    Trip report, Boardie Bash 2014...best trip yet

    this report brought to you by the regulars at the suck, bang and blow bar!!!!lmbo...

    flip got fired up every time Rasta Stan made this announcement...

    Our 5th trip to Negril and it turned out to be the best...thanks to all the great people that we shared time with...

    I left on my trip on my birthday on April 16th...bed at 230 up at 430am, take the Groomes transportation for the 1.5 hrs to the ATL airport...

    no problems...landed in MoBay at 1144am...rounded the corner and saw the biggest line I ever encountered...both sides full and lined up thru the que lines and up the ramp...

    well after 1.5 hours, i finally got through...gather my checked bags and then stand in the customs line, after 30 minutes in this line, i get to the front and am told that i need to go to the declare line...Too many bags for one person...i had 2 checked bags, a carryon and a laptop case, all full to the rim...I get to the declare line, get all my bags searched and thrown all over the place, they confiscate most of my water guns for promoting violence to the kids, lol, amongst the crayons, books, toys, flash cards, candy, tooth brushes, etc that we had...i was not the only one getting searched and getting aggrivated...I didnt know if my driver was still there...but finally, i am there...and i see my name on a cardboard and there is my ride...it is now 220, 2.5 hours later...

    but in 15 minutes, i have started my 1st sub and am getting to know my new driver....Godwin transfers...love godwin...

    Godwin asks if i am in a hurry, and I said no, I am all good now...so we cruise slowly, talking about the various places as we pass through....in most other trips, we are getting there as fast as possible due to my request, but godwin made this trip more laid back and it was great...stopped at the Sly Bar in Green Island for a stripe and a sub...lol common theme around here...lol...https://scontent-b-atl.xx.fbcdn.net/...34953464_n.jpg

    godwin asked if i mind if he picked up a guy on the road, and i said no, i dont care...so we back up and pick up Rocky...he is a bartender at tamboo...

    Rains on the way in...rains while i check in...rains while i get settled...i have my phone and place an order for some subs, i like a variety, and then go to varanda and watch the rain fall...it is really coming down....lasts about 30 more minutes...I am very happy with my room....

    I walk to yellow bird..it is about 6 so i get a round of 2 4 1 dirty bannanas...and as they are closing get one more 2 4 1 purple rain, and walk to sunnyside/myrnas store...get a couple fruit juices for the room..I love the minute maid fruit chillers...not the same as the ones here..Rains again until sunset...i pick up a box lunch at one mile, get a 6pack of stripe and stock the fridge in the room for the night...chat with Janet for awhile on fb...wed is roots night, live band with a cover...about 4 people in there at 1030, so head to bourbon beach...alot more people...dj, and dancers...early night due to the long travel day, back in the room by midnight...

    up at 830...out to the beach...I decide to walk to Negril Palms and check out our next place to stay...It is all the way at the "other" end of the beach...we have never stayed past white sands, and have only walked this end a few times...so off i go...

    stop at Bar B Barn, where I see regulars John and Bettye...we met these two at Bbb last year, they are from our home state of georgia, about 3 hours away from us..they have been coming 20+ years, and are staying 77 days this trip...

    talked to Michael, security at Legends...love me some michael

    stop at Myrnas store for a juice and some cheese, got a piece of warm coco bread from beach vendor and that was breakfast.

    walked to the Palms, checked out the property, made sure our reservations were good, and then my walk back..
