Cayman 2010

We were so blessed to go to Grand Cayman with some great friends this year to celebrate the New Year. We left 3 days after Christmas & had an absolute blast. We can't wait to go back!!

Our first day, we hung out in downtown Georgetown & shopped. It was pretty cloudy & cold that morning. However, that afternoon the sun came out & it turned into a beautiful day. We went to a little bar/grill on the public beach & hung out while the kids swam & had fun in the ocean.

(Wish I could take credit for the pics this day, but our friend Jeannie, who is a prof. photographer, took these with my camera.)

Not sure where she got this idea, but it made some cute pics.

Ooooh! That water is cold!

Absolutely LOVE this picture.

The next morning we hung out on the beach at our friend's house & played in the sand. Brylon loved picking up seashells.

Look. I found a big seashell.

That afternoon, we went out on a scuba boat (our friends know the owner, so he agreed to take us out). We went to Stingray city & swam with the stingrays, then went snorkling for a little bit. The tide was pretty strong, so this was more work than it was really worth, but still a great experience. Those pics were taken with a waterproof camera & had to be sent off. Will post later.
The next day was our dolphin day. This was the day that Brylon had been waiting on ever since we told her we were going to Cayman. She loved it!

Mom even got to surf with the dolphins.
They are amazing mammals!!!
After the dolphin swim, we went across the street to the turtle farm. Brylon thought this was pretty cool too.
