Honeymooning

Ahhhh the honeymoon :) Our honeymoon was beyond amazing, I could not have asked for a better time together in a better place.  We choose to go to Sandels Negril (which is in Jamaica, about an hour from Montego Bay).  It was gorgeous every day; about 85 degrees and sunny.  We had perfect weather, not a single day of clouds or rain.  We truly lucked out.  The people there are so friendly and always happy.  And, they always called us Mr. and Mrs. Price which was a nice little touch :) It sounds so good to hear them call me Mrs. Price or to call Chris my husband.  We were there for a total of 8 days and 9 nights, which normally seems like a long time, but it was not long enough.  Neither of us wanted to return home. 

We had an amazing room.  It was one of their top rated rooms, called the swim up lagoon.  And it literally has a pool that you open your doors right to and on the other side of the pool is the beach.  Now, since we were in one of their top rooms, our section of the beach was more secluded than the rest of the resort, which I loved.  We were also assigned a Butler; another wonderful perk.  He set up our chairs, umbrellas and a cooler with drinks for us on the beach every morning. He also took care of all our dinner plans and brought us whatever we needed while we were on the beach.  We are  not used to this fact and the bar was only about 70 feet from our chairs so we tended to get up and get our own drinks...we learned very quickly they get offened if you don't use their services :) In fact, if they haven't heard from you in a couple hours, they call just to make sure there is nothing you need! Also, they would decorate our room every couple nights while we were out; make it nice and romantic for us for when we got back to our room.  They were amazing, so nice and friendly.  That was definitely a major perk of our vacation and was well worth the money spent!

Another pretty cool thing that we saw every day was sting rays, they swam right up to the shore every morning between 1030 and 1130.  They didn't bother anybody and no one bothered them.  It was amazing to see them so close.  They are beautiful animals! The sunsets there are simply breath taking every night.  They are gorgeous, there is no other word for it other than gorgeous. Every night they are different with amazing colors and the view of the sun setting is awesome! Even the one night when it was a little cloudy during the sun set it was gorgeous.
The view from our room....absolutely breath taking and very private; which was perfect for us!
Our beach chairs all set up for us for a day of relaxing in the Jamaican sun!

Our room decorated all romantic for us one day after we got back from an excursion :) What a perfect way to spend the evening!


Sting Rays!



I'll post more tomorrow about our excursions that we did while we were there!! Hope you enjoyed!
