Keep the Honeymoon going!

We are finally home safe after a wonderful honeymoon in NYC and Jamaica! I wish that we could be on holiday forever but sadly its back to reality soon.

I am setting a goal for myself though that I can hold onto the carefree fun feelings that we had during the Honeymoon through our daily lives.

Thanks everyone for reading and stay tuned for the Adventures of Linds and Dave: Year One!

Airport follies

The airport went okay. For some reason, and I would need clarification, we only saw a photo of the Premier in the Arrivals Hall... I thought they had the Queen too at one point, but I could be wrong.

Anyway, there are no taxis out here. Guess they all took their passengers and split.

So it's. Bit of bedlam here as we just saw one cabbie choose to 'only' go to South Shore Road. Seemed that taxis get to pick and choose passengers - which is pretty untidy.

Anyway soon afterwards a cabbie came and is taking us and another person to separate places. Apparently there's a non-metered rate in place in situations where taxis have to double or triple up. Which sounds like a good compromise for all parties. Props to whichever bodies set that scheme up.

We're tired and I guess the honeymoon is now officially over. Thanks to you guys who read along with Lindsey and I as we tried to cover our vacation. For Facebook members, photos may go up of parts of the vacation. We may try to get our pix up (what few there are) on this site itself.

Yay, Bermuda.

Landed

Now of course the ol' immigration and customs fun. Have they changed the procedures again? Will people get flustered? Stick around and find out in the next episode!

Boarding

Whew. 12 hours after leaving the resort in Jamaica and we're finally getting on the plane headed for Bermie.

Hopefully the kids on board that have managed to get seated around us will be well-behaved and we can rest a bit on this plane. Need some good airline karma this evening...

Miami airport

I also pointed out to Dave that this is the first trip where we will be returning to the same home!

I feel that it is my duty to remind him and point out stuff cause say that he did put beds plural then someone might say "hmm do they sleep in seperate beds?" And then who knows what will be said from there!

Anyway my face is itchy again along with my arms at least my eyes aren't swollen! We decided to get passes to the admirals club since we have 5 hours to kill! The receptionist was very nice and gave us two for the price of one. But really why is it that when I am late or miss a flight I am practically crucified by the airlines but these punks only say now leaving at whatever time...no explanation nothing!
Thank goodness I am not travelling with kids cause this would have been brutal!

Oh well soon home! I can't wait to say hello to the customs agents!

Delayed again

The flight just got further delayed. Who's sabotaging the last leg of this vacation? Shoot we may just try to buy a pass to the Admiral's Club at this rate.

Sign that either my wit is failing or that Jamaicans don't get humour:

In Montego Bay airport I'm at the gate and there's a sandwich shop. I ask the person about the prices. She says the chicken sandwich is 7.50. The turkey one is 9.00. She says the egg sandwich is 5.53.

I'm all, what's with the exact amount thing. So I say, "the price of that is very precise, eh?", smiling as I say it.

With a totally straight face she responds with, "that's because it is an egg sandwich", totally missing the humour. So I look at her a bit to see if she got the joke, no reaction. So I just mutter a thanks and slink away.

But really, why not charge 5.75 or something simple? Oh and I didn't buy any sandwich in the end.

Drawing to a close

Headed home now... An early flight to Miami, but now are waiting in the airport as the Bermuda leg has been delayed, apparently. Which really sucks. We're just trying to get home and sleep in our own bed.

Linds just pointed out that it's 'bed', singular, not plural, so I just changed the last paragraph. My wife is quick to point out some of the omissions, huh?

Airport chairs aren't comfortable at all either. And the forced armrests means you can't lie down either... Which makes sense in most cases but if we're stuck here for a few hours... Booo.
