Day 3 started a new trend. Get up, sit on the porch and take in the sights and sounds, go eat breakfast, wake the wifey up, and hang out on the cliffs.
The first few days we had the typical afternoon tropics shower for an hour or so. After that, it wasn't much rain. We actually went a couple of days with no rain and abundant sunshine. I have to admit that as long as I was on property I loved the rain. It was a great brake from the action. Take a shower, alone time with the wifey, and than back at it. The weather the entire week was perfect. I actually hate to talk about it as I do not want to jinx myself for the next time.
The cove was a great daily hangout. Take a look at the pick and swim out. You can go either to the left or right and snorkel. You can also jump from the cliffs from either side. To the left of the pic are the higher spots. I believe it was this night that one of our fellow travelers challenged Kevin at the bar to jump from the highest spot a couple of hours into the night. He threw a little cash in and next thing you know a guy comes running from the kitchen and makes the dip. The man who put up the challenge paid up. Next thing you know numerous folks jumped in. The seas were mellow that night and all was good. Just a great example of how the staff gets involved in all the fun.
I swear that jump did not hurt. LOL! We had a jump off and several of our fellow guest decided that we would try to do one off jumps. It was a good hour of laughs and no one was hurt....... Just a typical day at Catcha.
Uh Oh! We had a Rob, Lisa, and Tawnee sighting at Ivan's. Rob was busy on Saturday night so I didn't get a chance to say hi. I bumped into him and the lovely Lisa at the bar at Ivan's and had a chance to ask a million questions all things Negril. They were both quite receptive to the Newb and were gracious with their time. They seem to enjoy their time at Ivan's and I completely understand why.
Say hi to Kevin! Kevin is a great bartender and a great singer. If you have some old reggae tunes on your Ipod or Laptop bring them. They'll hook you up to their system and soon enough all are singing along. More pics soon come.
