Pattison Family Negril Trip report 2014

After the Cruise we hung at the boat bar for awhile. Good music and a comfortable vibe. When rain let up we walked back down to Firefly and parked our selves at a table in the bar. A few family games of cards and dominoes were enjoyed. A bam
nd stopped by and the customers kept them playing for awhile. Great friendly crowd in the bar so fun and laughter was had by all! Being our last night we decided to grab a few of those delicious pizzas from Italian café and eat on the patio. Kids were looking pretty worn out from long bust vacation so we put them to bed and went back to the firefly beach bar for a night cap. Oh and I almost forgot this! After we ate the pizza all 4 of us stripped off, wrapped in towel;s, and went for a bare ass swim in the ocean. Thought if we were staying at Firefly we had to do it once! Felt great!
After wife and I said our good byes to the staff and other guest we returned to room. Wifey was tired so I headed out to Bourbon Beach. Great music and good people! Must say this though ( and never thought I would feel this way ) but I felt sorry for all the older Canadian men I met there who were out hunting young local girls. I had my share of fun in Jamaica in my younger days but something seemed sad about this. Are there no Jamaican woman at least a little closer to your age? Im pretty liberal, and definitely nothing close to being a prude, but 60 to 18 is kind of icky! I finished my last full day with about 10 rum punchs there and headed home for snuggles. Very happy to be married!

Great report. Thanks for all the great pictures too

you are so right. I'ts very hard to find good honest people, that are not out to hit you up for things. I'm so glad I'm street smart. i think of how many good people they ruined.

Day 10 - woke up early his morning as we were being picked up by Steve Positive at 7:30. Jus a mad rush to finish packing etc and were off to the airport. No issues there. No heavy lines either. Since we hadn't eaten we looked around for something appetizing and not worth its weight in gold. Hard to find here or any airport for that matter. After a flight to Montreal and a quick jump over to Toronto we were home. Our Bullmastiff Charlie was very happy to see us all!

Jus like to say thanks to everyone for following along and many many thanks for making this vacation what it was. I always felt like I knew where to go, what I should be doing, where to eat, what to expect and how to do it better, because of you all! Thanks for the help!

You have a lovely family, thanks for sharing your trip and all the great pics

Yes it was. sorry we were just leaving for the red stripe boat. Tried looking you up later but it started down pouring again as I was about to leave.

Thank you.

My Fiance and I will be staying at the Firefly for four nights during our honeymoon in Jamaica in April so it was great to see a trip report by someone staying there, thanks for sharing!

It didn’t faze them because you are their protector a real-life super hero. Those little girls obviously trust you to do only what’s necessary to maintain peace. What a great dad and husband you are.

Oncedeported, you clearly don’t have a selfish bone in your body and no doubt your two little princesses inherited that commendable characteristic. They are going to make you and your wife proud on more than one occasion.

Bravo on the trip report!!! I’ve gotten so much from it…good information, good tips and a genuine “positive” vibe that is often missing when some experience non-irie moments. I’m not even finished reading it all or enjoying your wonderful photos but had to stop to give you props.
Thank you so much for sharing your visit.
