Jamaica: Day 3

Monday, June 9th, 2008
Wedding Day!

Wait, wait, not so fast.

First, we walked next door to Jackie’s on the Reef –

for a hot stone massage. Check it out, these are my feet, below –

I was totally naked in that little hut, just a few yards from the ocean, while I nice Jamaican lady gave me the rubdown [...]

Jamaica: Day 2

Friday, May 30th, 2008

Hey, know what I forgot to tell you in my first day Jamaica round-up? What actually happened. Namely, we traveled a lot, were delayed a lot, and I did something very stupid.

Apparently, every flight AirJamaica gets off the ground is delayed. After spending some time on the island, this is NO SURPRISE AT ALL, but [...]

Just A Few Minutes Ago

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

I’m headed home after a beach workout, and my friend Kelly’s Jeep is right in front of me on A1A. We both pull to a stop at a red light and she leans out of her window, phone in hand, mid-text, and yells back at me, “How do you spell ‘Jai-Alai’?!”

I shouted back, “J-A-I-SPACE-A-L-A-I!” and [...]

Jamaica: Day 1

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

I’m back now, but I’ll try to upload a day’s worth of photos every day or so until the whole set is up. There are a LOT of photos – Jamaica was stunning and it was my sister’s wedding, after all.

Set so far is here.

Highlights:

My very first airport sign! Note the small print.

My first meal [...]

Jamaica is beautiful. The Westender Inn is Paradise.

Even a delayed flight and hours of traffic, which caused yesterday’s “mid-afternoon arrival” to stretch late into the night, can’t cramp how wonderful this trip is already. We met up with everyone who had arrived at 3 Dives for jerk chicken, beans and rice seasoned with coconut milk, [...]

Vancouver Photos, Finally

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Earlier today, while Matt and I were getting our haircut, I overheard him say to his stylist, “Well, a LOT of planets are bigger than Earth, actually.”

Do boys to the haircut small talk WAY differently, or what?

Finally, photos from last week’s trip to Vancouver. Enjoy. Comment! It’s good for my self-esteem.

Vancouver: Days 3 & 4

Monday, May 19th, 2008

I did end up going backwards into Gastown, because I called Matt immediately after I left the net cafe and he said he wasn’t ready to go yet. I was surprised at how touristy it was – it reminded me a little of parts of Key West, in an alternate universe. Once I’d done a [...]
