Montego, Baby Why Don't We Go?

For the Honeymoon, my beautiful wife and I spent six days in Montego Bay, Jamaica. The resort we stayed at was on Doctor's Cave beach which is one of the Top 10 beaches in the world. Think about it - there's thousands of miles of coast line on the planet, and a bunch of people paid by resorts felt that this was a really good one.



Anyway, Jennifer and I went horseback riding on the beach, snorkeling, got thrown off of a Hobie Cat, and climbed up Dunn's River Falls. Somehow, we bought some ugly Jamaican heads from a carver (the heads looked exactly like every other carved piece of wood on the island). The Italian restaurant at the resort was really nice, even if pants were required. The all-you-can-eat buffet for breakfast and lunch wasn't too bad; quantity has a quality all its own.



Also, a bunch of really friendly people really wanted to sell us some oregano. We didn't buy any, because we weren't really planning on cooking. Finally, if I don't hear any more reggae music ever, I'll be just fine.
