I agree with UNC. Catch the bus to Ocho Rios and go up Dunns River Falls. It's a blast and you get to see alot of Jamica while on the bus ride. When I went it was back around '02 or so. The roads you took were just barely big enough for the Bus, but I do believe they should have the Highway complete by now. They were working on it when we were there. Also you have to try some Jerk Chicken or Pork from one of the stands around there. Yall enjoy!!!

 

just got back carnival. Me, the wife and kids and 6 other relatives. Made a great group vacation because there was no money to divide up for meals nor was there much desicion making, everyone could go on their own schedual.
If you take kids I high recommend getting 2 rooms. we did this time and it much better.

In Cozumel we did this thing where we swam with dolphins, it was great , highly recommend. Imagine being at a freinds house that had 2 labs that just hung around and loved effection.

i have cruised carnial , RC, and princess and i really rank them all about the same. princess was my favorite but i think it was because it was Alaska.

to me it is like vegas, the newer the ship the better, food is adquit, but far from great, they hit you with volume.
Galveston is supposed to get a newer ship in late next year and i am going to wait on that one to go again.
