How do I find the first Trail of Ashes Tour postings. I'd like to see those pics as well as read the tales of your adventure?
It's sort of a toss-up. You never know what a Negril cabbie is going to do -- will he let you smoke in cab, will he be willing stop for a smoke break, and, most important, will the other passengers, in a rush to airport, insist on no stopping?
The whole thing can be traumatic.
We were set to make one stop to pick up some fellow tourists from White Sands. I smoked one on the way, just in case, then another at White Sands as they sorted out the luggage. ....
Here is the previous report:

. . . . and then . . .
It turned out, it was a nice family from Charlotte that came along with us to the airport -- an adult couple and their mother. They LOVED to smoke ganja, so it was a party to Montego Bay.
Just as I got to the airport, I checked one more time, and I found a little spliff roach in one of the little compartments in my carry-on bag. Sheesh. Just in time.
I checked in, and I still had a few minutes for a last meal. I went to Margaritaville at the airport, had one last plate of Jerk chicken -- it was good, too. But not as good as the road-side stands ..... I will see those stands in my sleep for many nights to come .....
Coming soon: Final reflections of Negril .... PLUS a few stories, observations and details and details that I left out.
PLus more pics and VIDEOS VIDEOS VIDEOS!!!!
OK, here is a little video of enjoying Jerk Chicken at Whistling Bird ....

And here is a little video of SUNSET ON THE CLIFFS .... nice patio dining area, just after breakfast on my last day before checking into Seastar Inn .... fourth day overall, and you can tell I am in the spirit of Negril with my ya-mon commentary ....

There are a few things I left out ....
One was a visit to Oasis .... All these years, I had drove by that Oasis sign pointing up a hill on a small street, probably drove by it a hundred times, but never made the turn .... It was 10 p.m. one night, on the way back to Seastar Inn, and I thought I would check it out.
The turn is one of the few corners on the west end road where there is really nothing there, so when you make the turn and head up the hill away from the Cliffs, it's really quiet and really dark.
I mean, AMAZINGLY quiet .... You can hear your every breath and practically see your every thought at night against the starry sky .....
If you really, really really want to "get away from it all," this is the place. By 10 or 1030, the whole place had shut down, including the bar ... I rolled one up there with the security guard, a young guy, and it was just me and him ... There were a few cars in the parking lot, and he said some of the rooms were occupied, but wow that place was dark. Just the gleep gleep gleep in the trees .....
I liked it. Don't know if I could handle it for more than a few days or so, as I'm fond of companionship .... but the pool did look NICE ....
And here is a little spear fishing video .....
