At the bequest of a dear friend last weekend I got some well needed R&R at the Royal_Decameron_Club_Caribbean-Runaway_Bay_Jamaica....it was great resting for a change...real rest I mean and at a reasonable US$70 double occupancy and $140 single Occupancy (resident rates) it was easy on the pocket.
We listened to the interpretations of Bob Marley's "One Love" by more than tipsy visitors to the island, we ate fruits and vegetables with the odd piece of pastry here and there, there was no ackee and slat fish though (bummer) but it was fun.
The sun burned brightly in the morning blue sky and the sea breeze was heady in the night as the waves crashed against man made reefs.....it was beautiful. Yes I would have preferred sharing the moment with a red blooded male who could teach me a thing or too as we explored and blessed the quaint cottage without fear of being heard, but there'll always be a next time. Who knows maybe I can find a man I can trust to not make the weekend all about sex, and one who will be strong enough to not let my Evelike character lead him into temptation and ultimate destruction...yeah right. It would have been nice though to sit and watch the sunset with a good bredren in whose arms I could curl up and relax and do one or two tequila shots, and simply exhale.....ah well.
We went to greengrottocavesja.com and learned a little about the WhiteWitch of Rose Hall but nothing compared to the simple chillaxing on the beach. Our stop at the Ultimate Jerk Centre was good too...talk about real Jamaican jerk chicken, not "pan foul" it was delightfully hot and spicy and the bammy and festival hit the spot. Sometimes it pays to vacation in your back yard, there's so much of this beautiful island I've not seen. I am heading back next week and I'll tell you all about it:0)

Glad you had some time to relax and have some fun.
Well deserved R&R. Don't you just hate when tourists "butcher" our beloved Bob Marley songs?
