My bf wants to do the zip lines this year...you will have to tell me more about it. I may PM if you if you dont mind.

Ohhhh no you dont! You're not off the hook....I'm sure one of the super friendly and helpful staff there would be happy to stand with Little guy so momma can take a swing off the rope! HA! I want a pic. Just playing, but it is SO much fun. Can't wait to hear about your trip with the wee one!!

Thank you! Hope your trip is safe and mad fun!!

Tizzy. Do you have some contact info for Country Western? I was told by a couple people that they were out of business but it sure doesn't sound like it. We ended up going to Rhodes Hall to ride in January but I really wanted to try Country Western. Heard it was a lot better.

Nice work lady. I like the quality of your pics, level horizon and clarity, and thought it was great how you wrapped it up with Alfred. Thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing you next month.

Amazing Tizzy! You spread a lot of joy and love by sharing your pics and stories. It is truly a magical place to be sure. Going in a week for trip 11 and it NEVER gets old. Will be spreading the ashes of my friends mom who sadly never got to visit in person but now will live on there in spirit forever.
You seem like a great person and I know Jamaica loves you right back! Have a great second trip in April and I am going to be greedy and ask for round two of those trip reports.. You possess a great gift sister!

Wow that is really special. I'm sorry for the loss but this will be wonderful way to bring peace and closure to family and friends. How beautiful. I can't think of a better place to heal and celebrate life.

Thanks for your nice post. I look forward to hearing YOUR trip report too...I will not disappoint. :D

Sure, feel free to PM me. I remember it vividly!

Thanks Tizzy... If you knew my buddies mom..you would know she was our kind of people. At 85 she'd still get dolled up to the nines and cruise around in her convertible. Drove the boys crazy even in her autumn years! Near the end ( last year which is why we skipped our trip ) she and my buddy Jon gathered at her hospice bedside with a blender, pineapple rum and some island tunes! "let's do it while we still can!" was her battle cry! It is that very spirit that we will be taking with us... The spirit of Priscilla will forever grace that island now. I think we will commend her at Ricks... Though touristy (it is still one of my annual guilty. pleasures) it is the kind of place where her life of the party personality would have flourished.

Secondly wanted to recommend a great book and must read for any Negril lover: WALK GOOD by Roland Reimer. Written about 25 years ago if memory serves it is a splendid account of the sites sounds and experiences that everyone on this site holds so dear. It is a fun and easy read and good inspiration for things to do and people there who still enrich the Negril scene. If you read it I would love your review on it. Thought you are such a naturally gifted writer that a book like that would be something you would love. Cheers!

Hey Chiilinthemost,
Roland is actually a boardie on here who goes by Kahuna. Agreed it's a great read as well as his new book Sunset Negril.

Hey Roland,
Get the ol' typewriter out and give us a new read. Your last trip report was great but short lived.

Cool Booger. Didnt know I had greatness in my very midst! It was a great book and is always good for a Negril fix when Minnesota and January conspire. Thanks for the heads up... Very cool to know ! ( good thing I loved his work, eh?) :D

Beautiful Trip report! I enjoyed it so much!! Loved the new pictures you posted!:)


The picture of Alfred at the end is really special…


This means I have to get on the ball and finish my Trip Report too already.
I can’t use the “Well, Tizzy still hasn’t finished hers yet….” Excuse anymore. lol:D

I really look forward to meeting you in April!!
