Grand Cayman Vacation


    Swimming with the sting rays at Sting Ray City

We just got back from the caymans and had a fantastic time.  We went with the boys and Joe's brother John, his wife Courtney, and daughter, Bella.  Everything was great from the weather, to the place we stayed, to the beaches and pools, and of course, the TAN!

Carter loved everything about the island and he keeps asking if we can live there.  Carter was swimming all around, jumping off the sides of the pool, and grabbing turtles left and right at the Turtle Farm.  Aidan on the other hand made us hold him where ever we went and didn't like the sand too much.  He would start getting comfortable somewhere right when we were ready to leave.

We did some amazing things, like swimming, feeding and holding the sting rays at Sting Ray City.  That was probably the best part and most nerve racking.  Joe and John went on four scuba dives and just loved it.  They some some great wild life: a barracuda, a huge turtle, and a SHARK!!!  We went to the Turtle Farm and Carter was just picking up turtles left and right; he had a great time.  We went "spelunking" in Pirate Caves, and "rock climbed" out to a blow hole.  We also went snorkeling, which Courtney and I thoroughly enjoyed (not really).  We did some cool stuff, like an eel, a huge lobster, and cool fish.

We did have such a great time. I think it is funny that we both started a blog right after Grand Cayman. However, since all the pictures are on John's computer, I have yet to make a post about it.
