gettin my groove on "TRIP report" boardie bash style--april21-may11,2013

That last picture of you two is the most amazing, those extra days made a world of difference. This is a wonderful report and you have shared the whole thing with us. Thank you.

Hello Groove, and thanks for the epic trip report. I know it took a lot of effort to see it through.

Nice to meet you during the trip, hope our paths cross again someday, and go Vols.

Great TR and beautiful pics. Really wish I was there. We made our first trip to Jamaica in May and fell in love with it. I had wanted to stay in Negril but ended up in Mobay and never made it to Negril. I am planning our next trip to Negril and thinking of staying on the cliffs, hopefully next year. All the reports make Negril sound so great. It would be great to meet new friends as you did.

thanks, my friend....one day we will cross paths...

Great report! Thanks!

guess it is time for this report to come to an end...so sad....

this would be saturday may 11, 2013...the day of departure....it is always a sad day...I set my clock and get up at 530, look out the window, and lay back down...Janet told me to wake her up at 6, but make sure she was up by 7....so at about 630, i wake up again, mad that I fell asleep and am wasting my last few hours...but I didnt actually go to slepp until after 3, so I am a walking zombie for alittle while...I have my wake and bake sub and then out to the beach...we eat at 7am, and Mike already has our chairs set up, he grabs the towels from our deck every morning and sets Janet up where ever she tells him to the night before...love me some MIke...

a man with a funny hat and his daughter...Janet Claus strikes one last time...

we have all of our packing done except for the last minute stuff when we change into our airport clothes...we have a little dog food left and a few rawhides...some of the dogs would not eat the rawhides, but two of the puppys did, and i knew they stayed down near the old t-water, so I took the treats to them...I saw a little boy at Jam Rock and I am recognized because of my many walks on the beach, and I give dad the last bit of candy i had, and the last color book for the little boy...

Coral Seas looked like an OK place to stay, nothing fancy, but I dont need fancy..for the price, I can walk across the street...

Betty has stopped Dean, the jerk pork guy...he walks the beach with his cooler full of jerk pork, selling it so u dont have to leave the beach for your lunch...
Attachment 29387Attachment 29388

I had seen Dean many times on the beach, but had never tried his pork...he gave me a sample....very good...bought some to eat on the trip back to Mobay...

trying the sample...
