hey guys, just wanted to share with you all a few pics from my brief layover on sunday into monday. every once in a while a great trip comes open for cabin crews to pick up. this one i could not resist, even though day 3 is a killer---(0500 report in hotel lobby in boston to fly boston-philly-chicago-philly <sit for 2.5hrs> then last leg to dc) day one had us arriving into montego bay, jamaica at 2150, departing the next day at 1000 local. the first thing i did was shed my uniform (once i got to my room) and don my favorite pair of board shorts and a t-shirt then headed to the beach for a late night swim in the caribbean. it was still 82 degrees at that time with a slight breeze from the west. i felt not only invigorated after a long day of flying, but i actually FELT OKAY. which, in the long run, i will take any day of the week considering. after a fitful night sleep, i got dressed then headed to the resort cafe to meet my crew for breakfast then head to the airport.
the view from our table was calming and spectacular. a great way to start the day. looking at the palm trees, feeling the cool morning trade wind breeze and the sound of the birds, i thought to myself, ''i'd love to have a grand banks docked here.'' just thought i'd share some tropical pics with you guys in hopes that spring will finally get here.

even though the trip was a killer ( i could REALLY tell it was a full moon yesterday!! ) i was surrounded by great coworkers. as for the swim, that was my goal... i was determined to feel the ocean around me. it was an awesome feeling and i think it might have helped too. the scent of the water, the slight breeze and the crystal clear night sky with the entire galaxy above me to look at. i could not get over how clear the stars were along with a bright clear moon. maybe a 2 week trip to the dead sea is in order. 
this morning i awoke after sleeping a solid 5 hrs (maccabee at my side snoring like a typical boston terrier ). gentlemen, that is the longest i've slept in nearly 7 months. -
