Yea Mon

Greetings from Jamaica!

Just over a week ago we landed in the Carribean for a well deserved holiday.

All did not begin smoothly though. Our original destination was the Holiday Inn Montego Bay and let's just say that this place looked a whole lot lot better on its website than in the flesh. Oh dear. There were many issues and disappointments that Ian and I shared about the place but the main thing was cleanliness. We're not OCD by any stretch of the imagination but I was sure our supply of Imodium was not going to last long if we stayed around.

After our first night in a tinsy room, the kids sharing a small sofa bed (the mattress had to be changed) that Luke fell out of twice and one dose of Imodium later Ian was on the phone doing his stuff. By late morning we were out of there, in a taxi and heading to our new destination for just a few $$ more. The thing is, this holiday will be our only one as a complete family this year and when you've worked tremendously hard and moved trans globe you really do want your holiday to live up to it's expectation and be a well deserved relaxing break.

So now it is! Here we are http://www.bahiaprincipe.com one week already down and one more to go, it's lovely and no-one has needed a single dose of Imodium.

Now, onto more pressing matters...where to go beach or pool? Yea Mon!
