Oh my goodness. I think I'm glad I didn't have wifi access at my hotel. I'm so sorry all of this has gotten blown way out of proportion. First of all, this was not a major topic of conversation at our breakfast. At least, not to my recollection. We had sooooooo much fun and lots of laughs and incredible food and RG's yaard location might have been a blip in the conversation.
For my part of it, I recall saying that I am bummed that I've never been able to meet you RG. That we've been in Negril at the same time on many occasions but that we've never had the chance to get together. I mentioned that after we spent so much time working together on the map and how instrumental you were in getting that first map done back in 2006 that I'd always wanted to meet you. I mean, we really put in some countless hours on that project! And I STILL want to meet you someday so we can have a drink of all that hard work we put in.
I can't speak for anyone else but I, personally, was curious to see the location of your yaard simply because I've heard you talk about it so much that it's kind of nice to see a little picture in your mind when someone talks about something. And yes, you've described it many times so I've tried to kind of picture what it was like so, if in fact we did see the right location, it only helps me to have a little bit of a visual when you talk about it. But as you said, we really couldn't see much besides a wall and a gate. LOL. Similar to that picture I tried to have in my brain before I came to Negril that first time. After working tirelessly on the graphic design for the map having never seen the place, it certainly was NOTHING like I had pictured in my mind. And I'll never forget my first question as we were walking to our room at Rondel... "which way is the beach"! HA HA. Seems like such a stupid question now.
Anyway, I know there is back history between others in this thread and that can always lead to more "heated" reactions and comments. I'm sad to get the impression that some people may think our wonderful breakfast was some big negative bitch session when it was nothing of the kind. I'm sorry anything negative has come out of such a fantastic morning. I had a wonderful day meeting some wonderful new friends. I promise to post photos of the stunning yard at Jus Natural from our little tour as soon as I have a chance to download everything off my camera.
And RG... I truly do hope we have the chance to meet someday
