The last part is just a blur: swim, sun, eat, drink, play, play, play.

God I miss Jamaica. It's exactly one month since I've been home, and I think about Negril all the time. The little town on the little island touches me in everything I do -- I even dream about it at night.

I still can't exactly put my finger on why there is such a strong impulse to return. I guess I feel really, really, really free in Negril.

I gave a bunch of stuff away on my last morning. As I pulled up Seastar Lane on my motor bike for the last time before Clive's would pick me up, I witnessed what looked like a bullying incident between boys, but it turned out they were all cousins. Tough kids, that's all I will say. One of the local neighbors said everything was OK.

It was just me and the driver on the way back. He drove fast because we spent an extra 30 minutes or so trying to track down a pick-up at Sunset on the Palms, but the peeps never showed up. But the foray gave me a chance to look at the property, take in the sights and smells, and I was happy enough to be able to report my findings (nice place) to a fellow boardie who've I've befriended over the months.

That's what negril.com is all about -- helping others and sharing. I've so enjoyed all the reports, reading 'em and writing 'em.

I know I've pushed the envelope a bit, perhaps hurt a few feelings along the way (including my own), and I'm sorry about that.

I probably got taken advantage of a bit, but I've taken advantage of a few myself. Negril can get a little crazy sometimes, and so can I. We're a perfect mix.

Gerryg123- I look forward to your every post. No sorry's ever !! And for what, I think you have said it all, " I feel really, really, really free in Negril" / "My heart is in Negril".
Keep up your writings, it makes us all fell free, until we return again. Have a blessed day, my friend.

Nice report Gerry G! Thanks for sharing!

Gotta agree!!! Really enjoyed all your posts and pictures. The comment of feeling free....somehow that rings true. Away from all the pressures of home...in a little piece of paradise that feels so much like home...."free to just be me" It is crazy how this little island has captured so many hearts and souls...irregardless of its shortcomings...we love her! That is what true love is all about!! :)

So looking forward to being back "home" again in December......Thanks for all the updates during your trip!

Nice trip report! Enjoyed it!
