    Things I've learnt from the forum...

    Just a few of my observations as a newbie to Negril...and this is before I've even been there...

    - Ting is a great local soda and mixes well with rum or vodka
    - Great jerk chicken is located in a lot of places, especially in barrels
    - If you're into it you can smoke "sweet" grass most anywhere
    - Over proof rum is very strong
    - Dancing permitted wherever
    - Wear a thong or nothing at all (I have a feeling I'm going back to the 70's)
    - Ackee is a fruit that looks like eggs when cooked..who knew..
    - Red Stripe is Jamaican beer...ok...that was a no brainer
    - Dirty bananas are a good thing
    - Conch soup is apparently really good..I thought conch was just for listening to the ocean
    - The cliffs and da beach are too separate areas
    - Boardies are family..
    - Ya Mon
    - and always.... "Respect"

    Soon come....
    I think I'm going to like Negril
    "When I feel like dancing, I dance. I don't care if anyone else is dancing or if everyone is laughing at me.. I dance.."

    Chris55,looks like you have a good idea of what's what. Negril is my favorite place on the planet and I will look forward to hearing what you think after the fact. Once you go you really do know!

    Dirty bananas are to die for. It's a main staple of my diet in Negril. If you like dirty bananas, you should also try a Hummingbird. Conch soup is really good and so are conch burgers. And you should also try pumpkin soup, and if you're brave, cow hide or chicken foot soup.
