We stayed at the GP last June. The folks there were great! Say hi to Courtney (he does all the carvings) Tell him we still love our moose and we will see him again in May / June.

Thanks again for the report- job well done!!!

See you two in a few daze!

[NiceLady]

Thanks for the report! We always make sure to never miss the sunset too! It was my hubby and I from Winnipeg at canoe bar last year and we'll be in Negril next week too! See you at Seastar on the 30th if not sooner. If you reserve a boardie table, add 2 more

Seeing Sunshine smiling in all these photos lets me know he is a smart man. He has somehow captured CherryNorth for a travel partner. Thanks for packing us up in your bag for this trip. It was like being right there with you.

Have as much or more fun in the next few days as you arrive afresh in Negril. You have a great itinerary setup. Looking forward to the next report. You have made this TR really fun. Enjoy the Rock!

That shot with the two Red Stripes with the lights in the background.... best Christmas card ever!!!! Didn't you
love CoCo. Fun report.

The last two years I have made a photo calendar for both of to have at work, kind of a greatest hits of the year. That one is the highlight of December

Awesome report! Such perfect timing... cant wait for my first stay at CoCo!!!

I have no doubt you will be very happy there.

I think they just went in about waist deep, too much for me at night

Don't forget to print your itinerary this time LOL What can I say, I'm a paper girl, always print copies of everything... Old habits I guess

It is already printed! I can't promise I won't ever make the mistake again, but I'm going to be a big fan of paper for the foreseeable future.

here's a link to glistening waters you can swim or boat --- and don't go when there's a full moon

i would plan it in as a part of a longer trip to that side of the island --- maybe hit up Ocho Rios and 9-mile and spend a couple of nights

not sure it's worth the trip from negril for the night

I'm with you, it is too far to go for the evening. I expect at some point, we are going to venture to more of Jamaica than just Negril. I'm a bit torn as to whether we should head towards Ochi or Treasure Beach first. They are almost total opposites.

Loved your report and photos. What a nice trip. We don't have our trip booked but your report reminds me we have to get to it! We will be bringing our grown family with us this year so we have to wait until June. Man, the winter will be a long strange trip, indeed, here in Jersey without a trip to Negril.

I so understand the long winter! You should get on booking so you can get your ticker going. Winter is easier with the promise of paradise, even if the promise is a still a ways off. Thanks for following along

Loved looking forward to you report these last several days! And the pics too! Also look forward to the report from your upcoming trip!

Aww, thanks

Enjoy the last of your trip, as I know you will. I can't wait for next years now!!!!! :-)

Getting home is always a bit bittersweet. The bad news is it may very well be next year before the next installment. Its more fun to write about when you are about to return. Unless we get back earlier that is...you reading this Sunshine???

Great job on the report. Enjoyed reliving it with the two of you. Thank you for sharing. Having stayed at the Pineapple, I know you two will love it as much as I did. A tip...when on the beach, although the shade by the fence is inviting, try to sit closer to the clubhouse so you won't be disturbed by the guys from the other side of the fence. The food was pretty good but my favorite meal was breakfast. The omelets are fantastic. The bartenders are fun and friendly while the drinks are excellent. The staff members are friendly, accommodating and professional. They are a close group and treat the guests like family. Are you staying beachside or garden side?

I'm so hear that. We are staying on the beach side. It was a few more $$, but we didn't want to be having to cross the road on our nighttime trips to and from the beach.

Thanks for the report! We always make sure to never miss the sunset too! It was my hubby and I from Winnipeg at canoe bar last year and we'll be in Negril next week too! See you at Seastar on the 30th if not sooner. If you reserve a boardie table, add 2 more

See, this is part of why this board is so awesome! It is nice to see you again NiceLady. If it weren't for the board, we wouldn't have met last year and we'd have no way to connect again this year. It's great you're able to make it down again this year. I've got you down for 2 on the 30th. Anyone else want to join in?

Okay, trying to reply with multi quotes is making me a bit crazy! I'm changing approach.

Reggae Roy – You are welcome, it was my pleasure

Muck – Thank you!

Jitterbug – I hope perhaps our paths will cross before then. I'm with you, first in line is much better than last. We are planning on being at the airport very early this year…we've booked Club Mobay to give us further incentive to be early.

Patricia – it was such a fun trip, I'm glad that came through in the report.

Iowagirl – I'm going to try and get some Gatehouse pictures for you. You don't have long now!

JaJodi – Thank you so much. I'm hoping this one has a far less dramatic start.

Sam I am – Right back at you!

69Stang – Moose? Now there is something I haven't seen much of in Negril. I have to figure that was a special request! I'll pass the message along.

Murph – Hahaha! Please do say hello!

Bjritz – I like you more and more! I keep telling him he's a lucky man; some days he might even believe me. Thank you for your well wishes. We are so excited!
