Mr. X Does Negril (2010) with No Reservations
Chapter 45 – afternoon at BCC
September 8th, 2010 – Wednesday – (Day 5)
Back to Blue Cave Castle about 5pm for sunset. Hottest part of day has passed and a few clouds and breezy.
Feels so good. Play in water. Jump off lower edges.
Easy access to water. Fewer places to jump in but easier to get in and out of water than Catcha. 2 access points plus u can actually swim out from underground cave into ocean so I guess 3.
So I am on my float and I go all directions. Out into the ocean. I know I keep saying this but the water is crystal clear and I am floating in the middle of ocean (my story). I swear it is deep but I can see clearly. Still cannot believe I am floating and the water is deep like 100 feet!!!
Towards the beach and then towards the Samsara.
As I am near the unfinished castle I see a local has made his way out to the edge and is fishing with just a line of string no pole. As I get closer I can tell this person is kind of trying to stay below the radar. As I kick along on my float I say hello.
He kind of gives me that slightly nervous look.
Then I say “Am I almost to the lighthouse?”
Finally his silence is broken and he gets this shocked look on his face and says “it’s a long way from here to the lighthouse”.
I say “really damn I thought I would be there by now”.
“I put in at Green Island this morning I thought I would have reached the lighthouse earlier; do you think I will make Kingston by Dark??”
His eyes get really really big and he does not say a word just stares at me like he is looking at a ghost. I keep kicking and round the corner at Samsara and disappear from his sight. I was going to say something like “What you never seen a crazy white person before?” Damn did not want the guy to have a heart attack on my account.
