whereas,
you're gonna be there for TWO-months(.!!!..),
by about month-#2 you'll be *ready* for a change-of-pace
and antsy for some non-tourist stuff
lol
lol
lol
firstly,
i haven't been on-island in 2-years,
so,
some things
(which i'll *describe* below)
*may* have changed since then
however,
i'm pretty confident that things haven't changed that much
as somebody mentioned (above in this thread)
stay alert, and look-out for the various banners, signs, flyers, posters, etc that area always here & there around Negril ---- primarily at the round-about, near ValueMaster supermarket. Sometimes you'll see 'em stuck on utility poles and/or trees and/or on a building wall.
Inside stores & shops (such as beauty parlor/salon, or barber shops) you'll find flyers and/or small signs.
another good-place to check for announcements is around the Negril bus/car-park (over-by the police station) ....
[[[ off topic::>> f.y.i.... you'll probably stumble upon some GREAT eatin' places (daytime) around that bus park ]]]
Sometimes,
you might run into some-somebody(s) passing out flyers, cards, etc announcing an event.
in your case,
whereas you're staying in a WestEnd "..house.."
i suggest that you chat-up your host/hostess and/or security-person(s), housekeeper(s), grounds-person(s), neighbors, etc. and tell 'em of your interest/desire to check-out *whatever* is scheduled/planned.
i MUST mention,
that it's NOT a good idea under any circumstances whatsoever for ANY-event to do the '..advance ticket purchase..' thing-y ~~~ pay at the door, even if the price is a likkle higher.
IF,
you hear-of, and opt to go over-to Lucea, GreenIsland, OrangeBay, SavLaMar, CousinsCove, LancesBay, BullsBay, etc etc for a night event, 'twould be a good idea to arrange a driver to take ya & bring ya back.
which reminds me,
taxi-men and drivers KNOW where all the parties are gonna be. .... check with them.
in fact,
with a driver
you might be able to make an appearance at 2 or 3 parties ---- that should/could be big-fun..!!..
I can easy-er-ly imagine,
you-all riding to a party in GreenIsland,
and along the way you see a large gathering of folks party-ing some(?)-place along the road.
'Twould be a GOOD-opportunity to tell the driver to-STOP ... so you-all could pop-in on the party for a drink, fun, music, snack, and then hop back in the car for the next-party.
as i type,
dunno why,
but a likkle-voice is whispering to me that some(?)-group such as the Negril Chamber of Commerce *might* be throwing a shindig some-place (e.g., at the Negril Golf Course club house). Those types of dress-up, hang-out with the big-folks events/parties can be VERY interesting and big-fun, as well.
in closing,
that-*voice* whispered again::::>>> *might* be something going on at the round-about craft market beach area, or some other non-tourist beach-front location (e.g., Office of Nature vicinity, Waves, or that other public beach area, just beyond Cosmos, etc.)
keep ya eyes peeled, and your ears open
chat up people & let 'em know of your *interests*
have fun
and PLEASE post and let us know whatcha do, and where you went, if you do.
