West end Tales: December 2022

[VVHT]

Flight was delayed, Immigration hall was packed, Oz waited patiently for me outside. Sangster didn’t update the flight board for the drivers waiting outside!

Oz grabbed my luggage and we were off to Negril. Stopped at Valerie’s on the way for a few cold ones.
Great catching up with Oz and he is doing well.

It was dark when we got to Negril and I was tired from a long travel day, so skipped my usual stop at Mi Yard and headed straight for Seastar. Chris greeted me as we pulled in.

Dropped everything in my room and headed to the bar. Osheen and Kim were very entertaining at the Seastar bar last night.

It was an early night and I slept well.

Got up this morning and unpacked, then a quick jump in the pool. My goal was ten laps, but it was more like 2.5!

Showered, changed and headed down for breakfast and coffee!

Keena is doing a great job serving breakfast and Santana made me an amazing omelette!

Chilling here at Seastar for a few hours, then probably head to the beach.

Enjoy,
Happy aka VVHT

After breakfast I felt guilty about the 2.5 laps, so back in the pool to complete the laps.
Laid by the pool for a bit, try not to burn too early in the trip.

Note to future self, don’t be a cheap ******* and definitely book Club Mo Bay on arrivals in the future!
Immigration hall was PACKED yesterday. The lines were backed up the ramp past the 1st line of kiosks!

Chilling on my balcony, nice breeze blowing. Grooving to the tunes coming from across the lane.

Enjoy,
Happy

Errol arrived around 1pm, picked up Rob, stopped at Mi Yard to give Delroy a Ukrainian flag, hit the Scotia Bank ATM and then he dropped us off at Fire Fly to begin our beach crawl.
Firefly for a couple
CLP for one - good to see Romeo
White Sands - no Ukrans so we moved on
Tony’s Hut - Tony was tending bar and the place was jamming!
Sea Grape - wonderful young woman and her Mother were tending the bar
Flag City to see Nash and his Crew. Gave Nash a Ukrainian flag.
Skip and Ernie stopped by to say hi

Alfred’s for a few more and a couple of burgers, then off to LTU for a few more. Had the pumpkin soup and pizza. Pumpkin soup was excellent

Headed back to Seastar and Baker showed up, so the party continued for a few more hours.

It was an excellent beach crawl day and cliff crawl night!

Chilling on my balcony
