Jamaica - Day 1 (May 16, 2005)
I stayed up late last night to pack and stuff. Then this morning I got online and said hi to a few people, and off to the bank to get some cash for the trip. My parents came over at 10am to take us to the airport. The check-in line at AA's counter was horrendously long. We couldn't do curbside check-in 'cuz we were flying international. Darn. Anyway, we made it in plenty of time...got something to eat, and found Paul when he arrived.
Most of the rest of the plane rides were somewhat uneventful, except for the big fat guy that was sitting next to Greg on the Miami to Montego Bay flight. The guy had this grocery bag full of snacks on his lap and proceeded to eat all of it throughout the flight (did I mention that he was fat?). At one point, he elbowed Greg while Greg was taking a sip of his wine...wine went everywhere (thank goodness it was white wine). I swear, airlines need to enforce the 2-seat rule for people who obviously aren't able to fit in 1 seat. Geez. Anyway, the flight attendent was really nice and brought Greg another $5 bottle of wine.
Immigration at Montego Bay took forever. We were lucky too that we arrived shortly before another flight did, and got to the lines first. After immigration and customs, we were shuffled off to the Couples lounge, where we were shuffled off to this teeny bus that transported us to the resort. There wasn't much traffic (although there were plenty of crazy drivers), and our driver was a great tour guide. It was pretty fun. We got to Couples Swept Away (CSA) at about 10pm. Greg's Dad and Laura were up there waiting for us. :o) We got all checked in, and had a quick dinner on the beach at the grill...and called it a night. :o)
