The Honeymoon: JAMAICA!!!

Sunday May 21 - Thursday May 25, 2006

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Sandals Montego Bay in Jamaica. Below are some of the pictures we took while we were there. Luckily the resort had photographers all over the place taking pictures every day, so we were able to get some of us together too. Maybe when I scan them, I will add them in as well.


The entryway to the resort

The view from our balcony...


Our room...

Julie at the pool with a drink....floating to the swim up bar...


Julie's first cigar ever - a cuban!

Den and his cuban cigar..

These birds were around the resort but in cages - they didn't talk but they sure were pretty!

Julie before going to dinner at the Thai Restaurant at Sandals Royal Carribbean - you can see the restaurant behind Julie in this picture. It was on a private isalnd. We had to get there by boat.

We took a bus to Ocho Rios for the day to Dolphin Cove where we got to swim with the dolphins. Our dolphins Lucy and Ziggy were super friendly and very cute.

Here we are at Dolphin Cove.


We bought this painting at an art auction at our resort. It is a painting of a Great House in Jamaica and it was painted by a Jamaican artist named Heather Sutherland Wade. She is from Kingston Jamaica and studied art in Canada. We can't wait to get it and hang it in our new house.


And of course, you can't go to Jamaica without getting your hair braided!!!


Here are some of the restaurants at the resort. On the left are 2 of them. Upstairs is Cuciano Romano which is a great Italian restaurant and downstairs is the Orleander Room which is very formal. On the right in the yellow building is the Bayside Restaurant which is open all day and has a wonderful breakast buffet. You can eat inside or outside.


A beautiful sunset from our balcony. You can see the pergola down there where several couples were married each day. There were on average 5 weddings a day throughout the resort.


Den and Julie before dinner on our last night.

What a yummy dessert! Here is the chocolate mouse we had for dinner. They sure do put a lot of effort into the presentation!

When we came back to our room, this little guy was in our sink. Don't worry, we safely returned the lizard to the outdoors.


Here are some of the little sailboats at the resort. We went for a ride on one and you wouldn't believe how fast they go!

And here are some of the paddleboats we took out.

We don't have pictures of everything, but we also went snorkeling, spent a lot of time at the beach, went shopping into town, and really took advantage of the all-inclusive meals and bar! We can't wait to go back and we highly recommend Sandals and Jamaica to anyone! Some of the staff members there were the friendliest people we ever met. They really do everything to make your stay wonderful.
