Sunsets, Rum, Sand and Gizzadas 97 Days in Negril

Maybe more Night Nurse?? (hopefully)

Hello all . . . . just a quick note to let you know that I am back in Ottawa. And it's cold.
No more sun, no more sand, no more gizzadas. But I do have rum.
My accommodations were entered by a thief on Thursday night (2:30am) and my laptop was taken - I was in my bedroom (awake) when it happened. So I was a little shaken up and I decided to go back home.
I had a security lapse, even though I had my security grill closed. Long story. The police came and are involved.
Anyhow - my fault. Dumb.

So obviously this is the end of my trip report.

In the grand scheme of things, not a big deal, but right now I'm somewhat turned off on Negril.
It was nuff fun while it lasted.

Adios.

Ugh.. Sorry that happened to you. At least you're okay and safely back home. No doubt your wife is relieved.

[Jenn]

Glad you are safe ~ sorry this happened to you.

So sorry. Your story was great and always the first update I looked for. Sad to see it end this way.

Sorry to hear this news but am glad you are safe and with loved ones. Was looking forward to seeing you again this year and chatting. I am sure it has put a bad taste in your mouth for Negril. Times are tough all over and desperate people do desperate things. I have so many questions to ask, but respect your privacy about the matter. One does question if it was random or premeditated. Walk Good Roland and thanks for another ride.

Sorry to hear this Kahuna...I'm not liking these constant reports of robberies, and other negative things...I know things are tough there, but they are going to get worse if the tourists stop coming...I guess I will have to wait until April and decide for myself if I want to return... Glad you are home safe

Kahuna, at the risk of sounding like a heretic, have you ever considered a stay on another part of the island? The love you have for the scenery, your enjoyment of the less touristed elements of the country, your ability to flex would all come together to make Jamaica seem fresh again. And who knows, it may trigger a whole different saga.

Thanks for your sensitivity and insight. Love your writing. Take good care !
