Touching down in Montego Bay, Jamaica presents the first sign that you're in for a tropical treat. Just before landing, there are views of long stretches of light-sand beaches, colorful resorts, and the most crystal-clear, blue waters. Our two hour drive to Oracabessa only added to the excitement, especially with several local stops for fresh coconut water at a fruit stand, Red Stripe beers at a roadside bar, and jerked-chicken from an infamous restaurant. Needless to say, my first time to Jamaica certainly will not be my last.
