Don’t be surprised for a cab driver to tell you he knows the route to a destination when he has no idea where it is. He plans on finding out as he goes along and you may find yourself lost searching for your destination with a driver who has never been to the place you seek. Private cab drivers are most often entrepreneurs of all sorts and into many other side businesses. One recent ride in a private car with a guy had us witness him sell a dozen bootleg DVD movies from a rather healthy collection of what he called “di best movies in Jamaica mon”. I was tempted to grab a copy of the latest Harry Potter for $100JA but chose not to for some reason. He was offering a 6 for $500JA on that friday that was popular it seemed. He sold three sets from the beach to the room or about 10 minutes. He also had $400JA worth of Digicell phone cards for $300JA which was also very tempting but

Walking in Negril is a great way to get around but caution is advised. The roads all over Jamaica are pretty fast paced and narrow and walking on a road with no shoulders and traffic flying by you and your young ones may not be the way to go for everyone. Jamaican drivers are normally very skilled and taxi cabs, mini vans and even tour buses run around town like Formula One Racers but you’ll need to be careful on roads such as West End Road in the Negril Cliffs which twist and turns leaving a few blind corners where cars come pretty close to you when passing another car and you at once. The rain gulleys and unfinished shoulders make walking a hazard without the endless parade of vehicles on a busy day and getting around some areas is best done off hours or by car.

For those with the heart and legs for it riding a bicycle around Negril is just perfect. I brought a used dual suspension Pro Flex mountain bike, which I purchased for $200US in Ocala Florida, on the plane with us and was it worth the effort. I ride everywhere now and can shoot from the Lighthouse near the top end of the cliffs to the beginning of Negril Beach in just a couple short minutes. 24 speeds, big fat shocks and a semi cushy seat makes for some sweet riding anywhere in Negril and I’ve been off road and breaking new ground with the bike this trip. Sadly my camera is not keeping up and the SD card I brought has failed me so not so many pics as I would like right now but soon come. I’m on my way to Kingston for a shopping trip and the SD card is top of my list. Riding a bike is great but keep aware of the cars and impatient drivers on roads in Negril at least. it seems cyclists are frowned upon. I’ve used the bike to run trips to the beach and grocery. I also use it for exploring the many side streets and for getting to know the area a little better. I suggest to anyone that can bring a bicycle to Negril Jamaica and enjoy some great riding conditions and a super way to enjoy the city from a different view. Bringing a bicycle on AirJamaica was very easy for me and I even overloaded the box with a total of 72 lbs weight for one overweight charge of $75US. I brought the bike, my tent, my dive gear, a full size fishing pole and tackle box in one cardboard box and was glad I did.

Taking a bike back is easy enough but leaving one to some needy kid in the area would be an even better way to get to know people. I’ve been letting some of the local kids use the bike and I’m making friends with it. I don’t suggest you do so with anything you really care about because it can very easily be stolen from them or even by them. Understand a $200US bike is worth a lot to a hungry family and even the most honest kids can be tempted into things they would not normally do. It’s a calculated risk I take as I try to open relationships with some of the people around me and not for everyone. Some people can start to expect things from those that give often and it can be difficult to say no when you need to.

Now getting around Jamaica is another scene and I think maybe we’re going to look at buying a car in Jamaica as a tourist. I think for us to see all we want to see it will help for us to have our own car and with the prices of things it looks promising we’ll buy a car in Kingston soon. If so then we’ll be doing much more traveling and I’ll have lots more to show you about Jamaica and Negril.
