Trip Report w/pics

We arrived to some welcome news at Travellers. We had booked a superior room and at checkin I was asking about getting a fridge for the room. The desk clerk informed me that it wouldn't be necessary as they had upgraded us to a kitchenette.









After getting to our room and getting settled in we went back to the lobby for some sustenance. Wednesday was a Managers Party for the guests with appetizers, rum punch and even a piano player for entertainment.





Soon it was time to move and get down to the beach. Somehow we ended up next door at Errol's Sunset Cafe & Bar where the vibe was just right. We had numerous libations then retired to our patio to give thanks for a great day.

I remember as a kid, my dad took us to Rose Hall when the original house was nothing more than ruins with an abundance of vegitation growing up through what was left of the interior. No roof, hardly any walls left, almost nothing except fot the foundation and those front steps leading to the front entrance.

They did a wonderful job of restoring it to it's former state.

I always love seeing the Jamaican school children walking home from school sporting the various uniforms of their schools. I wish they had that here in Canada too. It speaks to a real sense of unity which sadly is very much lacking up here.

Great report!

Aha! Its Thursday and our first full day in Negril. I woke up around 5:30 AM and Cathy already had the coffee on. I was feeling remarkably rested even though we had stayed up a bit late the night before. After a guick cup of coffee it was off to explore the beach. By 6:15 I had already been offered ganga, hash, hash oil, cocaine and even a tour to the hills to see where Lambs Breath is grown. I politely declined all offers and soon it was off to the breakfast buffet.

If memory serves me correct, the buffet opens at 7:30 which is early by Jamaican standards. We hadn't been able to take advantage of any of the Groupon or Living Social deals so we had to pay the $11.00 buffet charge each day. Breakfast is pretty good and ackee and saltfish as well as callalou was offered each day as well as an omelette station and fresh fruit. As much as I have been to Jamaica I still can't get a liking for ackee & saltfish.









Travellers is a very well kept resort and the staff were all very friendly and helpful



After breakfast we applied heavy doses of sun tan lotion and headed to the beach.

We met 3 gals from Oregon who were there on a Groupon deal. They were a lot of fun to visit with and we soon found out we were neighbors as they had the room next to ours. This was their 4th visit to Travellers.



The special of the day was Pumpkin Juice and it was pretty good.
