So its a family trip to Negril at new year, the kids are in the pool and wife is planted in a lounge chair for the day as usual( likes to read on vacation,whats with that?). Just so happens the stash of jamaican dollars is runnin low! " hey i need to change some money, think I am goin to the Banmark to change money" I wont be long! "why dont you buy some beach towels while your out"
"I will see if I can find some." lol
Any way I head out to the front gate, just so happens it right around the time the shuttle for the pub crawl is coming by! ( I had no idea, what a surprise! devious grin!) Well since the love bus is here I might as well get in at least I can get to the west end for free. So I am sitting in the bus as they wait for the other passengers (Beach girl 66, and her friend) So off we go, after a few stops to load up the bus we head west.
First stop Miyard!

Our second stop was across the road at Natural Mystic, I had not realized until we were on the bus that beach girl66,s friend was feeling no pain when they got on the bus, although I think I remember seeing her with four drinks at one time around lunck time. lol Natural Mystic is a little place across from Miyard wedged between 2 other board shops hard to see from the road but worth a stop for sure.

There were a lot of people on the crawl this day like 2 bus load that were being shuttled up the west end!
Next stop was Swordfish! (used to be Everytime,Barabuv.) I had ate a meal at this place last trip, the food was good and they have some really good deserts as wel, and now have Devo House iscream.

I guess Beach girl,s friend is a dog lover.lmao Hope she didnt get fleas.
Attachment 8588I didnt get the picture of her hugging that dog was not fast enough getting the camera out.
So next stop up the road we go to C&D country pub. This is one of the favourite stops on the crawl, Connie has some great deserts and food as well, my favourite being the cornmeal pudding!

So next stop, I think was NoLimit, I did not get any pictures there,as I had wandered across the road to Peewee,s which was the next stop.

Still at Peewee,s, the sea was angry that day, so that was a great spot to see the waves come crashing in.

No one was hurt during the mount or dismount of the hammock either.lol
So after gathering up the group, next stop was Salt and Peppas, I have no pictures from there as I believe I was enjoying a few Redstripes by this time anyway this is the place now serving up burritos and quesadillas.
So from there it was on to Sir |D,s Firewater, Lovenest whatever you prefer. This is one of the best places to view the sunset in all of Negril with a view of all the other tourists over at Rick,s.

So while we there this guy that was on the crawl was trying to open a nut or something with a pocket knife and slices himself open! For real! So I am thinkin whats with this bad luck place.lol I went on the pub crawl in august and this women stumbled on the rocks and bumped her head and got all bruised up, now this guy slices himself open! So I am not good with blood and that kinda stuff so I bolt outa there on foot! The guy was layin on the floor with a his hand all wrapped up. (ends up he was ok, so was the women that fell before too) So off I go down the road and as I am passin Rick,s I see my friend Charma, she has a souvenier stand across from Rick,s and for whatever reason I remember,"towels" So I make a deal and get a couple towels! (cant believe I remembered to get the towels) Oh and by the way in between stops Lembart the bus driver brought me to Banmark to change money too! (Thanks again Lembart! and yes I did tip him.) So anyway for some reason besides happy hour was not over yet down Seastar lane I head, mmmm a filthy dirty banana for me or two! Anyway the rest of the pub crawlers end up showing up there shortly after!
I cant remember how we got back to Fun Holiday, but it was just in time for dinner! Wow cant believe it took that long to go exchange a few bucks! I thought the fact that I remembered the towels would make it ok that I disapeared for the afternoon, but apparently not! (she is still mad and keeps bringing it up to this day,WTF) I just got a little sidetracked.
This is hilarious.I love it. Honey I'm gonna change some money , I'll be right back.I've done this and seen it done to me more than once in Negril. First question is Hey , where you been ?and then I start laughing my #@$ off.
Ooooo, well at least you got the money and the towels. LOL:p
Hahahah understandable dave! As I was following this..when at the end you were talking about the towels I was thinking " good job Dave with all the injuries you were being prepared by having towels to soak up the blood ! Until I remembered " OH the wife sent you for towels!" Hahaha so see...its understandable how you got tracked off in all the excitment....
It sounds like next time I better come along , you need a nurse on these runs " Ill bring supplies" lmao!:D
Great story, excellent pics...
I tkink there was a nurse there, but there can never be too many nurses at a pub crawl Patty!
Talking to the guy the other night who owns Sunset After Dark and he says only two guys fi nished that burger...one with a side of 12 wings. Some guy from Windsor, he said.
I have finished that burger several times!
It's sometimes easier to ask for forgiveness than permission
You gotta have a hollow leg. We barely finished it between two of us.
Especially ones full of...........fun....lolQuote:
