The rest of our Trip Report - Catcha Falling Star & Blue Cave Castle

[tfw73]

Does it make me lame if I said I wished I had a REAL sub sandwich right about now?!?!?!

I won't ever forget reading that TR...I kept wondering how in the world did he get sub sandwiches way out in the middle of nowhere!

How do I sign up to instruct in the immersion therapy? My qualifications are uhhhhh rather extensive. We have a flop contest, road trip, boardie bash, Luciano, Booger's bash. Looks like we are overdoing it, so let's combine 2 into 1.

Alright, Booger's bash will involve immersion therapy. That's right kids, great eats, bonfire, and immersion therapy. All who are interested just need to apply. Please RSVP to Marley the event planner.

Hey all! I'm back! Okay, Here goes...

DAY 5

So I checked out of the Seastar the next day and moved over to Blue Cave Castle which was really beautiful!






My room overlooked the sea which was awesome.





I most certainly would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay.

I must say that the cliff area of Negril is definitely very quiet and hassle free... compared to the rest of Negril. I feel like the cliffs are more ideal for couples though.

Anyway, that first night we decided to go to a beach park party where all the locals hang at. It wasn’t as crazy as what I thought it was going to be considering my adventures at “THE JUNGLE”.


I want to use this opportunity right now to thank Daisy a.k.a. “Clarity” for the fun night…


Okay, long story short I didn’t really see anyone my type at the beach party but Daisy was SO determined to find me a girl.....


So she talked to this local guy who in turn whistled at one of his lady friends. She in turn called me over…

I didn’t really get a good look until I got up close. Then I thought: “Oh Hell!” “What the _____ did I just get myself into!?!” She simply was just not my type and she was old enough to be my mother! You do the math!

One thing I learned about myself on this trip and this goes all the way back to the beginning is? You guessed it…. I have a hard time just “SAYING NO”

I’m just too damn nice and really hate hurting people’s feelings, so needless to say I spent all night with her keeping Markus and Daisy closeby

The whole time I was giving Daisy the evil eye like: “I’m going to get you back for this!” LOL!

Anyway, it was funny… I asked the lady (Again bad at remembering names) to show Daisy how to dance and it was hilarious watching her attempt to get into that “Daggering” position!

But the most awkward part came when I found out her SON was at the party and he comes over to talk to his mom.

She doesn't stop dancing with me while they are talking! I’m behind her and she dancing all provocative on me in front of him! Not to mention the fact that at that moment she grabs my hand and puts it on her chest. So now it's holding her Chest! (Not going to get too graphic but you get the point ) All this in front of her son! Her son was my age. Can you guys say awkward? Lol Thanks Daisy!


Anyway, yet another eventful night in Negril!


I'll let Daisy say something in her defense. Haha ! Here's the keyboard !

[booger]

Funny how we get all caught up making sure our friends hook up........

Seriously though, I hope you did, because how could you not in Negril?

[Clarity]

LOL! I'm so sorry Jamar!

Okay, In my defense, I did not anticipate that happening.

You see, I had just been chatting with a guy at the Beach Park Party and I asked INNOCENTLY, If he had any nice female friends that would want to meet my friend Jamar. A cool and pretty chica, not a “lady of the night” or anything...

He said “Yeah man, I have a real good friend that's single and she would get along great with your friend. Let me introduce them”

I was so happy to have made a connection. I gave Jamar a thumbs up sign.

That's when the man whistled! Suddenly a big boned woman with a lot of make up on was pulling Jamar onto her lap, running her hands all over him. It all happened so fast!

I tried to intercept but she waved me away. “Go on now, Can't you see that we're having a good time?” she said “Let your friend have some fun now!!”

I backed away while Jamar mouthed the words “HELP. ME.”

What was I supposed to do?!

I tried to employ Markus in the task of separating Jamar from her grip. She just wouldn't have it. It was like Jamar now belonged to her and she was not letting him go.

And he was hardly putting up a fight.

Jamar did get his revenge though.

I was dancing on the beach with Markus, when suddenly Jamar's new lady friend appeared and pushed my upper body down towards the sand.

At first I thought she was attacking me!

Then I realized she just trying to teach me Jamaican dance moves. She figured the best way to do this was to first physically put me into the correct position.

“Jamar told me you wanted to learn how to dance like a Jamaican”, she said “I can teach you the ways, but first you have to put your hands down on the sand and your butt up high like this – Your man has to take you from behind like this”

She grabbed Markus and positioned him.

Jamar was laughing so hard, he had tears in his eyes. I can only imagine what my face looked when this was all happening.

So many people were all around us watching her give me these dance lessons. There were no other tourists at this party on the beach. There was a huge wall of speakers to the left of us blasting dance hall music. The beach was PACKED.

Apparently this beach park party happens every Sunday night on the beach. I didn't know about this and I haven't read many Boardie reports about this weekly event. Who else been to this wild party???

This woman was kinda crazy and more than a little intoxicated. She had a great playful sense of humor though and She had me cracking up. She definitely made that whole night an experience I wont soon forget. She also had some amazing dance moves. Thanks to her, I can now shock all my friends next time I hit the dance floor here in San Francisco...

After the beach party ended, she invited Jamar to XXX for the after party. Jamar has a hard time saying “no” and was fumbling with an excuse. So we helped him out and told her that we all needed to get home. She gave Jamar a hug, and we all left in good spirits.

However, on the ride home, Jamar kept saying how he was going to kill me, But thankfully... he has not....
Yet...

We took a lot of pictures that night. The three of us just went through them now and unfortunately there are none that are appropriate to post here, I'm sorry. I just don't want my poor mother to have a heart attack if she ever finds this trip report. You'll have to create your own visuals...

We dropped off Jamar at the Blue Cave Castle. He arranged a ride with the taxi driver for a trip to Little Bay for the following day. He was excited about exploring more of the Jamaican country side.

Markus and I decided we wanted to stay at Catcha Falling Star instead of another excursion. As I mentioned earlier, we wanted to just chill at the resort.

So we hugged goodbye and arranged to meet up at Blue Cave Castle for breakfast the morning of our departure flight.

Okay, back to Jamar..

[jamariquoi]

Haha, It's all good Daisy! I'll let you live this time!

So the next day, I took another day excursion…

This time to LITTLE BAY….

I heard about this from a bar owner near Blue Cave Castle.. His name is Myrin… not sure if I’m spelling that right but some of you may know him..

Anyway, the drive is not too far from Negril and it’s an awesome little spot to get some peace and tranquility. It’s not quite developed but it’s getting there and I think a lot more people will start checking this place out.

Met some really cool local people and also had the chance to go and see what was left of Bob Marley’s tree house or getaway spot which was also cool and in very spiritual in a way **hint hint**

I concluded the rest of my day by hanging out in town, having a nice dinner and talking with locals and shooting some pool…

Here are some pictures from Little Bay:

I know there are many parts of the trip that I skipped over such as the webcast hangouts. I'm not as descriptive as Daisy & Markus but you guys get the hint of my trip…

All in all, I would say that Jamaica was an experience that I’ll never forget.

There’s still so much that I want to do and see and would welcome the opportunity to come back and get that chance.

I learned that I can’t help everyone but respect is key..that’s the one thing ingrained in my head is that in spite of all they lack, they have something that us Americans could learn to have which is “Respect” or “Irie” and that’s something I’ll cherish and hold dearly to the rest of my life…


Thanks for reading!

ONE LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daisy and Markus are going to update later this weekend about our last morning together in jamaica
