Well, we didnt make it back to Pressa's on Monday..I had Les run over there and tell her we would come by on tuesday instead..So tuesday morning we went and just couldn't decide what to have..but I always go back to french toast..I was trying to talk Les in the ackee and saltfish..(so I could say I ate it by tasting his!)..but he wanted french toast also..When they bring us our bfast...she comes out with a separate plate of ackee and saltfish for us to taste! Awesome, and we both liked it!! Then she brought out an ackee and showed us how it looks raw and how they cook it!! Perfect..we just met the nicest people!! She wanted to visit some more but we had to get to the beach..We went back to the room.. I put my jeans shorts, 3 prs of earrings, bug juice, fly swatter, dish soap..you name it...into a bag and Les brought it back to her..He said she was so appreciative. Ok, here we go..We get a cab..older man..very nice..We tell the driver that we really haven't been much farther than Kuyuba so if he could just bring us a few blocks from there we could see a little more of the beach..on our walk to lobster..We did have a few hours to go..We really cannot get it thru to him what we want.. He says, "I will bring you to a place you will like...beach chairs...bathrooms...good food..etc..We say, "but we just want to go a little farther than Kuyuba..so we can walk back." Hes not getting it...we finally give up..We let him go...more and more scenery and we are thinking..Where the F are we going?? Les says to me, "You know we are going to have to take a cab back when he drops us off..?" "Yes." I say..we will....(just too Minnesota nice..with a little passive thrown in!) He is such a nice guy..and he tells us that he would like to go on a vacation where he can relax and go naked if he wants to ..etc..I'm thinking OK whats happening here?? He lets us off at Cosmos..I hadn't even heard of that place..We say 'thanks' and I kid with him some and say.."Well, I'm not getting naked!!!" (lol?)...he says "oh I would like to see you naked!" Les says.."He was totally looking at your a-- when you got out!" Now, I am not a small woman by ANY stretch of the imagination...and am almost 60..so I feel sorry for his taste in women.. but we laugh while we are walking thru Cosmos..straight to the water, hang a left, and hit the beach walking..We actually were glad for this little mishap..We saw soooo much...and stopped to have Tings in a few places..Awesome!!! I cannot believe I walked all the way past Kuyuba from Cosmos..I have a bad right knee...had absolutely no problem! We get to our lobster hut...and its all boarded up..this guy told us he was open 7 days a week..24 hours a day..while we didn't quite believe that..we did think he was going to be there..We hadn't given him any money..so I really do not care..I am just looking at that beach!!!!The sign on the hut says...24 hr cafe..lobster...We were a little early so we just waited..pretty soon the guy with the food stand next door comes over and talks to Les..thinks its a shame this guy isn't here yet...Les tells him we are a little early...I go into the ocean..I just swim, and bob, and swim some more..I tried leaving a couple of times but the ocean kept pulling me back..literally..just couldn't get out! But did not care! Pretty soon there is a crowd of locals around Les..talking, visiting..I think..I better go see whats happening! The guy next door is still there and tells us..if we change our minds..hes got some lobster cooking..we say cool..and we wait..and we watch him give food to soooo many people..we are starting to get hungry! There are also 2 ladies there now..and another young man..they think this guy is very irresponsible..we tell them that hes not that late.. The one lady tells me she used to be fat like me..nice...but she didn't mean it in a bad way..just honest! The younger guy is telling us that he knows someone at Jamrock a few feet the other direction that will cook us some lobster..We tell him we will let him know..in the mean time the one honest lady keeps trying to call this guy that was a no show..and just shakes her head! So the young guy comes back with the actual cook he was talking about..he tells us that this guy can cook us some lobster..we finally say.."OK!"..We go to his bar/hut..now thats my idea of a beach bar..old wooden benches..just a parrot-heads dream! he says I can cook you lobster for $20 a piece..Les tells him that we were told we could have lobster for $15!!!!! the cook says...'OK!"..Here we go! He says, it will take him 15 minutes..(we are thinking, gee we have to get back to SS to check out by 9pm since we were leaving so early the next morning...so were a little concerned about time.)..The cook leaves and we sit there oh, maybe 1 1/2 hours...(thinking, thank God, we didn't give him any money!!)..He comes back with live lobsters..and shows them to us! Yes, they look good..(like I would know the difference..never had a live lobster before..)He gets us a Red STripe, turns on the tunes and goes to work cooking..In the meantime there is a lady next door with the cutest little boy..like 7 months..just a cuddler..we had to go over there..I HAD to buy something..and I HAD to hold that baby!! She was a nice lady also..She was asking me about Les's missing hand and I was telling her about the accident and she kept saying..OH LORD JESUS!!.When I told her the accident could have been worse she says...OH THANK YOU LORD JESUS!!!.. When she closed up shop she came over and blessed us and our family!! I am totally going to buy all souveniers at the beach next year..Finally, the cook brings us a placemat..fork...etc.. Les had asked him if we could have it to go..and he had said that it would be no problem..so we were wondering about the placemat..Les reminded him and he said.."Yes, but taste it first and see if you like it." Like it..are you kidding me...SSSSSSOOOOOO good! While we were getting the dinner the original cook came over and said.."I was late because I was on a tour..you should have waited for me." Les told him that the night before we had said we may be pressed for time..and reminded him of that..He said, 'OK' and left.. a little hurt by the whole thing..The cook that cooked our lobster just laughed..His name is Omar but they call him Big Daddy..because he just had a baby..We ask, Big Daddy, the quickest way to get back out to the road..we kind of hated to walk past the original cook to go the way we came..Big Daddy says, "Follow me."..We do..and let me tell you..it wasn't long before we thought..we are sooooooooo stupid!!! He led us thru an abandoned resort area..telling us to duck under the live wires..there was a girl in one of the abandoned rooms...I think making a living!..It looked like the end of the world..deserted...We thought to ourselves..nice choice..follow some guy we just met thru this maze of old buildings..yes, wise decision! But sure enough..he led us out to the road..opened the big old wooden gate and we hugged him and he kissed our cheeks..(yes Les also)..and we were on our way!! What an incredible experience!!! When we got back to SS and officially checked out..Les said we needed to go back over to Pressa and talk to the lady that we gave the stuff to...he said he told her we would..so we did..hugs there also..Back to the room..pack, pack, pack! The next morning security woke us at 5am..we went out front and waited for the shuttle..as we waited...it was soo quiet and peaceful...no traffic..so no honking noises..nothing but a rooster..what a perfect morning, even though sad for me..The shuttle picked us up and had a few problems with other people in other hotels actually getting out of bed but we made it in time to the airport..We didn't have a long line..perhaps because we were leaving on a Wednesday..not sure.. An uneventful 4 hour trip back to Minnesota.. The next day I am visiting with my Mom who had stayed at our house to watch our dogs and cats..and the phone rang.. Les said..."Its for you." "Who is it? I ask..he just smiles..and hands me the phone..It was the manicurist..Imanie Walcott.. Asking if we made it home safely,...yadda, yadda....I tell her yes, everything is fine..she tells me that the guy that was her boss when we were getting our nails done..found out she did Les's nails for free...(which she did not and she had the original $10 AND the tip) and she got fired..She would like to get a job at Seasplash...but would need $5000.00 to rent the space!!! I told her.."Gee thats too bad..let us know how it works out for you!"...she says "I will just have to find $5000.00 and it will be ok..." I say...."Gee and we don't have any money to give you...Good luck with that and keep in touch!".. Do not think we will hear from her again..Ok ...Message board..thanks for all the advice and comments...My next years trip will be easier to trip report now...I will still be trying to post some pics when I get some help from one of the kids.....or get a new computer!!!!!! <3
