West End Tales: Return to the beach

[Vince]

Ahhhh, Canoe!!!!- Awesome sea glass looking area! Great vibes there along, with music and food and cold drinks!

Vince, good to know about sea glass, thanks.

I come to Jamaica for the people, culture and food.

Diane comes to Jamaica to feed the cats!!��

Needless to say, the cats at CLP will be well fed this week!!!

Diane wants to know if we can hit HiLo for another bag of Friskies cat food!!!

Every morning when we rise, there is a cat a the door waiting for a handout! Every evening when we return cats come running for Diane's free meals!

Time for a beach walk, Diane asks which way, I say ladies choice, we r going left (South).

Instead of going left, we go right, down to Couples Swept Away, stopped in at Tree House.

Captain Kirk stopped us on the walk, says hi to all his friends on Negril.com

Breakfast at CLP, National breakfast for me with Akee and salt fish etc.. Di and Carly had continental, Keith had the Coco breakfast sandwich. All good!

Girls headed to the beach, boys downtown. Hit Scotia, walked to Police Station for quick tour, then to St Anthony's for a donation. Walk back to round a bout and over the bridge, decide not to hit craft market. Quick route taxi to Travellers. Keith worksout, I walk the beach. First time this trip I encounter serious harassment. About 100 yards north of Travellers, three young guys start giving me the "no respect" routine! No problem for me, but might be unnerving for a new comer!

When I returned back that way on my return, the youths were gone. Picked up Keith at Travellers, back to Coco. Lunch from Best in the West, good jerk chicken! Girls want to go Para Sailing, no problem. They had a blast!

Chill on the beach, chill into the pool. Shower up.

Headed to Canoe!

More soon come.

VVHT, Di, Carly & Keith

Correction: Monday was shopping at Value Master, not Hi Lo. Getting old!��

tfw73 - regarding the new building at Coco, when I was there the end of May, it wasn't too crowded overall so I don't know how many people were in the new building to make a difference. Our room (521) was right near the entrance/steps to the new building and I didn't see a whole lot of activity in or out. The sundeck upstairs is really nice and there are loungers, tables, and a nice bathroom, but no umbrellas which makes it not too appealing in the middle of the day to be up there. I'd rather be on the beach! We did sit up there a couple nights with take out from Best in the West and it was nice.

Rooms in the new building are nice, but I hear they are very loud due to the acoustics of the hallway. There are no patios or balconies unless you are on the 3rd floor, so it's kind of "motel" like.

Thanks! We've got a third floor suite booked, but may upgrade when we arrive if there are any openings!

Value Master just as good as Hi Lo.
