Its Jamaica so beck and call is a stretch!  They do respond quite quickly when you stick that flag into the sand though!  Couples last year was our first flag service as well but I could get used to it.  The really cool thing is they dont step over any sandbags when they bring the drinks!:confused:

:roflmao:If they're sandbagging the beach, you might want to move your chair back from the water just a wee bit.

Blog update-July 4th, 2008:proud:

 

As of this morning TW still has not begin to pack.  All dry cleaning is in staging area 3 and ready to roll!

DD arrived in Lima, Peru last night and DS will leave for North Carolina on Monday Via his Grandmother.  TW and I will Stay in Atlanta overnight on Sunday and hopefully be in Negril for lunch.  We like to call Couples Adult Summer camp.  All things seem to shaping up for a great week.  It looks like  Tropical Storm Bertha will miss Jamaica by a long way.

:popcorn:

 

Wish everyone reading this could come with us but hopefully everyone will join us in Mexico in May 2010.  Please dont allow Dawson being a part of that trip keep you from comming.

Well, I'm one of those that wish we could go too! Adult Summer Camp is just what I need right now. I feel like I'm raising 3 kids and I only gave birth to 2! Mexico next year is probably out for us too, but not because of dawson! :big grin:

One of the coolist activities at Couples is the Wednesday night bonfire.   They set up loungers with blankets on the beach, light a huge bonfire with an excellent guitarist and singer playing mellow music in the background. 

It is one of the most relaxing evenings I have ever spent!:cloudnine:

Thanks Srutko,

We have been blessed over the past few years or so to have hardly a drop of rain on any of our tropical vacations.  If it does decide to try and wash us out this time I am sure we can figure out how to stay occupied in our little Jamaican piece of paradise.


 Damn,  Now you have me thinking about praying for rain!:shock:

PRE BLOG UPDATE


We have moved from stage 3 to stage 2 in our packing.  All passports, electronics, dive stuff and Victoria Secret items:shock: (before anyone posts it, for TW to wear not me) has been moved to the staging area.  The suitcases are in place and open.


Everything should be packed today.  We will leave for Atlanta sometime in the Early afternoon tomorrow staying at one of the Airport hotels.  We should be in Negril for lunch on Monday.:big grin:  We will be floating like the pic above shortly after that.


Be prepared for some National Lampoons Couples Vacation moments as it always seems to be the case for us!:confused::confused:
