I've really been enjoying your trip report and beautiful pictures!
This update really brought back a lot of good memories from our trip to Pelican Bar in April. I wish I could go back tomorrow!
Please keep these great updates coming!
Floyds Pelican Bar is something that everyone should put on their bucket list. It is something different, thats for sure.
Floyd has no electricity, so he charges batteries to run some light and music...the boys catch lunch and supper...he brings ice and beer for the patrons.
It is a great way to top off an already marvelous afternoon.

everyone looking in the water, finally figure out that a domino was dropped
all looking for it
Attachment 18854
Attachment 18855
another proof on how clear the wata is...you can drop a whte domino in the water andit lays on the white sandy bottom for several minutes before someone finally sees it from above the water in the bar. emrgency avoided, game goes on.
It actually started cooling off, and clouding up.

one of the captains retrieves his boat and takes his group back
Attachment 18857
I get ready to take a pic of floyd and lose my camera batteries, so no more pics today....
the rain comes in as the capt gets a call from kingsley. he says he needs to get going and we tell him we will leave when it slacks up a bit.
It has set in for awhile. several locals still here, one other boat of 2 couples and our group. we gather in an indian style circle and enjoy the peace offerings that are present. after several and then a couiple more, there are moments of silence. we are all dazed and confused. and laughing. the local boys are having their own sessions and are laughing and talking..in my own zone, I keep hearing several bits and pieces of different conversations. almost too paralyzed to move, just sitting there, when I keep hearing the locals talking about worms, really the only work i could make out was worsm, WORMS, worms....minutes later larry shouts out that he sees the worms, well, that set it off, uncontrollable laughter for about 30 minutes. as i was saying that I heard them talking about it over there and pointed, Janet said something about it being like hearing voices, No one knew what the other was talking about and then suddenly something very stupid was very funny...I KNOW, YOU HAD TO BE THERE, BECASUE THE ONES THAT WERE THERE COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS SO FUNNY. I mean, tears down your face, side hurting, cant catch your breath, laughter....
the rain lets off a bit, FIRE on the WATER, someone yells. the sunset was a big bright orange ball of fire, setting into the water, slowly getting lowere and lower until the water finally swallows it up and puts it out. Hope that discription paints a picture, cuz I had no camera...two4 and rina, i need you here....kingsley calls agian, so it is time to head back...I am still in a daze and next thing I notice, we are the only one left in the bar. I mean the only ones..the one boat the was left had all the local boys and floyd, about 12-15 deep, and was floating away. so whats up, where is our boat? I'll send someone back for you, he says...OK floyd, we will close and lock up, Jim and I tell him. then our boat comes from around the back, but it was cool for a second, thinking we were the only ones there.
Rina and larry had already enjoyed this trip, but she said they left from the beach, not the river. lots closer for the boat ride.
but it all added to the experience. A likkle rain hitting us in the face, it was getting cooler. we finally get back to black river, and
get to the dock. unloading was harder than loading becasue it was dark. everyone safely off. Janet needs to use restroom and change to dry clothes.
we are in the middle of a neighborhood, the capt takes her to a bar with a restroom around the corner. in a minute he comes back alone. I am eating a sub, waiting, and watching the runnings. a female dog in heat, 2 dominant males and a couple smaller males all wanting a turn...2 dominant dogs fight each other and take turns, and fight again. the woman runs out and yealls and throws something at them while all the men laugh...while the 2 big dogs run awya, the 2 smaller dogs try to get their turn, smallest dog beat down again, woman repeats the throw and the men laugh. I am now looking for janet, no sign of her, dont know where she went and dont see the capt. It is very dark.
Rina rounds the corner, we ready, and i tell her i am looking for janet. we start down the street and then janet appears, so all is good.
loaded and ready to go, kingsley tells us he is running late, and is going to go a likkle faster than normal. all ok with that?
ok, herre we go...don't know what time we left, how far we went, how long it took, but we went fast.
we were dodging potholes, cars, scooters, dogs, thought we clipped about 5-6 things, but narrowing missed...I noticed kingley grab his handle, we call it the oh **** handle, and then i knew it was on...the driver holding on, you know we are in for it...I was buzzing, no one was talking, and the next thing I knew, they are waking me up, "To the cliff or beach first" to the cliffs, please, to the cliffs....hehehe...i got to use the restroom...
we arrive safely and all need a beer...we have a quick nightcap, and make plans to see each other tomorrow at the seastar party...
everyone leaves, janet and I go take a shower, head to Ivans, noone at the bar, have a drink and enjoy the view....we heard rob and lisa were here a likkle earlier looking for us, and had just left. we hear a likkle music in the street.
tonight is the night of the aubie party at ltu, so we thought we might meet some friends...nope, not one person, no noise from seastar, very very quiet....
head back to catch and just enjoy the site.it is very quiet as well, a likkle spooky...
enuff for now....we had a great trip today,,,,
thanks, clarity, my writing style pales in comparison to yours, but I enjoy reliving the memories...you and markus do a 1st class report...trying to get our dates so we can meet up with the turtles as well, maybe new years or april...Quote:

Great report!
yeah, jim, I was between the hedges yesterday as we put together a good 2nd half..gotta get by auburn to get a chance at the sec championship...
worms.....LOL....
thanks sbeth and bj....
the journey continues
saturday morning the power goes out at about 5 am...I go back to sleep for a minute, but am up at about 530am because I am getting stuffy. I go out on the deck. It is still dark, but it is cool out here, so I grab a half eaten sub, and lay on Janets lounger on the deck. I nap until I hear the workers for the new addition stirring around. It is about 7am. I have light now, so walk around catcha, taking a few pictures.

the coffee station is set up, and the coffee is hot. but no other electricity at this point. I get Janet a cup but she is still sleeping.
I take a walk to check out the area, it is early and I figured it would not be much going on, which I was correct. A few taxis picking up people going to work.
walk to debar and back, dont see a lot of anything, but everything is so green and a very peaceful walk...when I get back, the a/c is working and Janet is up. I grap her a couple cups of coffee and get the party started...
we head to enjoy all that catcha has to offer....take pics of us using most of the ammenities. I'll let the pics tell the story.

It is time for lunch...I was checking our the negril message board on the laptop at the resturant at ivans. I saw a post from Living the Dream. He needed the shoe sizes of some people at sharks, which was just down the road from catcha. So our plans for the day are to eat lunch at sharks and dinner at Ivans, before meeting our friends at the Saturday party at seastar tonight. We walk to Sharks, and get the shoe info, but he is not cooking yet. come back about 4pm, he says.

we walk on down to eddies debar and grill to try to get some jerk to take back to eat.

Attachment 19159
no one at the bar, eddie is gone to town, come back later, we are told
as we are gettting ready to walk back, jimmy and carol, jimmy and barbara, show up on their motorcycles.
they get around, they are the only other people we have encountered at catcha, but they are like a moving target...
Attachment 19160
Attachment 19161
change of plans again...eat lunch at Ivans. We have the jerk fish sandwich, which was VERY good. We also had the hamburger. Nothing special about the hamburger, It wasn't bad, but I'm not as big a fan of the beef in Jamaica. i do alot of grilling back home, the little bit of beef I have tried in Jamaica always leaves me disappointed. We also confirm our reservations for dinner with Carol, who is SO VERY HELPFUL, she tried to make us feel like family. No problem, she says, it is slow and you can have your choice of tables. We like our choice so no changes. So the "groove's 4 candle" romantic dinner at Ivans is on for tonight...530, just befoe sunset...
problem is, it is about 130 now and by the time we finish lunch, it is about 2pm. that's ok, we can have drinks, view the sunset and order the meal a little later. Then head to seastar.
getting ready to watch my atlanta falcons play dallas cowboys on sunday night football for all who like football.
so gonna finish up quickly.
I jump a bit, then head back to room to prepare some subs...I have been going hard for a few days now, and since it is so quiet around here, I am gonna take a nap under the umbrella beside the sea...NAP, WTF is going on in my mind, I know I am bored if I am thinking about a nap...LOL....anyways, preparing enuff subs for a day is a task in itself....a labor of love, so to speak...
head back to the spot where janet is getting her rays, and I see a familiar looking person, walking away from me, looking for something. Is that Larry? can't be, they are headed to catcha on sunday, when we leave. But it is Larry, I call out to him but he doesn't hear me. I catch up with him. He was looking for us.He and Rina had just checked in. Somehow Janet got the dates wrong and they are here today for the rest of their stay. tomorrow is our moving day, so we will get to finally see how catchas vibe is with someone to party with.
Rina is a diver, but was a likkle reluctant to just jump...so with a likkle encouragement from me, we start off on many jumps together during the rest of our times together.
the wild thing
Attachment 19172
the water is actually a likkle ruff today,
getting ready
Attachment 19173
and here we go
Attachment 19174
I am a very happy camper. We now have someone to enjoy catcha with. Larry has some reggae mix cd's that he just had recorded...he was getting a likke antsy because their wasn't a cd player in his room, but within minutes, one showed up, and we listened to reggar and enjoyed ouselves...Larry, like janet, had also been eaten up by bugs. So we gave him some aloe plant that we had bought while on the beach...
change of plans again...since we ate so late, we are gonna cancel our Ivans plans, and come back later in the week and visit Larry and Rina and eat supper then. We are just gonna eat at seastar...We are head to room to get ready for seastar...got a few of the sunset, but it was cloudy, so we are glad we are coming back next week for a sunset...

Seastar, live in negril....Seastar, up on west end....I know the words are wrong, who ever gets the words rights...
oh boy, stephen is jumping up and down, yippee....
anyways, Terry, janet, rina, and larry all walk to seastar from catcha...It is already busy, and the band is just taking the stage.
we hook up with two4today and gigi, along with several other boardies we have met...a short list...jimmy and carol, jimmy and barbara, rina and larry, jim and gigi, eric and stephanie, rob and lisa, nycgirl and gwen
we also see carl ricketts, the artist...this man gets around, have seen him many times on this trip...carl dances with several of the ladies tonight...
the buffet was very good, fresh, no complaints from anyone at our table...the bar was hopping, the band was jamming, the pool area was smoking, lol, the drummers were banging, the dancers were popping their hips....it was a blast..Janet doesnt dance, so I don't get to dance much, but everyone was really getting with it. I decided to have a couple of drinks, liked the purple reign that I tried a few days ago, so I ordered a couple of them...then a couple overproof rum runners, and I was feeling great...they started playing HOT, HOT, HOT...chris started passing our white papaer towels and everyone started swinging over their heads and going crazy...my cue to join in...several songs later, I was drenched....we did the conga line, I don't know what all we did, but it was fantastic....

we close the place down....we also say goodbye to two4today and gigi, who are leaving monday morning, so we wont see them again...
almost forgot, we had a special guest singer...stephen west sister, melinda, sang a couple sets...she was an entertainer from a cruise ship, and chris let her sing to us...and she could sing....really enjoy her act...
thats all for now...more when I get some time...
Hey groove if you wanna here that Seastar song, just go to their website you can play it there.
after a long week at work, this site is so refreshing.....
What a sweet picture.
more please...
Wow! We've got to get back to YS Falls this February. It's be 15 years since our one and only trip there. The grounds look a lot more developed and the falls just as beautiful. We've been to the Pelican a few time but never in a rain storm or at Sundown. Kool! Thanks for the report. :)
thanks to all who are keeping up....I have been busy, busy, busy....one day a week at this pace...
anyway the saga continues.
sunday is moving day for us...we leave catcha and head back to the beach...
we have made a few comments about being anxious to get back to the beach...but today, we feel a little different..because of the company of rina and larry, we dont feel so isolated up here on the cliffs...someone to jump with, to drink and eat with, to swim and talk to....
I am up before the rest, walk to store to get minutes for our phone, but too early...everyting slow on sunday, I am told...
Janet gets her coffee, and we head out to the pool/sea area...rina is already in our spot....Larry sleeps in...
Rina does a lot of snorkling...

a little incident that really scared me....rina out snorkleing, and famous vincent out picking up his fares for the day...

But 11 was already here and we were not ready to go...we packed and took our bags to the front desk...since we were checking out, rina wanted our room..they were in the room beside the road...she also loves sitting on the veranda and felt out of place in the one she was in...so she arranged to take over after we left...we took oour last minute things to rinas room and did a hour or so of hanging with our friend...still no sign of larry...

it is now after 1pm, and i tell janet that they prob dont have our room ready anyway, we'll go in a likkle while...so i go from bored and hating the cliffs, cant wait to get to the beach, and now I am putting it off as long as I can. I call our driver at about 2. we say bye to our friends, larry gets up to join us...security guard Ian helps us get everything together and watches as we say our goodbyes...we all have tickets to the andrew tosh show tommorrow night so we will meet up early and head to bourbon beach...
Our review of catcha falling star
we are simple folks...this is the most beautiful grounds we have stayed on...carol was great, made us feel at home, offered to get anything we needed...
I love cliff jumping....Janet really loves the peace and privacy of the place...I think if it were not for me, she would be at home here, but she knows I get bored easily...
all that being said, without rina and larry there, we couldn't wait to get back to the beach...One of those "love to visit, just cant live there" type of things. with a likkle company, it was a very different experience....I can promise that if we were there when it was full, when the bar was hopping, when things were open within walking distance, I would have a better time...but we are still beach people...next reach, we may try a couple more days on the cliffs, don't ever see us giving up the beach, though...
we get back to legends and check into room 307...room 307 has the coldest a/c that I have had in all our stays on the island....we put up our bags, and head to dining for late lunch...I walk in the area with a big WE'RE BACK and we are greeted with big smiles and hugs...they seemed genuine about being happy to see us...I hit the sand and Janet sits at the bar and does her thing...I walk to sunset on the beach and back, fist bumps to all the area hustlers, who have decided not to even waste their time on us anymore....I always have some type of bag with me on my walks, with dog treats and candy, so I make friends easily...I usually have a couple of dogs that walk with me, this afternoon, it was redbull who joined me...
sunday is webcast at seasplash, which is where gigi and two4today were staying, so we decided to check it out. maybe we could catch our friends on their last day...
our driver takes us there and I take a few pics on the way to the bar area..

Loving all the pictures! I'm thinking I may do some jumping off from the cliffs Catcha, but I am not sure I will get quite that high! If I we were talking skiing, I would be looking for the bunny hill. I hope there is a cliff equivalent...
There are plenty of different heights at Catcha, which makes it a great place to jump because you can start at the bunny jump and work your way up if you feel so inclined!
I'm gonna finish up Sunday since my husband is so busy. Please bear with me. I have been a lurker for years but have never posted. We get back from Sea Splash to Legends and clean up a bit for dinner. We almost walked to Sea Splash but our friend insisted on driving us. Said it was too far to walk and let me tell you I'm glad he did. It seemed to be a long haul from Legends. We had a really good dinner. Momma was off and there was a male cooking. Don't know his name since that was the only night I saw him. After dinner, I sat at the bar for a while which was my normal routine. Who knows where Terry was? He likes to stay on the constant move and I am more laid back.
I met a lot of nice people at Legends during our stay. I had some issues communicating with the Italians but we did our best and they were very nice. Tonight I met Chocolate and Sassy from Brooklyn. They were staying at Samsara but had dinner at Legends and were going to do some partying on the beach tonight. I told them we were walking down to Bourbon Beach and to come with us but they said they would be down later. They wanted to have some more drinks first. They mentioned the concert the following night and we told them our friend at BB had the tickets and they could buy them from him. We actually sent several people to our friend to buy tickets.
We got down to BB and not much going on. It was movie night so all quiet and not a lot of people there. We were told everyone was at the local party at the park toward the roundabout tonight. We were sitting at a table talking with some of our friends that work at BB and here come Chocolate and Sassy. We were discussing the VIP tickets with them. I won tickets earlier but we had upgraded those to VIP so I wanted C & S to have VIP too so they would be on the balcony with us. We had to get Chris
(the bartender ) involved as they wanted to know what type liquor was included with the VIP pass. I drink beer so I was not concerned. Chocolate was none too happy (and let everyone know it) that top shelf liquor was not included but after some persuading they said they would purchase the VIP passes. We all hung out for a while and C & S wanted to go to the local party but not by themselves. One of our friends from BB quickly volunteered to take them. We were invited too but I had been drinking all day and didn't think I could handle anything else. We said goodbye and I told them I would definitely see them tomorrow at the concert. I told our friend to take good care of them and he said he would.
Terry helped me back to Legends. I think it was 11:00pm. That's early for me on vacation. I think he went back out and hung out on the beach in front of Legends. I was asleep by 11:05pm.
I've read here that some people don't care for Legends but we had an incredible experience there. The food was good and everyone there knew us by name and were so very nice to use. We did stay there for 9 nights total. They have quite an extensive drink menu included with the AI but not frozen drinks. Only frozen drinks included are strawberry daiquiris and pina coladas since they are already made per a drink machine.
It probably doesn't hurt either that I had an entire suitcase (48 lbs to be exact) of items to give away. We like to take care of the people that take care of us. I know a lot of people would say to buy the items in Negril to help the economy but I am a shopper. Throughout the year when I find items on sale or clearance I buy them, bring them home and throw them in a big box and when it is time for our vacation I usually have too much to even fit in our bags. I probably couldn't get 1/8 of the stuff there for the same price I pay for it here.
When we got back from this last trip in Sept., Terry told me to not even think about starting to buy stuff because we were not taking that much stuff again. It was too much trouble he said and it took lugging an extra suitcase with us. We had been home about a month and I walked in the door with 4 bags of toys and said "I know you are going to killl me but I couldn't resist." I showed him the receipt. The stuff was 90% off. I started laughing when he said "Do they have anymore?" It makes me happy and makes my vacation more enjoyable to see what joy these small items bring to some people. I had mostly small toys (I always buy the lightest items) and candy but also some small perfume sample bottles, lotions, body sprays etc. Coloring books/crayons are always a big hit too. I didn't have room to take regular size coloring books so I ordered 75 coloring books (very small) and small packs of crayons this last time. We did tip also but I have found that these gifts are so very much appreciated.

Makes me smile to hear of people doing great things!:)
I'll do another installment after the falcons game...the andrew tosh, mighty diamonds, sizzla show at bourbon beach
Janet made her first ever post...I'm surprised...I told you she was shy....
Yes Cherry, there are many different levels, as Marley mentioned...build your courage up as the day goes on...
Kaycee, part of her pleasure, (and mine also...ssshhh, don't tell anyone) is seeing the smiles on the likkle ones faces...Janet does get a likkle carried away sometimes, and I have to reel her back in, but it is all good...sweetest woman in the world...btw we love us some savannah....have had several great trips down I-16.....river street on st. pattys week used to be crazy....
