Trip Report Day 4 - Cliff exploration

[Jillhil1]

Sorry for the delay, actually had to work some....

Anyway we got a little taste of the cliffs on Day three. We saw Blue Cave Castle on the way and decided we should check it out so we went there for breakfast the next day. It was a beautiful morning but the sea was too rough to enter (for us at least.) We first were led into the little restaurant area and thankfully the women asked if we wanted to eat at a table by the water. Wow was that beautiful and nice. The food was good as I remember although I can't remember exactly what I got.





It looked like a good honeymoon location. I think that I will remain a beach girl. I do love the cliffs and actually like swimming in that kind of water but I dont love walking on the west end road. I love doing the walk down the beach stopping for drinks/eats on the way.

We decided to walk down the road to Home Sweet Home and maybe have a drink and use the pool.

I saw a post that said Home Sweet Home does not allow outsiders to use their pool on this board. That was not the case on the day we got there. Of course there really was nobody using it but the bartender had no hesitation in saying no problem when we used their pool. Of course we bought some drinks. He was a nice bartender, I guess he does SeaSplash karaoke on Monday night. Unfortunately we did not make it down there. This is the view from Home sweet HOme



On the way back we stopped at Time Square which does have pretty decent prices for souvenirs. Wow did Bob Marley miss out on protecting his image or what?

We went back to the cliffs for dinner (we spent a lot of money on taxis) We talked to some people at Sun Beach and they told us how good the Mac and Cheese was on Jenny's menu. That was a first for me because I did not see mac and cheese on any menus. Being that it is our daughters favorite food and she hasn't eaten much, we decided to check it out.



Very nice clean place and all the food was good. I got brown stew chicken. I generally love stews. Jenny's was good, although I pictured brown stew chicken as having pieces of stuff more like a stew. This was chicken with a thin brown sauce. So for all you picky eaters, this is a tame dish. The mac and cheese was good, it was whitish, not the yellow we are used to. My husband got curry chicken which was also good.

Not much else for this night, tomorrow snorkeling, beach crawl, and Bourbon Beach

I was reading an interview with Ziggy Marley's wife the other day. She was talking about the promotion of the Marley movie and things related to it. She told the interviewer that they believed Bob Marley merchandise would sell about 1billion dollars, but 600 million of it would be counterfieted Bob Marley merchandise, dvd's, cds, etc. She then talked about how they have to sue for trademark and copy right all the time. I'll see if I can find the interview again and post it. I was in awe over the 600 million number.

"The biographical movie about Bob Marley is scheduled to premier on April 20 and is expected to set off a surge in demand for the Reggae legend's music and products. Hilco Consumer Capital, the private equity fund that owns the Bob Marley merchandise franchise, estimated in 2009 that global sales would soar to one billion dollars; however, out of this figure, $600 million are chalked up to unlicensed sales."
