I don"t understand the spam reference. Could you explain for those of us not so enlightened?

[justchuck]

The spam reference is the Spam in a can as in luncheon meat.

[Coco]

I was just wondering when you would pop up Mr. Smith. Looking forward to the videos!

[Babalew]

I know what spam is....don't know how Mr Smith is referring to it. Any hidden meaning other than the obvious Mr Smith? Looking forward to your report Mr Smith!

1...taxi fare in Negril ... Ja $100 per route per person (in day time) and at night too if you know what you need to know...

Smith...so you are not surprised if the route cab drivers ask you for more money...the route taxi fare per leg in Negril since late 2013 is 130j per person...below is a link to Westmorelands set route fares...

me understand, Lisa
:-)

stay tuned
...i'll have a *clearer picture* on this Negril route taxi thing in a couple days

gonna chat up a few of my Lucea-country & Lucea-town neighbors, who are Negril route taxi drivers, and see what they tell me.

so far,
several Ja-folks --- i.e., drivers & riders --- have told me it's Ja$100

but my gut tells me *why* the difference,
but i'm gonna hold what me-gut is saying until later

ummmmmmmmmmmmm
wasn't it former Ja-PrimeMinister PJ Patterson who said::::>>> ""... the law is NOT a shackle ..."" ...????...

Haha Smith...no problem, do some checking ...but it pretty much comes down to when and whom you may ask...our Lucea driver on Friday said it was 100j the other day also...he then thought about it for awhile and said "oh yeah, it's 130j now...sometimes it's just simply a change/coin issue...continue to enjoy your visit and stay dry

lawd help us when price raise to $150 ... no coin issue then

[Babalew]

i often paid 100j with no problem after noticing the locals paying that, but usually paid 150 to avoid the coin issue!
