Like that rain shot at the Corner Bar, what better place to be stuck in the rain...a bar....and in JA.....sure better looking at that photo than all the rain we have been having in Georgia the last couple days!! We have mud hole...I will refrain from using the word puddle in the road going to our house that was literally almost across the one lane gravel road that goes to our house and it was probably 6inches deep this morning!! Yes....I live in rural North Georgia BUT....the little one lane gravel road is a dead end....our house and 2 others. Wouldn't live anywhere else our 10 acres of private heaven on a creek!!.....would like to have an annual extended stay in JA in the Winter!!

Still loving the reports....keeping me going....

Enjoying your reports!

Thanks,

PGW and I took my GF to Scrub-a-dub. We told her it was an after hours dance club. Got there around 2:30 - 3am. I was in trouble.

I didnt really lie to her, I just left a few details out.

VVHT – yes, The Corner bar, The Seaview Sports Bar, The Hooker Bar – all one and the same place.

Lady Jane – That’s cool that Myrna’s getting a painting. I’ll check it out, take a photo and post it.

HillCity Gurl – we had another big downpour last night and the clouds are builing up again this afternoon – seems to be developing a patter.

Crusher – you poor guy, I feel sorry for you, I used to live in Regina – the winters are unbelievable there. Go Riders!


If you walk the road that leads to Savannah la Mar in the morning you’ll see the bike taxi guys hanging out at the Redground corner opposite the Shell Station, I think it’s called Winner’s Plaza. There’s usually a posse of about a dozen or so, sprawled on the seats of their bikes, talking loudly to each other as they scrutinize passers-by for possible fares. I believe the route bike fare is currently set at $100J for a ride in the local area. Boldly painted on the concrete wall directly above where they are parked is a sign that states: ‘ABSOLUTLY NO BIKE TAXIS’.

Each time we go by I catch snippets of conversation between the bike taxi guys that are laced with multiple ‘klaat’ dis-or-dat’s. Palpable waves of testosterone emanate from these guys.

The bikes they ride are clean and shiny; they look well maintained. Some of the bikes have had horn modification kits done on them. Car horns have been installed, not the feeble ‘beepy’ type, but the loud ‘honking’ kind. The horns themselves are proudly mounted and painted in bright colours. Like most drivers in Negril, the route bike guys believe that honking the horn repeatedly as you approach a blind corner at breakneck speed projects a force field that will protect them from impacting whatever may lie ahead.

Cool cat at Sunnyside.



Check the heart tatt on her butt.


These goats were checking out the sidewalk. Their owner was walking them. She asked me if I wanted to buy one. I said they were too small.

I think you have made the only sense of the bike horns! "creates a forcefield protecting them from impact"

Although I was with Flip and his girlfriend, I thought all first time tourists knew what a club was in Jamaica? Espeacially with the name Scrubadub!

That little cat at Sunnyside is awesome. She walks right up to women and lets them pet her, but meows then hisses right away at men...just like a woman! I think she has kittens back towards the restrooms somewhere, at least that is what Tony said. Great trip report....I think I seen you and JT by the bank the day you were having him over for dinner, but I could have sworn he had shoes on!?
