*TRIP REPORT* Very interesting "welcome" to Negril for first-timers...

Hi CDN_79, I had thought about going to Jungle last Thursday to meet you, but had the chance to visit another town for a few days so guess where I went ☺ Its good to hear you had a great vacation despite the confusing start (no one wants to face that!)

HEY ~ I have a quick question for clarification of your OP: Was the hotel-arranged driver who showed up at the airport, the same person as your "mom's friend's husband's brother"?

I have a response to contribute but it changes depending on the answer to my question.

THANKS!

Hi Lola, I ended up going to the Jungle and having a good time, met some nice people, it was cool
As for your question, no it is not the same driver. My mom's friend and her husband are the ones who recommended the place to us, thats where they stay for vacation when they are here...he (the husband) is Jamaican and they visit his family in Mo Bay then go to Negril for vacation. His brother, who we originally thought we would use, we found out lives in Ocho so we didn't want to ask him to do the Mo-Bay to Negril trip as we thought it would be too far to make it worth his while. My dad used him last year for a day trip when he was in Mo Bay with his friend. So no, not the same guy at all...that would have made perhaps a tiny bit of sense, as my mom had mentioned to the owner on the phone that we would likely be using him.
