One of the highlights of my trip was going on the snorkelling lobster lunch with Lobster (Captain Moses son). On the way out to the reef we saw lots of starfish (which I just love). Those who wanted life jackets were given them and they tied them around your waist. So if you're not a strong swimmer this is still something you can definately do. We snorkelled on the reef and saw the huge anchor and the cannon, I saw a big sea horse (which was one of the things I wanted to see) as well as a string ray. This was the 2nd sting ray I saw, the first one swam by very close to shore while swimming one day. That was cool to see. All the boats park for a few mins on the reef, Captain Papa (who drove us out there) said it was his personal Discovery channel, lol. All of the boats except another boat driven by Captain Kirk. He remained parked on the reef and they are not supposed to do this. Lobster yelled at him telling Kirk he knows they are not supposed to do this at it kills the reef, but Kirk did not move his boat and ignored Lobster telling him off.... Captain Kirk sure seems like a jerk, he should know better and obviously doesn't care.
Anyway, we had a guide who got in the water with us and pointed things out to us. I can't remember his name but he would swim down and pick up a conch and hand it around.. really wish I had an underwater camera to take pics, its incredible down there with the pretty coloured fish....just loved it.
After swimming we went to Booby Cay island and Captain Moses was there making a delicious lunch of a whole lobster with rice and peas and veg, with garlic butter it was fabulous!! Lots of rum punch, soda or red stripe....I really enjoyed that, what a fun day. Great fun for $50 you can't beat that, you pay for everything ahead of time. I understand that they used to have you buy your lobster and drinks on the island so this is much better. I highly recommend this
That evening went to Bourbon Beach for dinner
Did you know that there's a guy who looks exactly like Snoop Dog? Well, yes there is... wish I had my phone to take a picture of him, LOL. He was telling me they all call him Snoop Dog and I said don't you mean Snoop LION? Well he laughed and laughed at that one.
That evening I went to Canoe for dinner and had the Lionfish and chips with a Ceasar...excellent!! Everybody said the Lionfish was delicious and they were right. Took home a piece of Key Lime pie cheesecake to eat later.
When I had driven past Canoe I wondered what all the fuss was about cause from the outside it looks like a trailer. Well it's just the cutest place. The way the couches are set up its so cozy, comfortable and cute and will def come back here again to hang out. I'm really sorry that I missed the steel drums and all of the webcasts for that matter. I had great intentions but ... sand gravity hits again
I am so happy that I got to visit the cliffs this trip. I had only been there once before while on a Catamaran sunset cruise that went to Ricks Cafe. If you have not been to the cliffs area you are missing out on an incredible experience. I am a beach person, I just love to swim and love walking into the water on sand, but would consider staying on the cliffs for a few days before going to the beach and would def like to go to the Cliffs most nights for dinners, they have amazing restaurants up there.
Here's a t-shirt I picked up from Times square...LOL
So I was all packed up and handed in my towel, said my goodbyes and left a few things with the locals I made friends with. I was very lucky to have met Jenn and Brian from the Board, they are a fabulous couple and had quite a few laughs with them.
Max from Luxurious picked me up exactly on time and I arrived early with lots of time to look around the Airport and did the Club Mobay for departure. I really enjoyed this, they make a delicious Strawberry Mango Dacquiri with coconut rum.... YUMMY! They had soup, small patties, sandwiches, chips, cookies and sushi. But the drink...wow, I had 2 and would have had more of these... one of the nicest drinks I have ever had.
I went to the duty free and picked up a nice bottle of Scotch, Cadbury chocolate and a few t-shirts so finished souvenirs for everybody on my list. Sat in the lounge and used the wifi. There are 3 different rooms one for families, one with music and the one at the far end was quiet and seemed to be nicer inside. They really pay attention to detail there and its a nice experience, so much nicer than sitting in the regular seating area.

Our plane was delayed for almost an hour for take-off, something to do with MBJ requiring 10 minutes between take offs so we were number 6. Anyway we waited on the plane and off we went.
Not sure what island this is ... but lovely
I had 10 wonderful days and hopefully can do 2 weeks next year. The very long wait was worth it... I just love Negril
