Unbelievable!!!!
I was so excited about today! Julie and I had booked our excursions for Jamaica and Mexico wayyyy back in October last year!!!! :o)
We decided to climb the Dunns River Falls and then go River Tubing!
Now ... anyone who knows me well, knows that I HATE the water! So here I am on a Cruise ...... and the only excursions we booked are both water based!!! I admit, I was a little bit nervous about it, but was ready to blame Julie entirely if the day was a complete ....... wash out :o) But as it turned out ............. It was an AMAZING day!
We were picked up by mini bus and taken to the Falls. It was a bit of a drive, but we stopped a couple of times to take in the view and have a break.
We had two fabulous guides with us from Yardie Tours .... Shaw and Alycia. I cannot recommend them highly enough, they looked after us so well all day and were very entertaining!
Climbing was hard going and really slippery, cold ..... and WET! I think it took about an hour to climb up, but it was so much fun :o)
My only regret is not having many photos of the day. Obviously, you couldn't take a normal camera with you - sometimes you were up to your neck in the water! I did have a waterproof one, but the pictures it took weren't brilliant :o(
In contrast to the Falls, the River Tubing in the afternoon was so relaxing! We all had a Tube ... which was like a huge tyre with a board in the bottom. It was beautiful just floating along down river ... although some parts were quite bumpy! :o)
Back at the Port, we had a final photo taken :o) We not only shared the whole day with Julie and her husband Robin but also with a wonderful US Demo from Minnesota - Rachel Tessman and her fabulous mum! :o)
That evening, when we returned to our cabin, we were greeted by more Towel Art and Pressies from Stampin' Up! This cute little bin, full of yummy goodies!
