Another New Years Trip Report, cripple style

[justchuck]

This year we once again went for New Years. I have noticed every trip that as we approach Jamaica we are just east of Lucea. I have wanted a pic of our approach but I always take an isle seat which makes that kinda difficult. This year I had an isle seat, Cathy had the window seat and the middles seat was empty. One of my pleasures of visiting Jamaica is to capture lots of pictures which become memories. This year was to be different. I am suffering severe back problems and mobility is a real issue therefore I had to use a cane much of the time and rely on taxis to get around. We still had a great time, met some great people, ate some great food and enjoyed the Jamaican people.

That sounds about right Captain!

We have been using Rocky's Tours & Taxi for many years always with exceptional service. Our driver this trip was Clinton who happened to know of a great place to stop for refreshments. We enjoyed a brief stop at Cousins Cove Restaurant & Bar. We also made a stop at Shamrock for supplies. They usually have everything we need and I'm trying to conserve steps so no big Megamart for me.

We stayed at Pure Garden this trip with a kitchenette. All the plumbing worked, ac worked, sheets were clean and we were in Negril. What more could you need? Yeah chicken and we had Tek Chicken Barrel right outside the gate. It was pretty good and he is very hospitable and grateful for the business.



Or for more selection in dining you could venture across the street.



And it seemed that there was much more availabilty of herb since the relaxed laws.

Great shot of Lucea from the air. It really puts things in perspective. Where is Cousins Cove Restaurant located?
