May I ask about Treasure Beach? Are you staying there or doing a day trip?

I stand corrected. Yes getting very excited. Reading as much as we can about Negril? Actually finding myself waking up at 3 in the morning with Negril on my mind. Sometimes even logging into the forums because I can't get back to sleep :-)
I forget how fun the west end can be. Last couple of times down to da rock has been with rookies, so they are naturally attracted to and comfy with the beach. I enjoy the trip reports and being able to "see" Negril through someone else's eye's. The next time someone tells me how beautiful the snow is, I will hit them over the head(kiddin) with my snow shovel. Man, I need to get outa here.......
Back to the trip report....
Our second HUGE ROOKIE mistake... we completely wasted $1,000!...
We make it back to CoCo. Hammerstiened- rum n tingin it. Feeling good- after such a fun partay. I think we were so happy to get back we COMPLETELY FORGOT... to eat! So we all got a good laugh... As 5 minutes ago Donald says "Hope to see you guys soon" ... "Bet you didnt think it was gonna be that soon!" So he swings back and takes us to the corner bar for some sweet sweet fried chicken. You know how when your drizunk things just taste sooo gooooood... well this was indeed the case. $1000 Jamaican was the price for the ride back up to the West end and back to beach.
I reach into the fridge for a little bit more cake pop a couple more stripes on the porch and we call it a night!

We wake up SOOOO WELLLL RESTED! Its amazing how sound we sleep in Jamaica. Again we awaken to the soothing sounds of the beach. Nothing planned for today... but it is starting to set in that tomorrow will be our last day in Negril before heading to the South Coast. Bittersweet....
Today we do nothing but relax... at one point it rained pretty heavy during one of our walks- so we did take shelter. The name of the place was the Giddy House. Cool place with a cool vibe. They were also serving up some tasty lobster patties so we got a couple of dem. Heres a couple photos from the Giddy House
I rarely use the term L.O.L.- as Im just not a laugh out louder kind of guy... although at two different times during the day- I sure did LOL
#1... a great line... Im at a beer shack on the road and ask the guy for some "Lion Pride"... he returns "Yes... do you have any lion bud?" yeah.. I laughed out loud to that one
and then not too longer after that...
#2... another good one... were on the beach and this guy comes up to us and says all excited, "HEY!!! rememeber me?" hmmm... (no) "Im the guy from the first day of your first trip here" ... Oh man I cracked up- I even told him "Dude, that is a freekin good one!"
We bought a cool lion that day... it actually ended up being wifey's "SubstiMoogy"! See she always sleeps with her favorite cat (Moogy) in this one position- right up by the pillow. At night I would slip in the lion as her cat's substitute... so we started calling the lion "SubstiMoogy"
Heres a couple pics of the sunset that evening...
That night we decided to head to the Rockhouse and call for their free pickup service. Well we sat out by the road for about 3 stripes and ended up cabbing it... to Chio Jamaica. Awesome dinner but we were super tired so no craziness that night. Just another sound sleeeeep...
Great stuff so far. Sounds like our paths need to cross one of these time.
true dat Flip.... true dat!
Wakey wakey... another perfect day in paradise!
Today's our last day in Negril... not knowing what to expect of the South Coast, we take time today and widdle off some our Christmas shopping list.
Its funny... we've never stayed anywhere before with actual 'security'... so any interaction with any passerby selling goods was interesting... You say hello and within seconds the security guy is just standing there eirily quiet... just watching. The only noise he made was when I pulled the 'bundle' technique. The lady was telling me what each piece of jewelry costs, and I was like yeah individually... but I want the bundle price. He just mummered "yes... bundle price" in agreement. It was funny and strange having security around... its like.. yeah, bud- its okay I can talk to people on my own thanks! I guess it was just different to us- because we never experienced that.
We did a lot more extreme floating that day and eventually made it over to Treehouse continue to eat through our $150 credit- that was no problem. We met Gail- man I couldve sopped her up with a biscuit shes so happy and awesome!
We stopped over at Aunties and had one of those super deep converations with Nackus. He was super happy with himself going all natural and was excited to share how great he felt because of it.
Back at Coco we dip in the hottub a bit. Its nice and secluded... and its actually HOT! A hot hot tub in Negril... a first for us!
I called Petrona at the Castle just to let Teddy know to expect us for dinner tonight- we also put our orders in now- again just to make sure all is good. We cab it up to the West End and was greeted with Petrona's big smile. She is just as sweet as they come. Teddy is also happy to see us so we chat for a bit, explore the grounds take a dip and have a wonderful meal... yup you guessed it... Teddy's Lobster Thermadore Mmmmmm....
All sauced up from the wine at dinner we head over to No Limit for some rum n ting and roadside dominoes. Linstons coming at noon tomorrow to take us to Treasure Beach, so we cab it back to CoCo and get in one last 'tub' in our room.
Life is great...
No... its EFFIN AWESOME
Great report and pictures Murph,please keep them coming!!
