We've always wanted to attend this festival. We are big into southern BBQ and its part of our living. We have always found jerk style interesting and we appreciate the conversations and tips from local cooks.

I will admit we are probably not ones for really loud music, but we knew when we booked the trip it would be loud and we are also staying fairly close by 3Dives which we always have done on past trips. Just like that area and the hotels there.

At the same time we come prepared. We realize we might hear the noise from our hotel room so we bring a small white noise machine that is great for that kind of situation. Siesta time...no problem mon.

I've months to figure it all out, but I can almost taste the Jerk!

PS: Can anyone tell me if the price of admission includes being able to eat samples from vendors or is that a separate individual price?
