    Great report, so far! We love that area of the West End and have even stayed at Sea Grape once. Value-Mac is our go-to grocery store, but I didn't realize they had rooms for rent upstairs.

    I assume you also met Doctor Feelgood, who has the vendor stand next to Jimmy's place?

    I had never stayed on the West End and in the past few days I am having severe withdrawal symptoms. Sorry to say but it had a better vibe than my neighborhood at home. I used /www.airbnb.com to find many more good value places. I had an incident which I will explain later and airbnb good to work with so far. I meet sooo many people, me had new nickname of "forget me". As in forget me name mon. I have issues with names. lol

    Lime, I presume you are home now....

    Hopefully the scraps and cuts were treated in Ja before they became infected! I let a small sore on my foot go too long without treatment once in Jamaica and paid dearly for the neglect!

    Enjoying the report!

    Day 3 Awake to sound of nothing but the chorus of a few dogs, clouds, peace and quite and quite a head ache...Ok, that's enough party favors for awhile, got that part out of my system. Grabbed a snack and fruits at the Value Mac and plan my day. I had made a to do list made up from suggestions from boardies that might as well have been thrown out the plane window. All good plans seem to go to hell when there are so many distractions. While I am killing a little time, I hear slight voice. Junnie.( my real name is Jon) Junnie,yu home? Its Marie. She's brought a big piece of aloe for my arm and knee's. She plays doctor and teases me about our meeting last night. She is on her way to work so we hug and say our good byes. I am getting a late start, which is fine as I wait for Jimmie and my new ride. I had a deal but my patience is running out. I'm putting on some mileage today one way or another. I gather my goods with the intention of walking down to White Sands to see some friends from my last trip and check things out at a walking pace. I walk past many vendors. There are some extremely nice wood carvings along my way as I find my way to Sip-N-Bite. I slip on the Ipod, and get into good walking groove. The warm weather and sea breeze make aching knees feel good. Coming into town I turn off the Ipod but leave the ear buds in as I have found the hagglers seem to leave me alone.
    I stay off the new sidewalk and take the beach side and find a nice little bar as my Ipod runs out of battery. Stopping to get some wadda, asking the bartender, Dana for a recharge. I get another wadda and we chat about nothing for almost an hour. Since my break-up its nice to just be able to talk to total strangers about anything that comes to your mind knowing that if they choose to gossip about me, not a soul knows me or for that matter cares. With my emotional battery and the Ipod charged back up, I meander forward, its a cloudy, windy day, Ive been to the beach many times and the vibe on the road keeps me there, checking out a familiar but drastically changed beach road.
    I get to White Sands and cant seem to walk in. Its starting to get late, I'm hungry and feel like being at home. Just not in the mood, so I walk the side walk back to the round about, grab a taxi and head back to Sip-n-Bite for a great supper. I walk back to my place, with plenty of mileage put on, tired and ready for bed.
