    Everything groove posted is 100% true. It's not the bus drivers fault. It's me groove lorax and everyone else on the bus. It's our fault for not speaking up. It was a down point for sure.


    But his account is 100% accurate.


    Groove. Thanks for this report. Smile on my face all the way. Great week'

    guess i need to clarify one thing....it was not like it was a husband and wife that was involved, it was someone and a friend that was met a few days earlier...not that it matters who it is....

    the reason it was a big deal is we put someone of the bus in the middle of nowhere...the reason it is a big deal t me is that it made me and my wife look in ourselves and wonder why we didnt stand up and say something...and that is the feelings of several others on the bus, as we discussed this later...we all said we were very close to saying something but none of us did... there was no evidence of violence in anyway, no one was in any danger, and the only problem was someone had TOO much to drink and was loud and obnoxious....I have several friends that are the same way....no big deal....

    It made me think about me, and I believe that I will take up for someone if something like that happens again...really the point of my story...

    Thanks for the clarification Groove. I agree with you, in our case, we did speak up and prevented that from happening, my husband actually physically separated the 2 people and I sat next to one person while he sat next to the other one. I'm just happy that nothing happened to the ejected individual, because, like you, I personally could not live with myself if something occurred.

    Thanks for the honesty.

    When I saw him a couple days later, he was so happy that I asked about him and that night , that every time he saw me the rest of the trip, he stopped what he was doing and greeted me with a fist bump....I like this guy,....lol

    Fist bump!!! I'm glad it worked out.

    Was the self appointed monitor part of the tour company?

    Before I go on to the next day, let me just say that this excursion was a great time....it was not put together by a tour company....one individual, another tourist just like you or me, put this trip together...she worked countless hours, and dealt with many,many unnecessary complaints from people who wanted things their way....i think she dealt with so many distractions that it took away from her enjoyment of her vacation... so I will say that everyone I spoke with, on both buses, all said how much fun they all had...because of the group, it was cheaper than doing it yourself, and all the company made this a great day...the pictures should tell the story of how much fun it was....there was a bump in the road, and i described it like it happened...but it was not a tour, just 2 hired drivers and Chicken, our entertaining host....chicken just happened to be on the other bus, or this would have taken another course....the "monitor" was also just a tourist, and was really a sweet girl...I really liked her, and she didnt do anything with malice or mean or anything....she just made a couple of decisions that I think should have been group decisions...that's all....

    Nice.... The day had it's bumps, however at the end of the day we all control our fun factor. The man that was booted was a local Jamaican and their is some history there that should see no mention on the www. He's a nice guy and I wish him the best...... One bus was full of people that road tripped it last year and had an amazing time. We tried to grow it this year so others could partake and at the end off the day it was simply too many people. I thank both the organizer as well as "the self appointed leader of the other bus" as your intentions were sincere. The best part of the day for me was the time chilling on the beach in Parottee while you guys went to Pelican Bar. Man, I love the South Coast and see myself spending much more time there than in Negril.....
