2nutz in Negril - our December 2012 trip report

Day 7

Another day much like the one before... We bought OJ this morning from the young man who is out early, anyone know his name? His juice is sooooo good!



After breakfast we took a walk up as far as Nirvana, scouting out locations for our next trip. And yes, we found yet another bush doctor who wanted to cure Mr. Nutz






We hung out on the beach and swam a little until it was time to get ready for the One Love Bus "end of the world" Bar Crawl. Lenbert picked us up promptly at 2:30 and greeted us warmly (and by name); we knew right away that this would be fun. Already on the bus were Westendgirl and another couple from Ottawa; quick stop at Coco to pick up CrabMan and his lovely wife and we were on our way...

We are all reading. Keep going. :-)

THE ONE LOVE BUS "END OF THE WORLD" BAR CRAWL

First stop was Sunset After Dark, which is owned by a young man from Edmonton who claims to have the biggest (1lb) and best burger in Jamaica... We'll have to go back there next trip to see if he's telling the truth




Second stop was Natural Mystic, probably the smallest bar on the island...



3rd stop was SwordFish...




4th stop was No Limit for a domino rematch...




Next up was Seastar where we got to meet GerryG as well as Rob & Lisa. Seastar was having a Sax show that night, so we got to listen to Celia Baron doing her sound check. I have to say, the webcasts don't do the place justice; the bar area is really nice, open and airy...

What? Mr Nutz had made up shirts and Lenbert got it?

I had shirts made up for both of us; Lenbert loved the fact that there was a picture of the bus on them, so Mr. Nutz gave him his at the end of the night.

For sunset, we went to Sir D's Lovenest.




Our last stop was Villas sur Mer, where we got to see the terrace at the Seaside Villa and the cave below...





Thank you to Lenbert for a great time! We had a really good group, it was laid back and fun - a great way to see some of the cliff bars and a great way to meet some new people. It wasn't expensive, but it did cost Mr. Nutz the shirt off his back LOL

I believe that juice vendor is Kevin. I usually buy from Flex. We stay at Nirvana if you want any info about it, you can PM me.

Great colourful pictures.

PS We stayed at Country Country in 2002. The bar had been washed away in a Hurricane. You had to climb over the cement divider to go next door to the Treehouse. Also there was a small bar with food in between Country Country and Crystal Waters. CC was much narrower then.
Easter Weekend the owner came with his HUGE family and they over took the beach in front of CC. They had SUV's parked on the beach ( seriously!) and set up a big tent with food for themselves. We went up to Bloody Bay every day they were there or else endure diesel fumes from the trucks and SUV's. Hopefully it is owned by other people now.

Very nice report and awesome photos! Were there only 7 of you in the bus? Very different from our experience, there must have been 25 of us. My travelling companion had a negative attitude about it to start with, and that negatively affected my enjoyment, but Lenbert was great and made a point to check in with us often. Going again next trip with a different friend, I'm sure she'll be more open to enjoying herself.

Please continue with your report...

Only 7, we were so lucky I imagine the bar crawl is only as good as the group on the bus, and we had a good one. No one got drunk or stupid, it was just a really fun way to spend the afternoon!

The juice guy is Tony - I've known him for years. Yummy juice! We bought orange juice & mango juice. He was out of pineapple ginger juice, but brought it the next day (spicy!). Nice report & pics - glad you had a wonderful time - you two deserve it!
