Here I was!

Well, I thought I'd use this opportunity to post some of my Grand Cayman pics for those of you who haven't seen them yet - enjoy! It was a great week of snorkelling every day, swimming, reading, playing beach volleyball, and sampling the nightlife.

The first picture is a bit of a map to show you where we were...the "dive site" is where we jumped in from the Burger King parking lot and swam out for 10 minutes - it was the most amazing coral reef we saw (and people were paying $40 to get out there), can you imagine ever seeing something beautiful starting in a Burger King parking lot??

Thanks to Pat for the map photo - his skills are legendary!

Ahhh....
Rum Point on a hammock

Us at Rum Point
Me, Pat, Emily and Mo

Turtle Farm
Me and a turtle, who may be returned to the ocean, but may be eaten. This guy's a baby, but some were 700 lbs!

Me in the shade
This is us taking advantage of the Westin and using their facilities, shhhh.

Hiking in the "jungle"
This is the Mastic Trail, mostly ruined by Hurricane Ivan. The ground wasn't rock covered, it was coral outcroppings, very surreal

On the boat
On our way to Stingray City, lazing on the boat

Me with the stingrays!
Such a cool experience, they come right up and lay on your arms, and suck squid out of your hand

Flatness
So this is the ruined mangrove swamps (Hurricane Ivan strikes again) and you can see the cruise ship on the OTHER side of the island, its that flat.

Burning in Hell
Yes, its called Hell, yes its touristy, no its not that fun.

Bonfire
This was a long way from anywhere, and so nice, just like in Canada...except on the beach and hotter

View from Mo's balcony
Panorama we woke up to every morning

On the Tiki-Bus
The obligatory night out, it only got worse from here

Attack of the Giant Lizard
I swear, this thing almost crushed us!

That is by far the best map of Grand Cayman I've ever seen. Cudos!! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun, but that really skinny guy kinda ruined some of your otherwise good pics. Oh well, I guess it takes all types... Have a great time in Vietnam!! If you can learn how to say "I'm a stupid foreigner" in vietnamese, then all doors will be open to you...
