Our Honeymoon - Part I, Jamaica

Ya mon. Since I haven't talked to most of our friends since the wedding (our schedules have been crazy!) I wanted to share a little bit about our two part honeymoon. Jon and I headed to Jamaica two days after the wedding. Our resort was beautiful and consisted of private cabins, a beach and several bars and restaurants. We spent most of our time relaxing on the beach, in the pool and of course eating. We ventured off the resort to go on a croc-viewing boat ride and to go swimming in the largest waterfall I've ever seen. We also went snorkelling, which I think was my favorite activity. We couldn't help but notice that outside of the resort Jamaica is a very poor country. Although it is the law for children to attend school, the families must pay for it and most cannot. The unemployment rate is very high as well.
