A family travel day that didn’t go to plan—in Jamaica.
We set out to find Independence Day fun in Negril, walked the wrong way, almost crashed a “family” bikini party, pivoted to Rick’s Café, and capped it with fireworks (via drone). Parent-to-parent tips, real moments, and a save you’ll feel in your stomach.
