It was New Years Eve. For this first night, I was scheduled to stay at Pure Garden, then switch to Seastar Inn. For an extra ten dollars, I made a deal with the Clives driver to let me check in real fast to Pure Negril, then tote me up to Seastar Inn, where my scooter was waiting.

It was nice to see everyone. I love coming back after I've been gone a bit and seeing all the smiling faces. The Seastar Inn employess are a really nice group, and you tell that they all love their job.

Chris said he had a room for me, but it was too late. I was going to take it anyway and just stay in two places, but since Luciano canceled, it was a good idea to take it easy despite it being the biggest party day of year.
