I wake up Tuesday morning. Today is a big day. I don't need to be redundant anymore relative to my rituals upon awakening.....I do my usual 'get wet' and subsequent 'get baked' lol....Breakfast at the Tamboo....Today was the the day most of Mr Black's children left....Mr Black owns the place and has 29 kids....yep, that's right, 29.....I think 18 or so were there....Really nice people and they all seemed to enjoy each other's company. I met Sean and his 9 year old son.....and the son was the nephew to his 5 year old uncle....I know, you gotta think about that one a bit....With 29 kids, anything is possible.

Dwayne picks me up at 10ish. The plan is to start on the West End and start at Barney's Hummingbirds. After an $18 entrance fee (not including my local friend!!) I quickly decided I'd find a hummingbird elsewhere. I've made a series of videos so far and posted many on Negril Boardies on FB and soon Youtube. I've been to the Lighthouse a million times but wanted a video so Dwayne and I met Mr. Johnson and we scaled it. What a view. Words will never do it justice so I won't attempt to.

It's 11 ish....We hit Sir D's....My favorite bar in Negril....and of course we are the only ones there. We have a few beers...I take my customary video....and now it's on to Half Moon Beach. I heard about Calico Jack's Pirate Shack and I'm ready to check this place out.

For those not familiar with Half Moon, it is a private beach only 15 minutes outside of Negril. It's a $5 per person entrance into the beach and only a $5 roundtrip boat fare to Calico Jack's which is probably a 10 minute voyage mas or menos. The Red Stripe was 400J....I didn't mind since I think I paid more at the Pelican Bar...They had an outstanding lunch, however, and was quite reasonable for US standards at $10....A plate full of chicken, rice and a great pasta salad....Upon arrival, it was just Dwayne and I but soon others showed up....More Wisconsinites....We chat football and hang out a couple hours....There are some little kids on the island now so I wander around to ensure that my sub activity stays as clandestine as possible. I loved the place and posted a great video! Like Pelican, though, it is really only the type of place to spend a few hours....Things add up quickly! Then, though, when don't they?

Dwayne has a 5 PM pickup in moBay so I head back to homebase at the Tamboo. I stop at the usual haunts....ran into some Boardies at Sunnyside and then on to White Sands for Sunset...

I head on to the Boat Bar to meet up with my longtime local friend Jeff. We party there for a bit. One of the Norwegian guys I had gone on the Ya Mon cruise showed up. I felt bad for the guy. He went to go take a leak and must have mis-positioned. Apparently, his flow ricocheted off something else (perhaps the wall) and redirected right back at his shorts. Upon returning to the bar from the urinal, he had a distinct line of urine....almost formed perfectly with a 2 to 3 inch width....going from his belly to his thigh...The locals laughed at him but I was glad when I saw his friend pop up so I didn't have to escort the guy home....though I would have....

I meet my friend Amber at Bourbon and actually make it til midnight....Time for a sub and a little chillax time!

Tomorrow is Luddy Samms and the Drifters, after all!
