Well, 1972 was my first visit, but haven't been back nearly as many times....too many other places to go.

Lots of Socialists and Lada's.
Negril since 1978, Rick's was the party spot til 6AM.
Not every year but a long list like Marco.
Lots of trips like Manda81
Wow did Mandi get it on the first try.
Here now, with family 27 in all.
Mostly next generation in their twenties and thirties.
I have provide some leadership but am mostly interested in them exploring for themselves.
....dang i'm a newbie ..first touch in 89 ..with ex wife ..then never missed a year till 2008 ..some with my daughter ..most with ex girlfriends/lovers ..some with Ja ladies in waiting ..some solo .. all in toll nearly two years spent pon the rock ..
This touch with my new fiancee ...she is a bit troubled with my negril "past" and interested in seeing what all the fuss is about..
I trust that my age and experience will lead this adventure to a non trip report sort of touch..whilest still "seeing" everything that
has twitched my Negril itch so many moons ago ..
Good for you!!!! Its so nice to spend extended time here. Warning: One month quickly turns into 6 weeks the following year - 8 weeks the next couple, 3 months which is where I'm "stalled" at....it gets harder and harder to leave...
First trip in '83 MoBay/Negril. I'd say I'm getting old but I'll just say I was pretty young for my first trip and all trips after have only made me younger![]()

Lance's first trip was in 1974. He wanted to return so much he took me in 1987. After many beautiful trips,
we didn't discover Negril until 2000 and never looked back. Do we want to go anywhere else? NO!
Cheers
