Sam...I'm really enjoying your trip report!! Your version of "boring" sounds like my version of "perfect"! I have been to Negril 5 times and all 5 times have stayed at White Sands. We have the villa booked for Feb. 2012 and CAN HARDLY WAIT!!!! It's fun to read about another boardie who enjoys WS as much as we do :-) The last time we were there (Feb 2010) Frances was constructing a new Macaw cage - I'm excited to see the new cage :-) I forget what happened to all of the Love Birds he had -- they got out during the last hurricane maybe?? Anyway, great trip report!
