negrilmon,
Nice memories!!! I first visited Negril in April 75. Was in Ft Lauderdale during Spring Break and the crowd was too much, walked by a travel agency and saw that Jamaica poster with the beautiful girl and bought a R-Trip Miami - MoBay on the spot. Stayed in Red Ground not far up the hill on the left side across from a church.
I jumped from the same spot as your dad at Ricks, my first but not last, I remember well that upon impact with the water how the soles of my feet stung like heck. I wonder how many people have been injured or died there as a result of jumping? Back then Rick's was much smaller but still very popular place at sunset.
