Back In Jamaica, Mon

Greetings from Negril my Travelers! We’ve been here 7 days and time is almost up. What can I say? Other than it’s been one beautiful experience for me. After traveling here for over 35 years and actually living here for 3 years; I must say it’s just like my first time. We did our Covid test 3 days before leaving the states, got our Travel Authorization within 7 days of leaving, most of us did the VIP ATTRACTIONS arrival and were ushered through Immigration and Customs and then on to the Lounge where we recharged ourselves, our devices, had snacks and drinks while waiting for others in our group.
The safety protocols in place at the airport, here in Negril hotels, shops & restaurants are quite impressive: masked up and mandatory hand sanitizing upon entry.
Tree House upgrades to the rooms are amazing. Gail and her hard-working staff have done a remarkable job. Our group dwindled down to 24 this trip with so many apprehensive about traveling this year but 2022 has been named the Reunion Tour and I’m happy to say rooms and suites are going like hot cakes. One will be lucky to get any room. It will definitely be a Tree House Take Over. I’m creating this blog on my phone, something I never do but I’m having difficulty with my IPad. Hopefully I can send pictures later.
Our gospel brunch was uplifting with the live band and the Bay Area’s own Reverend Rob (Robin Eldridge) bringing the message of, “Can you hear me now”?, the boat cruise was yesterday and a fun time was had by all young and old dancing, snorkeling and swimming into the caves. Tonight is our dinner party. It will be a little different with the curfew in place but will be lifted after tomorrow. They are doing their best here to stop the spread. Getting our return Covid-19 return test was seamless; a walk directly across the road to the Boardwalk Village Shopping Village and voila! Done! New places have popped up around here; a bank, shops, Western Union and an amazing restaurant called Matthews. The presentation, preparation and the service are all on point.
If you even think you want a piece of this fun next year July 21-28, 2022; do not delay, inbox me at rivoli98@yahoo.com
