Mr. X Does Negril (2010) with No Reservations
Chapter 51 – Later 1st morning at the Castle
Sept 9th, 2010 - Thursday – (Day 6)
Queen still sick. I explained the Teddy meal plan and how good it is going to be. She is not hungry and does not want to come down. Please come down and eat and drink and if you don’t feel good then go back to bed. She mentions something about a ghost last night. I am kind of in a hurry to get back down the 4 flights of steps to the courtyard to order breakfast from Teddy and start the Royal food sampling. But no. can’t be that simple. I got to stop and ask about the “ghost”. I know I locked all the doors. And everything is still here and the ghost did not harm us in any way. Maybe it was a dream due to ur sick condition? I think I saw a ghost by the door. Well listen honey nowhere on the board did I read anything about the castle being haunted. Besides it’s only like 30 years old. Not like it is an old haunted castle. She seems better about it and decides to come get coffee and food.
I feel better about situation. Its upsetting wife not feeling well on vacation and the room could be haunted. On the other hand I have prepaid for the Penthouse of a Castle and Now I have a prepaid personal chef lined up. Well not that hard of decision. I am feeling pretty good.
Come outside and look at the little houses and little people from the top of ur castle. Have wife do the beauty queen/movie star slow open hand wave to the boats going by. Boats always stare and wave at the castle. Even she admits this makes her feel better. We go down to coffee bar. Spot I forgot to clean up because I was so excited about my deal with Teddy now has 1000 ants that came from nowhere to suck up the crème I spilled. Now I get it those are not melted ice around the sugar and creamer on small plates (saucers?) those are water barriers. Moats to keep the ants at bay.
Beautiful but you are not in a plastic bubble with a sterile environment. Nature. Teddy comes out. Make introductions with wife and Teddy. Order. Just could not do the Jamaican special of Ackee and Salt fish. 4 days in a row I ordered the special breakfast wherever I was. I greatly enjoyed all 4 times.
Apparently 4 days is my limit of days in a row with the Jamaican National dish of ackee and salt fish, Johnny cakes etc. Calaloo. I ate it first breakfast and craved it next 3 breakfasts and greatly enjoyed but I can’t do it no more. Some kind of non-pancake dishes. Some kind of shrimp scramble.
Wife was looking at blackberry or something (before IPhone)
Took 1 bite of her food.
Looked up from phone
Said best food of whole trip
Back to Facebook.
Ate couple more bites and went back to bed
I was forced to eat both breakfasts in the name of research and of course munchies.
Going to be only full day at the castle. Nothing planned at all except having fun at the castle until our sunset late afternoon at castle complete with a Royal Cruise aboard the King’s Yacht.
Played in water. Saw 2 locals divers get out of water at the unfinished castle. They did not catch but 2 fish. Both were about 2 &1/2 feet long. Nice fish. We yelled from float and they smiled and held them up and said Barracuda. Rest of day everywhere I went I told people about the fish. (That’s the kind of thing people like to hear about) by next day everybody in the area knew about the 2 big fish and who caught them. News travels fast in small town.
Made another trip to the L & M store. 4th time leaving the castle on foot. 3rd solo.
It sad the strong always prey on the weak.
I wish it were not that way.
Just the way it is.
Always has been.
Always will be.
The hustlers don’t even bother with me anymore.
They look up and see me. “Shake their heads and say crazy white man” and just turn their eyes.
Not going to let them off the hook that easy. When I get back from store and before entering my castle.
“I thought u guys were some kind of “hustlers” looks to me u are just sitting around in the shade all day”
“Some white guy was down there giving out money. It was crazy. Guy was drunk or something just starts handing out money. Everybody starts leaning forward and looking at me. Down there. (I point from the direction I came). Even gave me a $10 bill I say and hold it up. Yeah he left I say as I pop back in the castle. Suckers!
