Jamaica

This time I was teaching at a resort for 8 days and KT and my husband were the ones vacationing. We stayed at the FDR Runaway Bay. This was a great trip, the best part was the vacation nanny. Every family gets one at this all inclusive resort. Nanny arrives at breakfast and stays and plays with the kids all day long, she also cleans your room! Our nanny was so amazing! She decided to go gluten free for the week so that she did not accidentally expose KT.

I met with the chef when we arrived and he assured me that we would be well taken care of. this is an all inclusive resort and many of the meals are buffet style. The chef would come out at each meal and tell us what was safe to eat. At the sit down dinners he would prepare a meal specially for us. The food was always wonderful.

Do beware that the traditional jerk seasonings do have soy sauce in them so cross-contact on the grill is a potential issue. While we were there we discovered casava breads which are a traditional bread of the area made from the casava root (manioc aka tapioca). It was awesome. They made a "French Toast" out of it for us.

We had lots of bean dishes, lots of curry, rice, fresh vegetables and fruit.

What we love about Jamaica is that you can drink the water and eat the produce.
