It's been a great couple of days here at SN. How can they not be! We've been snorkeling again and hanging out on the beach and a few times by the pool. We ate again at Barefoot (my favorite) and 4Cs (David's favorite). The made to order pasta dishes at 4Cs and the seafood (mahi mahi, swordfish, conch) are great at Barefoot. I broke the lobster bisque routine and tried a lemon grass and coconut soup at Barefoot that was pretty good, too.

Yesterday, it rained and stormed most all afternoon so we hung out at the piano bar on the beach. Jill, I asked Chris for a CRS and he gave me one of his grins then brought it to me. Then, he asked how I knew about it so I told him that you told us. I will only say this.....it is name appropriately since I had a few........ :lol:

They took down the railings on the foot bridge near the wedding gazebo yesterday and put tape up. So, we'll see what they are going to do with them. I also figured out yesterday what had changed at the main bar. They have installed the most beautiful tile behind it....very nice touch.

I finally found my favorite spa lady yesterday, Elaine Hooper, and am going for a massage this morning. I can't wait! We're not sure yet what the rest of the day holds. We're thinking about something special for this afternoon so will let you know later if we do it. Then, tonight is another beach party/buffet that we love.

Off to the spa. Have a great day!

Our last day at SN was great on Monday. Elaine at the spa gave me a wonderful sports massage. Then, we did the beach, pool, eat and drink routine all day. At 4, Michael and Macky in water sports took us out for a cruise in one of the smaller boats....... Bloody Bay, the river/lake where they put all the boats during hurricanes, saw a freight ship close up, Seven Mile Beach, somes caves, the cliffs and watched the divers at Rick's a while. It was great and we really enjoyed it. The beach buffet was inside due to rain so we didn't care for it as much but the food and show were good. We had our first ever bubble bath waiting for us that evening, too..... :-D

Claudia, we told several people to go to YS Falls, Pelican Bar and Whitehouse since we all had such a great trip there last year, thanks to you and Jerry.

One evening during our stay we ran into Frederick Hamilton who was visiting the resort. He's doing fine and it was great to see him again. He was the Food Services Manager there our first trip in '08. He was just leaving for the Grand Bahamian last year when we were there. This year he had just returned and is now at Beaches Negril in the same capacity. It seems the norm is for all the Sandals managers to be on a roller coaster ride.

Tuesday we won the lottery on return trips. We made it from the lobby at SN leaving by shuttle at 8 AM to our gate at MBJ by 9:30. It was wonderful! Our flight didn't leave until 12:45 but we got to check out all the shops and eat lunch at the airport this time so it all worked out fine. Better safe than sorry.

Since this is our final post and the subject was udated to include "review", we want to give credit and many thanks to Amy McHugh for arranging another close to perfect trip to SN for us. We hope to return there soon!
