Me, too, Kathy. The 4x4 was a compromise for them to see some of an island but to have fun doing it. If I hadn't been to the islands before I'd have insisted on more sightseeing, but once you've seen the shacks and all those roosters (they're EVERYWHERE!) you've seen them all. I've even had a Bloody Mary in Bloody Mary's, so I've filled a lot of the squares already. Although I'm making fun a little bit, there ARE some beautiful areas of jungle and all the foliage but like you said, not so appealing to teens. I did look long and hard at the waterfall hike but the description and physical requirements such as having to be a "trained hiker" (???) scared me away. This IS after all, a vacation; I don't want to re-live my US Air Force survival school days!!!
