    Re: Just wondering? How many times have you gone?

    Mi Lady and I have been reaching for the island since 1991. We used to take other vacations, until Jamaica became an obsession. We have been going since before the Holiday Inn - Montego Bay was the Sunspree and the T-Water was still a hotel.

    This December's trip will be the fourth this year and our 18th overall. The first was to the Holiday Inn in Montego Bay for our honeymoon. We didn't know any better. We took a day trip to Negril that reach and haven't looked back since. That was before Margaritaville and we were dropped off at the Negril Treehouse. The next two were at the T-Water. I'm already planning next years trips and we have 2 more to go this year! People ask us why we don't go somewhere else. Once you go, you know....

    Not near enough! First trip was in 1986 and then I didn't get back for a long time. This trip will be my 6th I think, but only my 2nd to Negril. Can't wait!

    Weathermon, I think most of us regulars have to field that "why don't you go somewhere else" question. My response is always the same. "You don't understand, I'm not going on vacation. I'm going home." On my very first trip I felt it keenly but didn't understand what it was, but it drew me back time and again until it became clear. Then when I met Donna here in Mpls., she's originally from St. Mary, it became all the more real. When we go to Jamaica, we are going home.

    38 for me, and never stayed in Negril. Only ever passed through taking friends to Ricks. I always found it to be stressful, busy busy on the beach with people hustling every few steps.I suppose because I often travel solo its out of my comfort zone Lurking here reading trip reports and seeing so many solo travelers I'm thinking I've been a little judgemental or perhaps scared of the unknown and need to spend a little time checking this area out.
    Trelawny is my favourite parish its like a comfy old sweatshirt.
