    Very nice candid trip report. We're coming up on trip 15 and still haven't done the Pelican Bar and you report mentions our biggest problem about that trip: 45 minute to maybe 1.5 hours sounds like the longest it would be cool but that's a long/expensive ride there and back and we've done all the other things like Black River, Appleton Estates and YS Falls

    Homebrewer- I agree a long ride. There are many things I would maybe want to see but the drive is always so long and takes the whole day away. I wish there were more things closer.

    I am so enjoying your report - oh the wonders and pitfalls of Jamaica... but it sure gets under your skin.

    Yes it does. And it will remain there. It very well may be incurable...

    good to see a honest review of the driver . . .
    i would definitely have told him to stop and drive appropriately . . .
    after all, you are the customer . . .
    that's exactly what happened to me about 15 years ago, was so disappointed, that's what pushed me to drive myself . . .
    it's just the last trip that i reluctantly went with linston and was pleasantly surprised! he was a great driver and would definitely use him again.

    Living in the county and not driving in a big city much I don't think I could handle driving in Jamaica. I would be a nervous wreck. Don't get me wrong all the drivers we had did drive wonderful this one was terrible though.

    You do NOT have to take your clothes off at Hedonism. As you entered on the Sandals side you would be on the clothing optional beach side.

    Greg- can you walk thru to get to the other side or will they stop you?

    I also want to report that Ashton must read reviews here or on TA but either way I received an email with his apologies. It doesn't change the experience but it does change my respect level for him. Very important in my book to acknowledged and apologize and not get defensive. Means a lot.
