single guys that go with the Winter group. They were back again along with some new ones. Even though I was with my boyfriend and a bunch of other couples, we also welcomed our single guys. They went to dinner with us, hung out at the pool with us and were made to feel like part of the group. Of course, with a group this large, there are groups among the groups. The group of friends that we hung out with talks to everyone and welcomes new folks in. In fact, we get together during the year and single guys go to the get togethers.
IBN: Sounds like one, big happy family. Are you sure that singles are really included?
Cher: Yes, they are. We feel that the more, the merrier. We like to have fun and this group sure knows how to do it.
IBN: So, you said you got a cold? Did you get what is called the Hedo Crud?
Cher: Not this year. We brought Lysol and sprayed the A/C every day. We turned off the A/C at night. We also took vitamin C and Zinc everyday. We both came down with a cold, but I think that was from spending the night in Atlanta freezing to death.
IBN: So, are you planning on going back?
Cher: You bet. Tom and I wouldnt miss it for the world. At least our vacation schedule allows us to make the WWW Winter trip. I wish we could go more often, but once a year is better than none. Also, I really do enjoy the giving spirit of this group of people. I hope we can get together sometime before the next trip. Until then, I have to get my fix reading and posting on Dennys board and emailing with the great friends that I have already made. Iwanna, maybe you should consider going next winter? I know a few single guys that would love to meet you!
IBN: Thanks, Cher. I will definitely have to think about that.
Cher: Just fire me an email and Ill tell you all the reasons why you should go. It will be a trip you will never forget. Youll make friends for life that is for sure.
Hugs and Kisses~
