More highlights from Jamaica, Mon

So my parents surprised us with a trip to Jamaica for April vacation!!  They even pulled us out of school for the last day before vacation started.  It was so much fun.  We stayed at the Jewel Runaway Bay.  There was so much to do there.  We went to kids camp a couple of times and made homemade pizza, tie-dyed shirts, played wii games, etc.  My dad and I went snorkeling while mom and Dimitri went kayaking.  Mom and I went on a hobie cat ride.  PLUS there was a waterpark right at the hotel - like 50 steps from our room.  The waterpark had two huge slides, an awesome lazy river and a few kiddie slides.  The hotel also had an infinity pool with a swim-up bar where we got to order our own Pina Colada's and Strawberry Daiquiries - YUM!  There was another huge pool with a volleyball net. My mom and I played a lot of volleyball.  The beach was fun too.  Early in the morning we would go to the beach with a bagel and feed the fish.  They would literally jump on us to get the bagel.  In one of the restaurants there was a kids buffet - just our height with just the foods we love including a soft serve ice cream machine and cones!  Let me tell you how awesome it was to have ice cream like whenever you want to!  The people were so nice, too.  I asked one of the workers to get a coconut from a tree and he did and he cut it with a machete and stuck a straw in it for me to drink.  Egg-boy made me eggs whenever I asked and the smoothie man made Dimitri and I banana smoothies every morning because he knew that we loved them.   One night we had dinner at the Japanese steakhouse where Delicious (yes, that was her name!) made us a fun dinner right in front of us.   I hope my parents take us back there again someday.  It was really really awesome!! 






























One item checked off the Bucket List!

Well, at least off of my mom's bucket list.  We got to swim with the dolphins in Jamaica.  It's always been something my mom wanted to do.  It was pretty cool, I have to say.  Dimitri wasn't sure what to think though!!
