About a week ago, I got back from getting to go to Jamaica for the first time and we went as a group to celebrate my Uncle Brett’s 55th Birthday. It was a blast and we had amazing weather, which only made the trip better. It was fun to to take it all in for the first time with cliffs, beaches, beautiful blue water, and sunsets that are unbelievable. I am going to share a vlog from our trip but it is going to be a little different from the usual vlog of just our whole trip. Today, I am just going to take y’all through our Jamaica itinerary and what our timing looked like. Now let me make note that this is just for where we stayed on the Montego Bay side and Negril.
