Wow, what a trip! This
was our second trip there (but I exclude our very first trip because it was
before the improvements and lasted a paltry 3 days. We started to relax and to
get into the groove and had to leave, so we don't really consider that trip as a
"real" trip. I recommend that you don't even consider going for less than 5
days. From this point forward, knowing what we know now, that trip doesn't even
count) and was perhaps the best trip yet. It's hard, almost impossible to
decide. Last year's trip was the vacation of a lifetime, so for us it is hard to
beleive that we could even come close to having as much fun this time. Having
sustained fun at that level is hard, perhaps impossible, to measure. Both
trip's clearly surpass any other vacation that we have ever had in our 17 years
together. And that's saying alot, because we have had some amazing vacations
together and many more with our children. These trips were on a whole different
level altogether. We were very concerned that returning to the same place this
year would be a disappointment, a big let down, because the previous year was so
unbelievably fun. We usually try to avoid doing the exact same fun things twice,
(same activity but different resort, or port visits etc...is fine) because we
don't want to stain an otherwise nice memory. As it turns out, our fears were
for not. Yes, the facility is pretty much the same, but the people there are so
wonderful, friendly and different. The people that you meet there really make
the difference, so you need not worry about the ol' "been there, done that"
syndrome. Now for the particulars..........as much as can be recalled
anyway........
We flew AJ, and although we were delayed for 2 hours (they informed us at the
gate that they would be 30 minutes delayed, which is translated 2 hours Jamaica
time.) our journey there was much better than last year's trek. Despite that,
all in all, we enjoy taking AJ. The staff is always so friendly, the meal is
good (excellent by airline standards) and their local fruit punch has turned
into a tradition for us. That's when the vacation officially starts, the first
sip of the Jamaican fruit punch.
We know and fully agree with the premise of what happens in Jamaica stays in
Jamaica, so I'll try to be as discreet as possible, and if I leave out some
details or names (or even change the names) that's the reason; either that or
it's simply because of the effects of so much alcohol........but I assure you
it's one of the two...........lol
Jesse & Deb, wow, you guys are Fun. (Note the capital "F"). The times in the hot
tub were side splitting halarious. Without any doubt, you two got us started. So
everything that we did after that first night is all your fault! All that I can
say is that you should be ashamed of yourselves..........."That's DISGUSTING!!"
We (read Jennah) really enjoyed the water jets, thanks again for the
demonstration; the friendly muff diving contest (I still think there should be
some consideration given to 'quality points.' And in case you didn't notice,
since I knew that couldn't beat the record for the longest time, I had shifted
stratigies and decided instead to go for the record regarding the number of
attempts), and how can we forget our search for the "perfect jet" in the hot
tub? That was classic, and a bit erotic I might quickly add at the risk of
sounding too disgusting. Debbie, the shower scene, take 1, was incredible, great
idea. FYI, my only thought in there, I'll have you know, was 'how can I be so
damn clean while thinking so damn dirty?' OK, maybe I entertained other
thoughts.....lol. Jennah enjoyed the antics as much, (or even more if I am to
believe her) than I did. Great idea! And Jesse, I think that all you need is a
tad bit more hip action, and you're a ringer for an Elvis impersonator in Vegas.
That was fun in Veronica's.
Those who saw me that night at the Men of Hedo contest would not believe that I
am normally a shy, reserved person. I'd be wasting my breath. I had never
entered any contests before (and may not ever again) but I did that one night
and Jennah is still laughing two weeks after the event. We were suppose to go
around the dining room dance floor in front of the female judges and dance
suggestively from one judge to the next. Well, I was last, and when my turn
arrived, I was so ready. (I really didn't need the shots from the EC while I was
awaiting my turn to go, trust me) I recall that by the time I was on my 3rd or
4th judge, I had loosened up enough to place one of my legs over a judges
shoulder, at some point another judge grabbed my buttocks and grinded my crotch
into her face, and the next judge removed my shorts all together. I believe that
I then stood back at that point and started making circular motions with Mr.
Hap, things are a bit blurry. And I had forgotten, but Jennah reminded me that I
did all of this with a ping-pong ball in my mouth!?! Go figure. The next that I
remember is that the EC's found my shorts, insisted that I put them on (which I
quickly did) and continue. Looking back, I'm shocked that I did that, can't say
that I had ever even thought of doing something like that, and can guarantee
that I won't do something like that in the future. But at the time, it just felt
right. It's hard to explain, but the place just has a way of letting you let go
in a way that no other place could. And even though it's somewhat embarassing
now, Jennah had such a fantastic time watching me that I wouldn't change a
thing. I think next year will be Jennah's turn to enter a
contest..................lol
We were introduced to "The Rabbit," thanks for sharing Kelly & Kevin. That thing
is the real deal. The times in the cold hot tub and pool were
great.........Kelly, I really enjoyed the Caluya.....I think that if the guy
responsible for casting for Charlies Angels were there, you ladies would easily
replace the currnet Angels (and sell more tickets too). Very very nice. Also,
that was a very interesting water gun (water noodle?) fight. And Becky, what I'd
give just to bounce in front of you just once more (or vice versa :
).........)you all were so much fun. If we should meet up next year, look out.
We'll have to wear name tags because you won't recognize us........we felt so
welcome around you. Jennah is still walking through the house saying "Woo-Woo."
Kevin, doing the alphabets down the slide don't sound like much now, but looking
back we're still laughing over that. Fun fun fun. Oh, and I'd be remiss if I
didn't mention Kelly in her white lingerie and wig. We've finally figured it
out, it was like a much hotter and sexier version of Britney Spears, standing
right in front of us. And another thing, after that piano dance, I am wondering
what your REAL job is.............should you just happen to have any videos of
that, please autograph one and send it our way ASAP, so Jennah can be ready for
next year........that was great! We're so glad that we got to meet you both.
My wife is my best freind, my confidant, my children's mom (a great one at that)
and I consider to be one of the neatest people that I have ever met. Physcially,
I find her absolutely stunning. We went there very much in love. We have a great
marriage, love each other's company, and try to go on a "date" at least once a
week. As the trip progressed, I felt this powerful attractive wonderful feeling
towards her that brought back old feelings that I had a hard time placing. I had
felt this way before, but couldn't quite explain it to myself. (I discounted
simply being aroused, because we had sex, great sex, very frequently throughout
the trip, and this feeling persisted before, during, and even after the sex.)
All I knew is that I really really liked the feeling. Everything that I
mentioned above was a blast, but it was this feeling that I enjoyed more than
everything else combined. I would awake early in the mornings, and just prop
myself up next to her and watch her as she slept. I couldn't remove the smile
from my face and couldn't take my eyes off of her. I like having things figured
out, and it was a bit disturbing that I couldn't quite explain this feeling that
I had inside. I let Jennah know, and fumbled for words to explain it. The
butterflies, the lightheadedness, the overflowing attraction to her, the
constant smile on my face when I'm beside her, at times the fact that I had
absloutely no idea of what was going on around me, nor did I care, while I was
chatting with her, this overall total obsession I had on her, for most of the
trip. It was a very youthful, powerful consuming emotion that I was thoroughly
enjoying. Finally, I figured it out (days after we got back) and then it put an
even larger smile on my face. Put simply, it is the difference between being
in love compared to falling in love. I recalled that was precisely
the same exact feelings that I felt when we first met and were dating. What an
unbelieveably nice feeling. Spending this special time with my "girlfriend" is
truly priceless. Life is great to us, we don't have everything but want for
absolutely nothing. As long as we're together, we're happy. And although we're
deeply in love, this trip has even brought us closer. Had someone tried to tell
me that that could happen, I would never believe it. Impossible. Nothing was
missing in our relationship, we didn't go looking for anything, so this
overwhelming sensation was suprising. Hopefully someone out there can understand
what I'm saying, I'd like to think others have felt the same kind of thing while
being there. Although I wish that I could keep the feeling, I knew that it was
not possible with the stresses of everyday life associated with being a mom &
dad, much less being in business. Hon, it was that very thought, that
realization that I was in the process of losing my girlfriend and that so
surreal in-love feeling that brought the tears in my eye as we were driving
home. I know that you understand, because I saw sadness in your eyes too. Enough
with the mushy, I think I'm gonna throw up. Back to the fun stuff.
I don't want to set the record of the longest trip report ever, so in order to
consolidate I'll be brief..............the nude snorkeling was great, thanks
Mark & Jamie. Funny how fast the other boats from the other resorts cleared out.
Dan & Kim, you guys are great, and don't forget that I get to slather Kim next
time with lotion, Oliver & Jana, (let me pause to catch my breath) thank you so
much for the pleasant memories, (ie: hot tub, shower scene take 2, wet t-shirt
contest etc....) and I am still upset with myself for my German not being what
it should be. We'd like to think that we did our best to strenghten US-European
relations..........Beth, it appears that Dana has used the penis squirt gun
before, he was just too darn good with it. We especially liked it when he missed
the mouth just a little...........you just can't script this stuff. I really
enjoyed being Peter Pan on PJ night, that was a hoot, and a special thanks to
all of you who kept my pan from laying flat. Tracie & JB, even though we weren't
there to see it, we sincerely hope that you enjoyed the "rafts" that we left
behind. We even left a vinyl repair kit with it. Thanks again Kevin & Kelly for
helping us with that. Lydia, I'm not sure which suprises me more, that they
brought over a bowl of butterscotch at dinner, or that you climbed up on the
table. I think that I speak for the entire table when I say "Now that's
dessert!" Butterscotch will just never be the same. Wow. Dewey, thanks for
sharing. Mark & Debra, thanks for the conversations. Especially you Debra, I've
already noticed that I look at cars that pull up beside me differently. True
story. John & Bree, we were glad that we got to meet finally. Our paths crossed
some, but not nearly enough. Funny how the place is, the days seem to just fly
by while the overall week seems like it's months long.And you're never hurried,
or behind, or ahead or stressed. No schedules, timelines, or definate plans
other than getting jerk chicken at 6pm. We met so many other fun and interesting
folks, I'd just like to thank them with a large group thank you hug. The people
we meet really make the place so memorable and fun.
And to a very special couple, Steve & Julie. You two added a dimension to this
trip more than you can ever know. It's worth mentioning that you two were the
only ones to live the entire shower scene trilogy with us. I really look forward
to comparing notes...........personally, I think that scene 3 was the most
climatic, very nice finish. Believe it or not, after everything, we still see
you two with little halos over your heads. You two are such a neat couple. Who
is John Galt anyway??
One final thing. There is a staff member who keeps the nude beach spotless. His
name is Augustus, and he is a card. Anyway, we overheard him saying that he
would really appreciate it if someone would bring him some gloves. Upon our next
trip we sure will, but if someone reads this and is going there before then and
wants to do a very nice thing, could you bring him some gloves? He's a good guy.
Actually, I'd like to get everybody there something, they are all so nice and
quick with a smile.
Still smiling in Florida,
Steve & Jennah
