Ocho Rios

A view of our ship from the Jamaican waterfalls.

Day 3: Ocho Rios, Jamaica (Monday)

I felt much better when I woke up, we went and got breakfast and headed out. We arrived in port a little later than scheduled because of the helicopter delay, but we were still off the boat by 10:30am. We went and walked around a few of the shops, and then decided to take a taxi to the Dunn's River falls. It was really crowded and cost extra to climb the falls so the cab guy (his name is also Kevin) told us about some local falls we could go to for free. So we went there and it was beautiful, we were the only ones there and we spent about an hour climbing the falls and swimming in the ocean. We had a good time and the scenery was amazing. Afterwords he took us up to a botanical garden but we just looked around outside. Then we went to the flee market for more shopping. If you've ever been to Tiawana, Jamaica is the same almost worse. They haggle you so bad, and they try to give you things that they say is a "gift" but then they want you to give them a tip. It's very weird, not to mention all the times we got offered pot! But it was a very beautiful place and I'm glad we were able to see it.
