DAY 5
Woke up this morning to the sound of rough water on the cliffs. Took my thoughts back to the night before. WOW. As I laid still, taking in the sounds and relishing the breezes coming in off the water, I thought about the violent seaspray splashing us the night before as we made up on the cliff’s edge. It was as intense as the pain I had felt when I heard him say….
Nevermind that. I’m not going to think about that now.
There he was right next to me on the porch bed. Phew. He pulled me close and put an arm around my neck so that I was in a headlock (of which I had no intentions of trying to escape lol). I could’ve stayed there forever. Not breathing. Who needs air anyways?
Then, I remember very vividly, the moment when reality hit me like a ton of bricks. This would be our last day together. F that.
I prod him to wake up. I tell him it’s my last day…that there got his attention. He said NO. I said YES. He said stay.
Jon got up to get us some Coffee from Ivan’s. I took the opportunity to start making phone calls. G’ma say’s go ahead. The airlines say they can book me on a flight leaving the 28th. Perfect. Jon walks back up the steps to the porch and overhears me confirming my new flight. There’s that smile <SIGH> Three more days of that smile…
#%!$&!!! I forgot to run that by work. Call the office and she says “I didn’t figure you would be coming home tomorrow. Don’t worry about it, just have fun. we’ll see you next week” That’s good cause I already changed my flight…
<AIRHORN>
WOOOOHOOO We bought ourselves some time, but Jon did have to check out of Catcha today (one day before me), and move down to the beach along with Booger and Sandie. I opted to chill out around Catcha for awhile…..in need of some recoop time. Had a nice lunch at Ivans. Love those Jerk skewers.

Ty is dearly missed at Catcha (but a big congrats on his marriage and move to WI)...
and of course the lovely Karen and Vevi
At some point, Shauny and Raul tried to talk me into hopping on the Pub Crawl. I just wasn’t quite ready for that. I told them I would catch up with them a little later. I knew Sweetness would be around, and I was totally up for some alone time as well. It was quiet around the property and the water was still rough so I don’t think I did any diving. Still…a very nice relaxing afternoon.
While I was in dire need of some calm, chill, "me time"....I had my fill of relaxing, and now I'm back on my A-game. Time to move around. I get on the phone and try to call Shauny. Gonna see if maybe I can find the One Love Bus. No answer. No surprise there, she is on a pub crawl afterall. So I call Garth and ask if he would mind running me around for a little bit.
NO PROBLEM.
Well there is a slight problem. I have no idea where we're going. LOL I tell him that we're looking for the Big colorful One Love Pub Crawl bus. He looks confused like he has no idea what I'm saying to him. I said no worries lets just drive and keep an eye out for a big bus painted rasta colors. Cn't be missed. Well it can if it's at Westender and you're going towards the beach road
Gave up. Stopped by a barrel for some jerk. Grabbed 2 box's and asked him to drop me off at Country Country. No problem.

Hey Tizz, two things: 1) love the new avi! You're so cute. 2) You do have a great perspective we've not had yet, your view of the April '12 trip! Thanks for brining us up to date (so to speak). Didn't see any photos of what the Pelican Bar looked like from underneath?
Tizzy, Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us. It is a beautiful story and I am so glad you stayed the extra days and we get to read more of your adventure.
