Still working on the vids, but here's a Bentley pictorial special:

Thanks Gerry for getting me in touch with Bentley. We took a couple from Catcha and everybody loved their food as well as Bentley himself. Once I get my pics up I'll post some pics.

What is the food in the eighth picture? Looks like it has some kind of peppers in it...looks delicious!

Here's a little video on the west end:

GerryG123, your video featuring the west end donkey reminded me of something!
A long while ago, as I watched a man riding a donkey pass by, a Jamaican friend told me, "Patient men ride donkeys".
To this day, I don't know if that was in praise of patient men, or a cautionary tale against being too patient. Jamaican people have a way with words. Ya Mon!

thats a real nice pony

LOL Gerry!!!

[sunray]

Yup, that's a nice example of the rare Jamaican donkey-pony only found on the west end (on Sunday mornings). Most people don't even get to see one out in the open like that!

On the way back from Xtabi, it rained hard -- enough so that I was hoping the downpour would not affect the Saturday night show at Seastar Inn scheduled to begin a short time later. I ducked into DeBars, and there was Pam, the beautiful Expat wife of Eddie, widely regarded as among the top Jerk chicken purveyors on the island -- no small honor.

I got to know Pam pretty well the past couple of reaches, particularly when I stayed for a nearly a week in January at Sunset on the Cliffs hotel, right across from Debars. Plus, Pam tends to hang at Seastar Inn sometimes, too, so by the time I saw her again this reach, it was like we were old friends.
