I also usually just sit back and read, while Kevin (Kevin, PA) does most of the talking...but have to tell you...

Island mode...you described that PERFECTLY! I read this while at work and it just made me smile. Now I'm really counting down the days until we get back to Negril. And I must try the lobster thermidor next time too...something I kept talking about but didn't get around to trying...

Looking forward to the rest of this report, and reading about Jamar's experience at BCC!
