Cody and I planned a trip for just the 2 of us for our anniversary. We wanted to go last year but we had Londyn instead!! Cody has always wanted to go to a Sandals resort or one similar so we finally were able to find a great deal and go. We booked through Costco Travel and went to Couples Tower Isle in Jamaica. It was such a great week. My Mom and sister took care of Londyn and they had a blast with her while we spent a week on the beach almost forgetting any/all responsibility. It was fun to just be us again and have fun together. The resort staff treat you so well and totally took care of us. We got upgraded to first class on our flights over and back to top it all off!
Oh and I took way too many pictures so this is the longest post ever!
 |
| Fire Dancer- exotic right? |
The resort had shows every night and classes such as yoga or basketmaking during the day. I would recommend it to anyone. We compared this to a cruise and we love both.
 |
| He could even breathe fire! |
 | |
| Dunn's River Falls- I came here with my family on a cruise 9 years ago! We have a similar picture of all of us in this very spot trying to dunk each other! |
 |
| You literally hike up the water fall! No joke! |
 |
| The Tour guides would tell Cody to do stupid things, I think they just wanted him to get hurt! He climbed up that side of the waterfall with those 2 other guys! He said he couldn't breathe at all! |
 |
| So pretty! |
 |
| They would push you down this little slide into the water. I tried to get Cody before he went under but you can tell he went too far/too fast :o) I got his feet :o) |
 |
| We had a great time swimming around in the little pools and we love our underwater camera case! |
 |
| They made us do it. But we didn't argue. |
 |
| The sunset from the dock. |
 |
| Scuba!! We couldn't wait to go diving! The resort offered unlimited activites such as scuba! We love diving together and seeing the underwater world! |
 |
| A puffer fish! |
 |
| Collin and a underwater spider |
 |
| He snapped his fingers and the fish would all come. Not sure if it was the noise or if they thought his fingernails were food? |
 |
| My cute dive buddy! |
 |
| I loved the cool birds they had everywhere! |
 |
Next stop, A plantation for a horseback riding tour. |
 |
| Giddy-Up. Poor horse was old and skinny! |
 |
| They made us do it again! |
 |
| We stopped halfway for a coconut demonstration and they told us about all the fruits they grow and let us taste. It was delicious! |
 |
| Part of the demonstration. He doesn't wear any shoes. And he always said "everytime, everytime" |
 |
| Catamaran Cruise |
 |
| This drunk guy dove into the water off the side of the boat. Idiot! |
 |
| We offered to be the dd since everyone else was drinking... |
 |
| We stopped for a swim. The house in the back was part of the plantation we had been to earlier in the day on horseback. It was beautiful! The water was so beautiful. We played in the waves and floated around. |
 |
| On our horseback ride that day we met Wade and Jessica from Jacksonville, FL. We had such a great time with them and it was fun to have some friends around to hang out with. They were on their honeymoon- they were married the previous Sat. April 30th, which is also our Anni! |
 |
| The view from the beach. You can see the dive boat and the nudie island! |
 |
| The beach chair cushions made for the coolest floatation devices :o) |
 |
| The view from our room. |
 |
| We even got to play tennis in between rain storms. |
 |
| Couples Tower Isle 2011 |
 |
| These parrots hang out in the gardens. The cage is open but they don't fly away! |
 |
| I had to show everyone the main reason you did not want to go to the nudie island. These were just a few of the people in line.. Would you want to see them in the buff? Us either! |
 |
| Laying on the beach. We could get used to this :o) |
 |
| Looks great doesn't it... the only drawback was the sunburn :o) The waiters would bring you drinks all day...no tipping allowed! |
 |
| Kayaking |
 |
| The blue water was so pretty! |
 |
| Our last day we floated the White River. It was crystal clear. Cody asked for a lifejacket and I was mad I had to wear one. But we had great tour guides and everyone on the tour was on their honeymoon and shared our anniversary. |
 |
| Cody getting ready to hit some rapids. He even flipped. I think he just wanted to take a dip. |
 |
| Me Chillin' in my tube! |
 |
| It was a great river trip- we stopped on the side for some Jamaican Jerk chicken! It was amazing!! |
 |
| They had 3 different resturaunts. The nicest one was called 8 Rivers. We enjoyed all the food we ate. |
