If you love Jamaica let me see your hand - A Trip Report

[rocknrollfarmer]

Cherry & Sunshine! This is incredible! I'd like to share this with you quickly. {As I need to get to outside and finish up about 100 "things to do" here on the farm. Winter is coming. Probably with a vengeance! But anyhoo, I couldn't sleep, and got up and went to the computer for my daily Negril.com addiction. I clicked on your "newbie" report ,and wow, the details, details.... It sucked me right in. Loved it. As the further I went , then you put pictures of yourself and Sunshine, then it dawned on me ."hey, I know you from the One Love bus trip last December! We stayed at Coco. We shared some Red Stripes & conversation at Seastar Inn! What a fun time! It truly is a small world. We have been to Negril 9 times, and our 10th trip is coming up in December. We are trying something new this trip. A split trip 7 nites at Seastar and 4 at Treehouse. Can't wait. Negril is truly our 2nd home. We have so many Jamaican friends now ,from over the years. I consider those folks dear friends now. Thanks for your trip reports, and maybe we'll hang out again some time! One love. Todd + Deb from Minnesota a.k.a Rock'n'Roll Farmer"

OMG, that is awesome! Its connections like these that are such a unexpected benefit of sharing our story. You've got me searching my memory banks trying to connect you to the right face. Did we see you at the Luciano show on Saturday as well?

Our paths may very well cross again this year, as we will be in Negril until December 7.

I read your last trip report, what grabbed me right away was the quote you posted "Never forget anticipation
is an important part of life." I say that to everyone when people ask me why I love travel so much. Especially to Jamaica. Really enjoy your writing.!!!

So happy that you're back posting again -I LOVED your first report. But alas - I just realized that you're doing the day by day approach again which makes perfect sense...and I was so spoiled by being able to binge-read the last one! OK, I know, I have to relax and practice my soon-comes! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful writing.

Glad you enjoyed the first one - just think of it as a little mini Jamaican getaway each day. I may not manage to get it all done in 10 days this year, but you'll see the end before we fly back again - which is only 16 days away.

great start! Penthouse... o sweet sweet penthouse...

Ha, Ha, love it! I'm humming right along. And great avatar - if I am guessing the location right, this report is going to take you back there too.

Thanks jojo. I really do think at least half of the fun is traveling is the excitement of knowing it's coming. At the risk of sounding terribly spoiled, I HATE not having some sort of travel plans to count down to.
