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

[Lorax2]

Dave needs to escape, he needs to get out...go somewhere. He is stressed from work, from life, and has been fighting off a case of P.N.S. since his last trip to Negril...One year of surfing Negril.com, reading trip reports, planning a new trip. He's been annoying his wife with daily stories, pictures, plans within plans...all about Negril.
Now they are both at the airport...Dave is tired, he has been up since 2:30am and his mind is wandering...and wondering...

What happened to the plane that engine used to belong to?



Is this a portal to another world...another dimension?



Is this our plane?...I can't see if there is an engine missing...I'd rather use the portal

Cool...nice beginning!

The flight was uneventful, quicker than previous years..."much better than last year" says Cindy (Dave's wife), and she tells the tale...the tale of a fateful trip...the sad tale of a 3 hour trip sitting behind an extremely flatulent old man, trapped in an aluminum tube, miles high and island bound...Dave's mind was still wandering...thinking about the portal...a small tear in the fabric of space/time...a doorway to an alternate reality that let them (this time) sit next to a nice, pleasant smelling young man traveling home to visit his family...
Smooth landing...Short lines...our ride was there waiting...A little bit of sadness mixed in with the excitement, it was supposed to be Alfred....
Michael our driver, Dave would soon find out, is a great guy...working with Alfred for the last few years, a good driver, honest, and very talkative...
Cindy is hungry, Dave...not so much...he's kind of tired and thinking about tonight...Seastar...would he be able to stay awake? He asks Michael to stop at Bigga's..."Ya Mon" he says, and they are there in no time...
Conch soup...Red Stripe...Recharge, and on our way to Idle Awhile...Time passes quickly...Then...

They are home...







Our humble abode...

The room is great. Dave is feeling a little tired, his head is spinning and he can't find his wife..Dave gets changed and checks out the room hoping to find her...The room is not that big...They were supposed to unpack some of their things, and grab a drink at the bar...Relax before going to Seastar...

Bed...check



TV and 'Fridge...check



Ah Ha ! ...Wife...check :-)
