    Heading back home (Honest there is some watch content!)

    Back to reality unfortunately. Today is a travel day and involves waiting in lounges.

    I traveled with three watches this year.

    The one non-Rado was my Christmas day choice:

    My sports dress choice for the "resort formal" meals was this:

    Those two split evening duty between them, but the lions share of the work for the last ten days was this:



    It was with me when I swam with rays;













    It swam with fishes:







    Including this little fellow who wouldn't leave me alone one day:



    It swam with starfish and crabs:





    and drifted on the tide with pelicans:



    It saw beautiful sunsets:







    Moonrises



    Starry nights



    and one tropical rainstorm:



    All three watches some some wonderful Jamaican culture and food, but I was usually too busy to bother with pictures of that.
