Trip Report: July 26-August 3, 2008

This was our fifth time to Hedo II. We look forward to this trip every year and it flies by so fast! Sunday went by with lightening speed. Don’t remember it at all, but my friends have pictures to prove I was there. I don’t think the ‘shot’ idea was a good one! Now on to the report…

 

Travel: Flew Air Jamaica from Philadelphia. No problems going down. We were at the resort by noon and in the pool by 12:30! Coming home was a nightmare! Stood in line at the airport for over an hour! There was no rhyme or reason to how they moved people into lines. The plane was delayed for the third year in a row – this time by 2 hours (with NO explanation). The planes were not Air Jamaican planes. No air, no movies, blankets and pillows were only for first class passengers! No more Air Ja-maybe for us!!

 

Room: Occupancy was low, so we were put in an Ocean View Nude room #2115. Air conditioner was great! Towels were plentiful. One night we had a crab in our room. Near the end of vacation, our room reeked of smoke, and we aren’t smokers.

 

Food: Ate at Pastafaris three nights – all delicious. Evelyn is a sweetheart!! Munasan was also good. Main dining hall was great for breakfast and lunch. Dinners were just average. Nothing new! We enjoyed the new cappuccino machine! VERY disappointed in the availability of mango! They only had it two days!

 

Activities: Non-existent! I felt like the ECs were really burnt out this week and hardly showed up during the day. Lots of new faces and very little excitement. They rarely held to the schedule. Boci Ball, Trivia, and ring toss were the only games at the nude pool. They are giving points for participation but keeping track on pieces of paper. Most of our points were lost. You need 60 points for a bottle of rum. They need a better system! The nightly entertainment was good and bad. Winston was there for the first few nights, then Sunshine and Sarge took over. Mega was also good. No toga night to speak of because there were no sheets left in the rooms. One big disappointment was the snorkeling. You can not go nude anymore. L We did do the Cat Cruise again and that was fun.

It was another fabulous, hysterical year. We were loud in our corner but we had a blast! I hope we didn’t offend anyone. See you all next year! Same time – same place!
