Monday July 21, 2014.  Our 25th Wedding Anniversary is today!  Where did the time go?  We left home around 10:30 in the morning heading to St Paul, MN area. After arriving at our hotel in Eagan MN we went to St Paul for dinner at the Red Cow on Selby.  We had the most wonderful burgers! forgot the camera so pics of the food but it was so delicious and a great place for an early dinner.  Afterwards we drove to Grand Ave. for a walk and ice cream at the Grand Old Creamery.

 Tuesday July 22, 2014 Early to bed, early to rise!  We got up just before 5 am,

caught the 6 am shuttle to the airport…  was thru security by 6:30.  Not too crowded at the airport.  Seats 2C 2D for our first leg to Atlanta.  Breakfast of cereal (for Kathy) and bagel, egg, ham sandwich for Eric.  Oh.. bloody marys too!  pretty uneventful flight, about 2 hours.   We had about a 1.5 hour layover in Atlanta.  Seats 2C and 2D for our flight to Montego Bay, Jamaica.   they greeted us with Mimosa’s!  had some sort of Mojito and lunch.  Kathy had a wonderful pastrami, cheese on pretzel roll, Eric had the grilled chicken salad.  flight time was about 2.5 hours. again pretty uneventful.  

After landing in Montego Bay, it took an hour to get thru Imigration then got thru customs quickly.  Sat in the Sandals lounge drinking Red Stripe beer, waiting for our 1 hour 15 min ride to the resort.

 The Grande Riviera.  Hmm… they drive on the Wrong side of the road and very fast…  the Water was on our left as we left the airport, it was so blue and beautiful.  We did see a few birds but we were unable to identify them as our book was in the luggage.  Maybe one was the Turkey Vulture.
