wow ...thanks for taking the time to write all that....I have been with the anjo hines family in redground for 2/3 of my life from 19 in 1978 till 60 now. have gone from "little boy" to "old timer" now. I wish I could write like you because I enjoy all your postings. I always relate to your post having had many similar experiences. It may be Negril but when I go to Jamaica I go to Jamaica not a resort on the beach.(its just near the beach). thanks again for your writing its a great story from a great storyteller...……..view of Negril beach from our home
Developing a close enough relationship with a local Jamaican family (regardless of the location in Jamaica) where you can stay and learn about the culture and history is a great experience. One I have been lucky enough to do several times over the years.
In those 36 years, I have never stayed at an All Inclusive and only walked on a property of one a couple of times to see friends who were staying there. I was lucky enough to start my trips to Jamaica by camping out and staying in low-cost accommodations highly recommended by Lonely Planet Travel Guides.
Here is a camping picture from St. Mary many years ago.
Respect.
