Bill and I did a really fun snorkeling trip this morning. We took a two person kayak out to my snorkel location, and parked it in the cove I found. The guy who gave us the kayak told us to stay in an area where they could see us, and technically we did that. Bill …

Fire Show
I have very little to report today and it looks like Bill did a long post, so I’m going to do a combination post again today. Bill went diving this morning. I had planned to go snorkeling but the weather wasn’t great for that. It was windy and choppy this morning and it looked like …
Night Dive!!
Howdy Folks!! So we have been trapped by the resort vacation package. Sean-Pierre of the Jamaican tourist Board used that terminology and said it is a possibility with resorts like Couples. One of the nice thing about Couples Negril is the scuba is included. I’ve done two more dives this morning and a night dive. Sean-Pierre is …
Octopus
I had a pretty fun day but I’m completely wiped out! Bill went diving again this morning and he’s working on a post. I was wrong about about the other beaches not having security guards, and I got kicked off a beach that I needed to cross to snorkel this morning. That was very frustrating, …
Scuba Certified
After my first dive today I was done with my certification other than turning in my tests and filling out some paperwork! I have a temporary card and have already logged my first dive after my certification. I have a log book now and I will have to keep track of my dives. My first dive …
Catamaran Cruise
We had a pretty active day today. Bill did two dives this morning and finished up his scuba certification. I took the boat out to snorkel while he was diving, then I came back and snorkeled on my own. That was a better experience. We are on a bay with resorts all around, but no …
Scuba Bill
I have almost completed everything for my Open Water Scuba certification. I have a final dive tomorrow morning to do and turn in all my book work. Hopefully I will pass! I’m guessing they pass everyone who doesn’t end up as fish food. We did stuff in the pool first which was a lot like doing the discover …
Kneeboarding
We finally got a day with no rain! It was sunny and warm all day long so we had activities in the morning and in the afternoon. Bill did the first half of his scuba certification today. He’s finishing up the written part now so he may do an update tomorrow. He does the second …
Scuba Prep
Hello All: I’m doing a combined post tonight for Bill and me because we don’t have a lot to write about. We took the catamaran out this morning and that was a lot of fun. We are both getting better at sailing. It started raining at 1pm today and rained all afternoon. I had planned …
Day 4 with Bill
I’m going to start off with a few things that I keep telling myself that I should put in the blog. Did we mention that we are staying at Couples Negril? That should probably be day 1 but the travel day can really take it out of you! I’m not sure if things our readers are …
