This is a great report - makes me want to revisit Kingston and PA .. made about 4 trips to town during the late 1980s. I really liked your photo's of the Kingston - beautiful pic of the Ward Theatre (I went to Pantomine some 20 plus years ago and saw the late Miss Lou at her finest in the live production - hopefully the theatre can be restored to its former beauty in the years to come. When I was there is was like faded elegance, but several hurricanes have severely damaged her since - I know there is a foundation set up for donations for just that purchase). I never made it to Trench Town (in fact I recall several Kingstonians telling me that even if I wanted to go there I would not be able to find a taxi willing to take me to that area). I did spend quite a bit of time in downtown Kingston, including the National Art Gallery for a full afternoon.

Loved the idea of using priceline for hotel room in Kingston and will give that a try before my next trip to JA (I go for long stays now that I am retired and 3 nights in Kingston and 3 nights in Port Antonio would make a nice break from Negril). Great Huts has been on my wish list for a couple of years also.

Looking forward to hearing more of your trip and more pictures!
