I agree with Miss Blue and some of the other posters. Just give a hotel name. If you are not comfortable with that, then sure, give Andre's address and say you are staying at a friends. But really, less said the better. they don't need a ton of info, just a contact address--and they don't even need specific address, just name of hotel and Negril. Sometimes I stay multiple hotels in Mobay and Negril and at friends but just give the hotel name of the first place I am staying.

As far as giving names to customs officers--I would not do it, ever. I don't smoke or partake in other drugs so if they did find something on my luggage or person--I know it ain't me so even though it would be a hassle to deal with--nothing serious would come of it. But I wouldn't want it down for the record that a friend or boyfriend smokes. So many people do in JA--including taxi drivers, people at the resorts, etc that it would be all to easy I guess to have the smell on your stuff. But even after a dozen trips, I never got "pulled over" by customs--and most of my JA friends are heavy smokers.

All that aside, I have to once again give you thanks for the awesome report and can't wait till you can go again! It is always such a joy to read a report that resonates and takes you right there to relive past trips. Jah Bless!
