Dave Escapes....P.N.S, Negril, and the Apparent Event Horizon (a trip report)

[Lorax2]

After some time at the bar it was time to grab a few more drinks and head cliffside to chill out and have a smoke...

A couple of STRONG rum and cokes...



They venture back over the bridge and down to the edge of the cliffs...Catcha has some great little nooks hidden down stairs, around corners...everywhere...very cool :-)

The moon was out...



Dave and his wife find a couple of lounge chairs tucked away above the ocean and settle in...
There is a whole lot of chillin' going on...some drinking, some smokin', and some talkin'...Dave's sense of time is once again distorted...his mind starts to wander... again.
He watches a whisp of smoke curl upward, and even though there is a breeze it seems to stop...just freeze there...The dark sea surging below him...he imagines being on the edge of a black hole...on the event horizon...the dark mass of the ocean below a point of no return...leading to a singularity,a point so dense as to tear a hole in space/time itself...above where he and his wife were sitting, the event horizon...the point where beyond no matter can escape the intense gravity...not even light...the closer an object gets to the edge, the slower time seems to pass to the observer, until the object seems to just fade away as it is pulled in.."Where does it go?" he thought...and started to smile...
"what are you thinking about?" asks Dave's wife...He tells her..."You're cut off" she says as she smiles back at him..."Time to call for a ride back home"



Killer sunset... :-)
