It's Tuesday morning, another beautiful day in Negril, but the ocean again is a bit choppy.

Suzie Q jumped on the scooter with me, and we headed down the hill. It's so nice early in the morning before most of the shops and restaurants have opened, and One Love Drive is nice n quiet. We took it slow, leaning into the turns, and made our way to Scotia Bank. Suzie Q needed some cash, and just by chance we ran into Clarity and bunch of other boardies who were headed on a bus to YS Falls for the day.

As I made my hellos to Clarity and Hubby Man, a hustler approached us: "Wow, what a surprise, someone is trying to sell us something!" I said, and we all had a chuckle.

Since it was windy on the beach with little waves, I figured it might be nicer and more calm up past the beaches, past the RIUs, all the way to Rhodes Resort. We made it there in about 15 minutes, and we brought along our rafts to float around. Everywhere we go, SuzieQ gets lots of attention from the Rastas, and at Rhodes the security guards were very attentive -- so much so, that SuzieQ even bought a little piece of jewelry from one of them (she is too nice to say NO!).

The beach was nice nice nice. I floated around a bit, ordered a few fruity drinks, got into Bob Marley mode .... It was still early but the sun was shining bright. Combined with the nice wind, it was a perfect Caribbean day. We had more plans, but it was hard to pull ourselves away from Rhodes. There were peacocks roaming about, and there was just one other couple enjoying the property at the time.
