Re: **Off-site Trip Report [[ part #1 ]]
[[ continue-ing ]]
i forgot to mention,
that day,
on my way
via route taxi
from Lucea to Negril (to go to the barber)
i had to make a couple of stops
first,
i had to stop at Mr.Bigga
to give him a dvd-copy of those videos i'd taken a few days before,
with info on how to find them on YouTube & on the negril.com message board.
mi-SAY (to self), as i sat in the taxi on the way to GreenIsland:::>> ".. if i stop, and get out of the taxi,,,, that'll mean I've got to catch ANOTHER taxi, with an additional fare, to go to Negril..."
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
that (above) was my from-foreign brain and mentality talking ..... that was NOT the Jamaican-side of my likkle-pea-brain speaking.
i immediately switch to my Jamaican brain-cells.
.

.
when the taxi passed the GreenIsland HighSchool,
i lean-ed over
....i was sitting in the front seat...
and told the driver:::>> "..I wanna stop, and drop-off '..this..',,, [[showed him the DVD]] at Bigga's blah blah raa.."
he-SAY:::>> "..Sure.."
we reach Bigga's
taxi pull onto the shoulder in front of Bigga's
Mr.Bigga is sitting in the shade at his shop, on his throne
he see's me .... waves... i wave.... i jump out the taxi .... trot to him ... he get's up ... comes toward me ... i hand him the DVD .... "..I'll call you back later about this.." .... "..OK.."
i turn around
trot back to the taxi
get in
we pull off::: onward to Negril
mission accomplished
NOT one of the other 3 passengers in the route-taxi said a word.
:-)
'cause THIS is how they roll in Jamaica, with the '..tourist-don't-use.." route-taxi system
.
.
* sigh *
i sure-love that Jamaican route-taxi system
BUT DON'T you other tourist/foreigners use 'em ----- the route taxi ain't for you
