A trip reports of sorts

[irieworld]

Morning came upon my first full day in JA and I showered, dressed in shorts, tshirt and flipflops, and threw my computer bag over my shoulder and start the trek to Seastar with a couple hundred J for cabs in my pocket. i hadn't changed money yet but had some change from purchaces. I walked to Easy Rock Internet Cafe in hopes of finding a charger for a Mac there. Maybe someone left theirs from a trip before? The guy there was sweet and helpful, he was full of postivity about my getting a computer charge there, but turns out what he thought would work did not fit at all! He tried to hook my tired little mac to an LG charger and it just wasn't happening. I headed back out to the road again. As i get further west, less hassle from guys. But near town-- a few lines-- Baby I see you walk, you walk sweet like sugar-- or just the one thing that bugs me more than anything -- a loud "PSSSSTTT" .

I finally realize I gotta hop in the cab, it has taken me an hour to get to Easy Rock and beyond and I need to see the captain before 10am, running out of time. So quick quick I am in a route cab--100 JA out of my sweaty pocket and I am on my way walking down seastar lane. Sweet.

Coffee at Seastar, and meeting Capt D and Ginny(sp?) --priceless! Charging my tired laptop==priceless as well. Thank you captain and your beautiful wife, you made my day.



As my computer gets charged up I ask the beautiful Francine (not Chris's wife, but the waitress) if it is too early to order a blended rum and fruit drink. Apparently it is not too early! So I ordered the drink plus breakfast of scrambled eggs and that famed JA bacon. i had already had a couple cups of coffee while talking to the captain and his wife, so feeling good!
