Jamaica Day 1 : Samsara Resort!

Today. Was. Awesome :)

We woke up to the sounds of the morning ocean tide and a few people already out enjoying the water. We dressed for the day, walked out our door, down the stairs and into the restaurant, where both of the other couples we met yesterday were stirring and getting ready to go for the day as well.

The shuttle came to pick us up around 10am. We, along with Cassie & Shayne and Tara & Jordan rode with a few other people from Legends to Samsara Resort, which was just a 10-minute drive from Legends.

samsara!

We arrived there, unloaded and immediately made ourselves at home along the cliff side. Well, mini cliffs, really... but still, cliffs.

And that meant... CLIFF JUMPING! :D
Another couple, Nate & Audrianna, from Pittsburgh were along for the day as well, and the group of us made a great time out of cliffs.

We didn't have time today, but it's going on my list of things to possibly explore in the event we revisit Negril - The Dive Shop!

monday funday at samsara with our new friends!

The day at Samsara wound down, and soon we were back at Legends, for a late afternoon meeting with our travel agency representative. She proved to be immensely helpful in explaining our different excursion options through the resort and agency, and we all left with some solid ideas of what we wanted to do for the week.

Tomorrow, we're planning to check out some local scenery, and possibly Rick's Café, which is apparently rated one of the best bars in the world. Cassie & Shayne will be out horseback riding; we've made plans so far with Tara & Jordan to make a dinner trip to Rick's. We learned from some of the locals today that there is a cliff worth jumping there at Rick's, and I have every intention of giving that a shot, too. :)

For now, it's another Bob Marley from the bar for me, please!

Yah Mon!
