December 10--Rainbow!!!

Do not despise your own place and hour. Every place is under the stars. Every place is the center of the world.  --John Burroughs

    I'm feeling a bit melancholy as this is our last full day here in Negril. 
    Yesterday's highlight was a glorious rainbow appearing in the sky as we boarded the catamaran for the afternoon/sunset cruise. As the ship's captain stated, "Humans can't make those, only the Father." It ended up being a fairly calm cruise, as there weren't that many people and they were well-behaved. The best part, for me, was the slide. I went off twice and managed to not belly-flop like I did two years ago. 
    The other fun thing of the day was another trip on the hydrobike. Laura and I went out on bikes with Lanie joining us in a kayak. We went out before the water got choppy and had a fun and successful adventure. We had plenty of beach time before a shower chased us inside. 
    But wait, there's more. Lanie and I completed our martini quest--there are 25 martinis on the menu and between the two of us, we tried them all over the course of the week. Her favorite is chocolate, mine is ??? They even make one that tastes like Girl-Scout-Thin-Mint cookies. Thanks to bartenders Hakeem, Judeen and Davion for making this week so much fun!
    One more day in paradise,
