A smattering of sights I thought worthy of a photo. The beautiful hotel pictures are of Moon Dance, where we enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and gorgeous grounds. There were fishermen on the cliffs by this resort. Even though we didn't stay there the staff was very welcoming.
One day we walked for miles - Jamaican "miles"! We kept asking how far the Westender Hotel was, continually getting the answer that it was just a ways down the road. After miles of walking, in the hot sun, we were running out of steam. It's a sign of respect for people passing to ask if you were alright. As one young man was passing, on a motorscooter, asking if we were alright-I yelled, "NO." He turned around to see what was wrong. We told him we just couldn't walk anymore. Now, his motorscooter was quite small---but he fit us
on, by moving WAY to the front of it and off we went another mile down the road! It was a little scary with MaryLynne's legs sticking out, holes in the road, and me yelling, "Go slow please!" We made it to the Westender and found out, Ryan, our kind motorscooter driver, was Head of Security at the hotel. We did not get a picture of the three of us on the scooter--probably not a pretty picture!

A FANTASTIC TRIP --- CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK!
