Midweek is here and the party is in full swing! Today a group of us went up to Y.S falls to spend some time in Jamaican Rainforest and explore it’s many waterfalls, and we just got back! The trip was only $40 and left at 9AM and came back at 4PM. No worries about the early morning meeting though. Juta Tours met us at Tamboo and drove us up there, so all we had to do was show up, and relax once we got in the car. Once there you actually get a good chance to see much of the green and tropical property on the tractor ride up to the park area. While there the group swam in every pool imaginable, jumped off rope swings suspended from trees and left behind all the worries of home. Many thought it was a nice way to take a break from the beach and the heat, and all agreed that Jamaica was definitely the place they want to come back to next year. Watch for pictures to be posted as soon as we can download them! Tonight we are headed out to Margaritaville for Mardi Gras, but at the beach right now, it looks like the party has already started. When we returned from Y.S. we were greeted with the words “chug, chug, chug,chug” as the beer chugging contest was going on down beachfront! I’m going to run out and go join the party!
P.S. Today was the day that several of the girls discovered patties for the first time, and I think they are hooked. They missed breakfast so we grabbed some of the meat filled pastries,that are fried, at the small food shop up by the falls. I even saw some taking pictures, posing with their patties.
