Today, we visit the Grand Cayman Islands in all of its splendor. I have to take my daily snapshots so I go up to the top deck and I can see 7-Mile Beach in the distance. After
a few dozen shots, I head back to have my daily breakfast before the crew heads to our tender. While we are on the boats that would take us to the Island, I gaze into the water and realize that it is a perfect blue color. I mean a RICH blue and clear too. I'd never seen anything like it before and felt like I was in heaven for real.
Once we arrived at the beach, I ran (yes, ran) to the sand and just walked barefoot in awe. You see, I'm used to the beach at Coney Island (blech), Rye (yawn) and Fire Island (okay) but this was way better than all of them. The further down I stuck my feet the cooler the sand was. And, it was perfectly clean!!!! We proceeded to grab some beach chairs so that we could laze for a few hours while my sister tanned (who knows for what cause they are both already tanned but whatever, we're on vacation!). Libra is not a water sign but ever since I was a little girl, I've always been attracted to water. I would beg my mother to let me play in the rain, I'll take walks in the rain or just sit by a window and watch it rain. Listening to it has a very calming, sensuous affect on me. So, while they tanned I headed to the ocean. I'm not a strong swimmer but adequate enough that I felt comfortable. Being able to see the ocean floor was so tranquil I closed my eyes and thanked GOD for blessing me with this trip. Later on, I took a nap and then treated myself to some mahi mahi (dolphin fish) which was delectable.
After a few hours of fun, sun and sand we decided to head back to town to pick up some gifts. We all found some really good bargains so after a little sightseeing, headed back to the tender that would take us to our ship. I'll definitely be returning to Grand Cayman in the future.
