Shyhova Posted May 2, 2014 Author #201 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I think this is one of the walkways where you can get off, it goes so close over the falls at this point that you have to almost crawl underneath... So I'd say we about 600 feet or so up...You are always helping someone or being helped by someone up a big rock or something so it's a good workout....The guy behind me and his wife are constantly stepping into a deep hole or something and needing to be helped out lol.... It was fun, because the water feels GREAT.....The guide is constantly putting the camera in your face and saying " Gimme a Yea Mon!" THe four of us were kind of lagging behind the group....stopping to take selfies and stuff lol...When we got to a pretty rocky, steep stretch of rocks that you are pretty much not going to navigate by yourself.... I'm reaching down helping my man and his wife up a rock when all of a sudden we see a blue and yellow BLUR flying up the rocks.... I said " Babe, you see that Jamaican rock monkey?" Man, those guides are BAD...I know they climb the falls all day everyday, but I gotta give them credit....they FLYYYY up them rocks....no shoes....no nothing.....boing! boing! boing!.... Here you are....panting...slipping....stepping into holes...on your knees trying to find footing....and these dudes...Usain Bolts cousins....FLYINGGGG up the rocks " Cmon Mon follow meeeee...boing! boing! boing! I looked at my man and he looks at me and goes " Where the hell is Leroy?!?" LOL....ahh....I Loved Jamaica:D "Babe...lemme get you in a "action" shot" THis is what I got....

Shyhova Posted May 2, 2014 Author #202 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm not a swimmer....Let me just say that...So we get to this part of the falls where the rocks are really smooth and theres a little pool almost like a natural water slide.... And the GF is like " babe you gonna go down the slide?" " ummm...hell to the no I aint going down no slide" " Cmon babe...cmonnnn" " Are You?" *hits me with the you must be crazy face* " Then why the hell you want ME togo then if you not??" I'm not understanding lol... "Cmon babeeee...do it...pleaseee" "Leroy" chimes in from a rock off to the side.." yea mon...go down thee slide cmon big man!!" " Leroy, stay your @ss out of this ok?" Why do I let people talk me into stuff?? UGHHH....I just dont like being completely submerged in water lol...But I gotta admit....I'd do it again. Chilling...we were almost at the top on this pic...

Shyhova Posted May 2, 2014 Author #203 Share Posted May 2, 2014 We made It!! There was people taking pictures in front of the " i did it" sign that didnt even step foot on the falls lol.....Hey..can't noone say you didnt unless they were there right?:p The second couple we met were SOOO COOOL man...they managed to keep their IPAD dry ALL THE WAY UP THE FALLS....dont ask me how lol...And it took some awesome pictures with that retina display.. We exchanged Facebook information but she hasn't friended me as of yet and I forgot their information....I hope they do because they have some pics on the ipad that I want to post... Quick Note for those interested... Of course they sell everyone thing that u need to climb...like water shoes....but they cost more than is you bring your own. Carnival was selling them for like $10...We bought ours from Walmart for $4. We also bought a waterproof Nokia before the trip and that's what took all the falls pictures.

taecruise2 Posted May 2, 2014 #210 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I am loving your review. I was born and raised in Wilmington . I'm sure I know some of the same people as you. I graduated from Hoggard many years ago. I have lived in Orlando for over 20 yrs now and don't get back to W-town that often , but stay in contact with several close friends. It has been a few years since I was at Dunns Falls , but I see not much has changed. You now have to get to Aruba , that is my favorite port. Keep posting the review is great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousey Posted May 2, 2014 #211 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks, I needed that!:D Loved your last review too! Now you have to go to Puerto Rico! I'd love to hear what you think of that. It's one of my favorite ports.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReggaeRoy Posted May 2, 2014 #214 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm glad you liked Jamaica. It's my favorite place!!! I don't like that part of the falls where you go under the road. Makes me claustrophobic. I usually avoid that part of the climb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaShea Posted May 2, 2014 #217 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) I think I am going to have to start reading this review at home. This is 3rd time at work someone down the hall has come in asked me what is so funny. :p I can't very well say...this trip review I am reading on Cruise Critic!!:eek::D I absolutely love this review and I love every word of this review. Do not change a thing in it. I read it exactly as the other 99% of the people read it. You will always have the few people that are offended in anything you do. That is life!:( I leave next Sunday on the Magic and we are going to these ports so hurry and finish! Edited May 2, 2014 by LaShea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surrealistic Posted May 3, 2014 #225 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Well dh and I had our honeymoon in Jamaica 31 years ago. Your Dunn's Falls pictorial reminded me of my fav part of the trip (except for the ykw). I think we need to go back and recapture that moment..........hope we still can get up the falls, lol. Thanks for the memories. Love your review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
