Travel Patti and her traveling companion Chickie Enjoy Jamaica

I recently returned from my 25th trip to Jamaica. Obviously, I really like the destination. I have personally stayed at several of the resorts, and I find the Jamaican people to be very warm and friendly. This trip, I stayed at Couples Ocho Rios. One of the things that you need to know about Jamaica, is that everyone is on their own time. They call it "soon come", so don't expect everything to be quick over there. That is one of the charms of the island. It forces you to relax.

I also toured Half Moon Resort, and was very impressed by the elegance it offers. It has a distinctly European feeling to it, with lots of antiques, marble floors, beautiful grounds, and great restaurants. For those people who like fine dining, I highly recommend this resort. It also has a wonderful golf course.

The last part of my trip was spent in one of my very favorite resorts - Sandals Montego Bay. It was a wonderful part of the trip, because I got to witness several weddings at Sandals. Such a beautiful place to get married in with the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea in the background, and a flower decorated gazebo for the ceremony. You can also have an optional steel drum band playing in the background. Very romantic. For more information on different Jamaica resorts, look at thebigday.com. They offer many different options.

My next entry will show pictures of my traveling companion, which I will keep as a surprise until then.
