No problem, mon

Matt and I got back about 9pm Tues. night from Montego Bay, Jamaica.  We had an absolute blast on our get-away.  Our flight left last Tuesday morning at 6am from RDU.  So we woke up about 3:30 in the morning to get ready and head to the airport.  When we got to Jamaica around 12:30 or so in the afternoon we were pretty tired...But not too tired to grab a Red Stipe from the fully-stocked fridge in our room. Check out this amazingly blurry photo that we managed to take of ourselves.  (I love how excited we look.  You'd think we'd never seen a beer before.  But it was RED STRIPE.  In our fridge.  And we were in JAMAICA!!)

 We then headed out to the pool...

Here's the swim-up bar.  Very convenient.
And a lovely photo of my feet and the resort's greenery:
 And later (maybe the next day?) we ventured off the resort to explore Montego Bay.  We took a cab to downtown Montego Bay and had some drinks at Margaritaville.  Check out the water trampolines for people to use during the day:
 That was a view from the water front side and here's a view of the other bars and stores from the street side.
The sunset was pretty cool.  Man I wish I was back there right now...(sigh).
 

And, a picture of us hanging out at one of the bars at the resort. 
And another picture of the lovely couple for your viewing pleasure...

Here's a beach view of the resort during sunset one night:

And our last night we went back to the downtown area for dinner and drinks.  It just so happened to also be Valentine's Day as well.  I'd say it is probably hands down one of the best Valentine's Day gifts I've ever gotten...(Can we do this every year, Matt???)  :)


 Maybe if I get him a drink like this before asking him next year, he'll take me back??
