Here are a couple more videos from our trip. They’re very short. I’m starting to really like the little flip cam.
Here is my dad in his workshop. It was quite startling to me to see how disorganized it is knowing how organized he is. I guess when you retire, that part of you just goes out the window..
Here my mom cooks breadfruit..
This is what the ride down the mountain feels like. I didn’t move the camera at all to get the motion you see. It’s all crap road..
After sticking around the mountain compound for a day or so, we loaded up the cars (JP came too) and headed out to the west coast, Negril. Beach Time finally!! For 3 days anyway…
The trip took about 5 hours of steadily degrading road conditions but once we got there, it was soo worth it!!
The resort was called Merrils 2 it was small but nice. The food was ok, I’ve had better. The rooms are clean. I guess the one thing that urked me was that they didn’t have fresh oj which is weird for a Jamaican resort but whatever. It’s not exactly kid friendly but they try..

I’ll be posting more video clips of this trip in the coming weeks..
I’m so far behind on my posts.. I’ll do Christmas first then backup to vacation pix.. To just go strait to the pictures, chick here.
This year, Sienna was so much more aware of Christmas. She helped me put up the tree and decorate it. All the ornaments ended up being at the bottom of the tree but thats ok, i just moved them around. I don’t think she minded at all.. I wish i had the video camera going when we first turned the lights on. She loved it!! Every day she would ask me to put on the Christmas tree.. I wonder what next year will be like..
Anyway…
On Christmas morning, she was ready to go!! Her first words after seeing the tree full of presents was “WOW” then she went to wake up mommy.. Here’s what happened when mommy got up..
