Awesome!!!! Amazing pics!
That photo of you is fantastic, it looks like it should be in a travel magazine.....or at least a Red Stripe ad!

I love it!

Sweet pictures....Nice report too~ Please keep them coming.

Beautiful Pics... your day #2 sunset (your Red Stripe ad pic) was viewed from the same massage hut that I jump from almost every day that we are there. I'm pretty sure that I didn't run into you on your patio, but I did swim up to jump from the bridge a couple of times. Glad you had a great time!

Excellent report so far. Rockhouse is really nice. It's probably the most calm water anywhere on the Cliffs because there is kind of an inlet .... I am assuming you guys are vegetarians? You eat GOOD ... Negril is well suited to a large variety of food tastes ....

Hey GerryG! Yup, we're vegan and that's part of why we chose Jamaica in the first place. Very easy to eat fantastic food every day, in Negril at least. More on that later.

Russ In Mn - I never saw anyone jump from the massage hut so we must have missed you. I really did love Rockhouse. Can't wait to go back.

Try the fresh hot coco bread in the morning at Out of Town pastry shop up the road past Ricks .... Good stuff

[Russ In Mn]

I can vouch for OoTP. Wonderful vegetable loafs and coco bread. Must get there early though (noon) before they're gone.

TBC - Didn't jump Fri or Sat this trip due to the rougher seas but every other day... I was there. Maybe we'll see each other next year, we're already booked for 12th - 22nd. February Roll Call???

Is coco bread vegan, though? It tastes so buttery!! Not sure how it's made, but if they can make something that luscious vegan - wow and yay!!!!

Ya know, I know butter is used in the traditional recipe but I bet you could use coconut oil and make a fine one! I can just imagine a nice warm coco bread with the hint of coconut. Yum!!

Day 3

We started the day with a great breakfast at Rockhouse... hashbrowns, callaloo, grilled tomato, and toasted coconut bread with ginger jam.
More snorkeling, reading in our lounge chairs, followed by a quick nap and more Ras Rody for lunch.





Up next.... the ONE LOVE PUB CRAWL!!!!
So nice to meet fellow boardies on our crawl. What a fun day. And Bob Marley's birthday to boot!



First stop, Mi Yard!



I made a new friend. Rasta Richard!





Next, On The Rocks!
