Sophie you are making me LOL, as I can totally relate to some of your experiences and wanting to throttle folks sometimes.
I don't know if it is where I happen to be staying, but I have never seen so many Italians in my life here in Negril. Some friendly, some not so much.
One day a bus load of tourists from another country (which will remain un-named, not Italy) came to the hotel to use the beach and restaurant. They were SO rude and obnoxious!!!! I got up from my beach lounger to go to my room for a moment and when I returned they had placed their lounge chairs on either side, front and back of my lounger, I felt like I was in a can of sardines! I mean I have no problem with that but not when it is 12" away from mine. Groups of them would stand around talking and shouting over me to the rest of their group across the beach, as well as being rude to the hotel security guy. One of them tried to skip out on paying one of the jet ski guys so there was a bit of heated patois going on with their tour guide. They basically disrupted the good vibe everyone else was into. Blowing their stinky cigarette smoke wherever they pleased, including at me. I actually had to move my lounger to the next property over. Ah well, such is a vacation sometimes.
Sophie, I knew you had mi back. Jenny, yay is right!
