Short report.
Shopping day sitting at Bar B Barn watching the game and eating chicken! More soon!!

Well as predicted we were through immigration and customs in like 15 minutes. Fastest time ever!! Club Mobay? Join Club Crusher! :P
We made our way outside to what I am sure you have all experienced....the best feeling in the world....the realization that you have arrived in Jamaica! Mi Doc was waiting and we loaded up our baggage and unloaded the cooler into the car!! Whoo Hoo!! Gotta love family that arrives at the airport with ice cold Red Stripes in tow! We headed out of Montego and head towards Negril.
Its amazing as you read the signs as they go by......Lucea.....Green Island....the anticipation grows but the sense of calm just takes over you. We were going to stop at Best in the West but decided to just head to the condo's. When we arrived we hit up the security guy as he had our key. Transferred the baggage to the room.....made plans for shopping on Sunday and hugged our blessed friend Doc a good night. After our travel day we were ready for some sleep. I did manage to figure out the TV....which had actual channels and the AC.....so the sleep was restful and comfortable. NBCC is nothing fancy but our condo is awesome. Nice little kitchen big fridge. Oh the possibilities.
I woke up early as always. Went out and snapped a pic of the ocean as the sun came up. I will share that tomorrow morning. It was so calm and beautiful and I enjoyed my time alone on the beach with a cold red stripe.
Every year...because of my appearance....we put a bet on how long it is on the beach before I get offered some subs. Well if you bet on 13 minutes this year folks you are the proud owner of what its like to be me! LOL!
I got squared away with the condo management and paid out my bill and began the wait for mi Doc to come so we could go and do some shopping at the Hi-Lo. It wasn't busy at all when we got there. You do get a sideways look when you order 5 - 24's of Red Stripe though....and say....."I'll be back".....we were through quick and got lots of fresh groceries for me to play with in our little Jamaican Kitchen!
We made our way to GOA....apparently we were either too early or too late for the webcast.....but had a drink and made our way back to our condo. Unloaded what seemed to be a lot of groceries and beer.....
That's when our day really started. We went and jumped in the ocean....there is no feeling like that first feeling of the ocean in Negril when you get back home. So refreshing and so much like a recharger on my batteries. I enjoyed every minute of it. After we made our way out of the ocean we decided Bar B Barn sounded like a good idea. The game was on and I was famished after only eating plane food etc the day before. We walked down the beach and although it was only a short distance I was offered in no particular order ganja, hash, cocaine(like a fat guy from Canada does coke....ooooops sorry Rob Ford) and various other instruments to get me right with Jamaica!
We arrived the game was on the Red Stripes were cold and the Jerk Chicken was just coming off the barrel!! Oh my it was a little slice of heaven. Stayed for five or so stripes and a few cigars! Then we headed back to the room where I sit now sharing this with you.
Karaoke at Travellers later on tonight so if you are in Negril and want to be blessed with my wife's beautiful voice you know where to find us. She's talented that way....I just used to beat people up for a living! :P
Pictures and stuff on my next post. Soon come my friends!

Thanks for the report Crusher. We arrive there in 18 days so I hope you will give us an update on how everything is at NBCC; restaurant, bar, pool and I know this is pushing it but the hot tub?
Hey, thanks for the post. It sounds like you are enjoying!
Enjoying your report, glad you made it to place we all love. Looking forward to some more tomorrow. The cracks about Ford I think will be around for awhile for us Northener's.
Cheers
CC great to see you made it, got your groceries and bought enough beer for the week :-) I'm thinking it was the S.F. - Carolina game you got to see. (I'm a long time Patriots fan so I got my fix last night). We have 12 days till we hit the sand so it's your responsibility to get us through the DIF until then.
Remember, life is too short to behave. You have lots of time to recover when you get home :-)
Very nice.
Rum....The Condos are being run well as always by Jean and her staff can't speak to the Mariner's part of the complex. The bar is open...200J Red Stripes....and so is the restaurant. They are being run by a girl named Shondru. The food is good but basic and the service was good as well. Nicole is very friendly and we had a few laughs with her.Originally Posted by Rumlover
