Enjoying your trip report! Your description of the smells is spot on. Negril Palms looks different than what I remember. Might have to check it out for my next trip.

We had decided to finally go on a catamaran cruise. Mr. Lunatic has never been on one, so sign us up I did! (Sorry, I had a Yoda moment) Love how we were just talking about it, and up comes a vendor..
He convinced us that Sunday would be better, since it would be a small group..Yay!
Since the excitement and hard work exhausted us, we decided to walk down to our favorite little bar and enjoy a
dirty banana. I love Yellow Bird!
Red Stripe Cat Cruise......Yah mon !!!!!
While stumbling ( I mean walking) back to our hotel, we decided to stop into Yard Beach for a few more Red Stripes. Okay,
they yelled at us to come in. I've always found that always leads to a good time and this wasn't any different. We had so much fun we decided to return for dinner.
The jerk chicken pasta was awesome! Wish I had food porn pictures to show you, but I was hungry!
Our waitress turned out to be Shadaire, who used to work at Travellers.
Sitting at the bar with Rudy(bartender) we all were singing and dancing, and then who did my wandering eye spy?
President Obama...okay not really. And no secret service in sight!
Damn. Just realized I didn't have one dirty banana this trip.Originally Posted by Maralunatic

MikeyNYC-Don't worry, I made up for you with all the dirty bananas
Sunday was the day of the Reggae Marathon. I got up early and hung out in front of the Palms and cheered people on. What a great mixture of people running...from serious contenders to 70+ runners to parents running with strollers. We laughed at the two kids across the street entertaining the runners going by with the dancing they were doing.
After most of the people passed by(and some coming back) we grabbed the bags of clothes and toys we brought down and walked to Mary Gate of Heaven church to drop them off...oops! forgot the hours changed because of the marathon. Church services weren't until noon. Love the sign that said afterwards they would have the "Blessing of the Blisters"
What to do with the clothes and toys?? Hmmm...Oh yeah, we were right by Treehouse so we walked over and introduced ourselves to Gail. By the way, did you know she rocks a mean hula hoop?
She promised to get them to the church for us. Thanks Gail!
I had an unfortunate accident......
I blew out my flip flop...stepped on a beer top....
Okay, enough Jimmy Buffett lyrics.
Having this happen means we went to Times Square to look for a cheap pair of sandals. Stopped to see Bob..
Holy cow!!! The cheapest flip flop I saw was $25 US...ummm, no,no,no. Good thing I brought another pair. They aren't comfortable, but I tend to kick off my shoes every chance I can.
The YaMon cat cruise was a blast! The guys had everyone rockin' with the tunes, and off course the booze. We met a woman who had run the marathon earlier in the day and thought she had booked a trip on the catamaran with her friends, only to find out they were on a different one. She talked the captain of both boats into letting her switch to her friends boat at Ricks. By the time we arrived at Ricks, the waves were bad enough the captain wouldn't let anyone snorkel. Luckily a glass bottom boat was there and pulled up to switch her over. The waves were nasty!
