When friend’s got word of Sam’s first trip to Jamaica, they insisted he make a stop to climb Dunn’s River Falls.
Now I know many die hard Jamaica lovers out there will dismiss Dunn’s as too “touristy” and have a list of other places they recommend including Somerset Falls, YS Falls, Reach Falls and more. I get it. My first Dunn’s River experience was with a wedding party of about 35. We held hands as we climbed up the falls and took turns, one by one, taking photos and experiencing the hidden surprises of the falls. Not exactly my preferred way to experience a day at the falls, but it’s a beautiful landmark non-the-less and can still be a lot of fun.
Not one to deprive Sam of his first Jamaican falls experience, we made a pit stop at Dunn’s on the drive down to Kingston. Here’s his experience via photos!
We arrive at Dunn’s and Sam’s declines the water shoes and locker and heads straight to the falls.
It was such a perfect day. Hot, sunny and clear skies; perfect beach day!
It was late morning that Saturday and not a lot of people around, SCORE!
I {heart} this pic! It looks like he’s wearing really short shorts. LOL #iphoneography
Ok, let’s get started…
This is like the rebirth of some aquatic super hero…or villain.
Half Way up the falls he loses one of his slippers and decides to climb the rest of the way barefoot…
Not sure if he’s just reflecting and enjoying the view or having a moment for his long lost slipper.
Continuing on…almost finished….
He did it! Woo hoo!!
