JAMAICA PICTURES!!!

The pictures from this trip came out great, due in part to the complete over abundance of shots taken, as well as a better camera and film. Photos do not do this island justice, it must be experienced to be truly appreciated...
Oh, by the way, if you use a dial-up... join the 21st century and get a real Internet connection. This page will take a bizillion years to open at 56K.

This is Tina at Rick's Cafe, and yes... she's diving head first from a 48ft high cliff. I thoughtt I was crazy, but this girl is out of her mind! Pretty damn cool.

Jumping from the Pickeled Parrot, 28ft from top to bottom. A warm up for Rick's

This should be my driver's license picture >:) "No really officer, I haven't been drinking..."

Of course we had to pay our friends on the Indigo a visit. Snorkeled the reef, once again, in a Thunderstorm. This was the only rain we had for the entire trip. I smoked heavily with the captain, probably not a good idea, aw, fuck it, it was a great idea. Red Stripe beer is the best.

This is the best that I could do from Rick's, I learned the first time... I don't dive well. Oh yeah, when jumping from extreme heights, keep your legs together, I shit you not!!!

Me on our porch. We got a great room, dead center of the garden. A very short crawl from the bar, beach, and Alfred's.

This is a resort up in the Blue Mountains. There's a great waterfall here (Better than Dunns River), but I forgot the name. If you get to Negril, just ask any of the natives, they'll know. Find Chicken, he'll take care of you

Here's me getting ready for dinner. The joint in my hand was much huger than it appears. Tina and I had very different ideas pertaining to proper dinner attire. Although, she did have to be told to put a shirt on for breakfast one morning!

This is Tina getting ready for dinner. Notice the number of empty Pina Colada glasses on the table... We were averaging about 30 per day, not counting the Dirty Bananas and Stingers. I REALLY like that red dress.

"Ok, just two more nerdy nanas and we'll jump off the cliffthhh."

Here's a friend that I made while there. It's an ass. But, as was recently pointed out to me by someone near and dear, most of my friends are!

I have no idea when this shot was taken, but it must have been during a really happy dream. Thanks for tastefully covering the important parts Tina.

And yes Shannon, I am!!!

One tasteful "coverup" deserves another. I think I did a fantastic job with the blur tool, yes?

Shannon thinks I look mean with the goatee... Grrrrrrrrr, look how scary I am! I think it makes me look like Stoney... now that's scary. I think I'll be shaving that off! And no, I never remove the doo-rag for the entire trip. Well, once in awhile >: )

Day 1: Not bad for an hour's sleep, two flights, and disgusting airline food, huh?

Day 2: Still going strong and looking, I must say, very Caribbean!

The obligitory "look how fuckin tan I am" shot. You'll notice that Tina and I take many pictures of each other, taking pictures of each other. We were pretty drunk quite a bit of the time needless to say! Well, I was pretty drunk most of the time... right Tina?

Then the inevitable and infamous...
Day 3. Even paradise has a price, and Tina is writing the check here. Days 4-7 just kind of melt together.

The Blue Mountains. The Rastafarians that live here get a bad rap. We met a couple, and they did nothing but bestow their blessings upon us. Extremely cool people, and an extremely beautiful region. This scene makes me want to move there... maybe I will.

If the mountains don't get you, the Caribbean sunsets will. Either way, you'll want to go back again and again.

Of course I could have ended the page with the lovely scenic shots above, but then that wouldn't really be me... would it? Instead, here are two more gratuitous "Tina toppless" shots. For a women who dresses so well, she seemed very at ease with the native look. I, myself, had zero complaints about it : )

(I promised to blur out any sign of nipples... She's shy!)

That's all until next time
