regardless , something has to be done or it will be exactly the same forever . If they make money from the tourists then it is the tourist that must be protected . But I really think that they just don't get it .When our group go out for dinner ( usually 6 times in 2 weeks ) we , the group of 6-8 people , spend about $100 each on food , drinks , tips , and now taxi's . As an example ,my daughter-in-law had her b'day meal at Ivan's . My sister paid the bill which was north of $800 US tip in . Our taxi took us to Ivan's and back .
The people in this group would have LOVED !!!! to walk part way back , check out a couple of little places ,have a drink and carry on . BUT NOT NOW !!!! It's taxi door to door . Too much "A" game for these old guys and we are the ones with the $'s . Rob us ??? why ,we carry cards at night !!!! if we aren't stopping at small places . I apologize for the run on but I still have a spirit to see/do things but being killed isn't one of them . Next year our group will be 12 people consisting of 12 rooms but it will be 1 week in TB and 1 week in Negril but I would love to have it 1 week on the cliffs and 1 week on the beach .
