Jamaica day 15!
Our last day in Jamaica. Got up early to enjoy our last morning. Our flight didn't leave until about 15 o clock so we had the whole morning to ourselves. We had planned to go for a last snorkel in the morning, but sadly this morning the sea was way to rough. We had planned to get our last sunbathing on, but sadly this morning it was very cloudy. Even though there was no chance for a good snorkel we still went in the water. The waves were amazing! There was a difference of probably 4-5 meters low to high. We got our floating mattresses and went flying over the waves. It was awesome - but a bit scary when trying to get up the ladder, it had to be perfectly matched with the movement of the ocean. Oh, and we had planned to be able to dry our swimmers in the sun before we had to leave, but oh right, there was barely any sun this morning. Things never really go the way you plan them, huh?
Our ride was supposed to pick us up at 12 o clock. At 15 past they still hadn't arrived so we went ahead and called them - apparently our booking had gotten lost and if we wouldn't have called no one would have showed up. Rocky (whos company we have been going with on all of our extersions this trip) solved it the best way he could though. He called up a friend of his who had a car near by and got him to pick us up, he then called and explained what had happened and begged our forgiveness a hundred times. Half way down the road he even met up with us to apologise in person and gave us a discount on the fare. He then asked us not to give him a bad review but he really didn't have to do all that, we still would have only said good things about him - he's been great.
The flight home was long and I didn't manage to sleep one bit. When we arrived in Stockholm it was about midnight in my head but 7 o clock in the morning local time - the entire night just disappeared. The best thing would have been to just stay awake all day though obviously this was not possible. I went down at about 11 and didn't get back up until 16, turning my entire day and night around.
