Really enjoyed the Manda in the Land of Wood & Water mini series. Good for you getting off the beaten track and away from the Beaches & The AI resorts to see the real Jamaican People. People like Jacko & Barber are the true spirit of the island as you found out. If I can ever find the time (and people to help corroborate the details), I will send the tale of my very 1st trip to Negril in 1978. I have also been subjected to strip search at Pearson 'cause they found some papers in my luggage. Hands down the # 1 worst airport to go thru on your way home from Jamaica.!!
