Mi Lady, Helen, and I strolled north from the Co Co in mid morning to shoot these pics. The beach was deserted. All the properties had everything stowed in anticipation of the event. No beach chairs, no signs, no bars open, restaurants boarded, no people, no dogs, no birds, no nothing.
Most of the morning and afternoon, we did our part by securing bar stools at the Co Co LaPalm beach bar and Sun Beach - the only other one we saw open near us. There was no electricity. The Co Co has a generator, but the smaller resorts were without.
Negril was on lock down - curfew enforced. Stores closed. The staff at the Co Co had to spend the night at the resort because nothing was moving to take them home.
Negril was so fortunate that this storm stayed east of us.
