I've updated my web site with my trip from April! I know I must have posted some sort of trip report here, but this would be the "un-edited" version - along with some photos....

It was fun re-visiting this trip - hope you all enjoy!

Great report.

what a flight....'Moreover, I implored them to ground this guy – he was a walking time bomb – a head case true to the word, maybe even on drugs?'...I hope they do ground the beast!!!

Nice pics as well :)

Thank you, thank you!

Yes - this man was unbelieveable (the flight attendant) and it was really too bad that he is a part of this report BUT he kinda colored my whole trip...and with the kind of year I've been having it's all part of the grand jigsaw puzzle. Glad you guys enjoyed.

Wow Nikki,

Your plane trip was the type of nightmare that pretty much leaves me speechless other than to say, I am so sorry.

I too am so sorry to hear about your Dad. :-(

My first trip to Jamaica came right after my Mom and Dad passed away. I lost the loves of my life and gained a new love. Jamaica has been a healing experience for me over the years.

Your reports are so beautiful and vivid and I feel like I'm right there too. You have such a gift and I thank you for sharing it with us.

I loved the wedding story!!

Best Wishes,

Gail

I'd wish that guy into the cornfield too! One of my favorite Twilight Zones ever!!

Your writing does make one feel like they were there with you..I can see everything so clearly. Thank You!
