Moving On

Dan and I are officially moved out! We left the beautiful Grand Cayman Island a couple weeks ago and landed in our new home in St. Thomas! We are so excited to start this new chapter in our lives and can't wait to see where it takes us! For now, I am going to tell you about my favorite moments in Cayman. We had a blast living there and can't wait till we can go back and visit.
If you ever go to Grand Cayman, I would say the number one tourist activity, and Dan and my favorite thing we did, was Sting Ray City. It was the coolest thing to be out in the middle of the ocean, standing in four feet of water on a sand bar, and have wild sting rays swarming around you, nudging you for food. It was such and awesome experience and I wish I could go back right now and do it again!
Our second favorite thing was the beach. Just going on our day off and laying on the beach, playing in the water, watching the sunset, was the best feeling ever. The beaches in Cayman are white, with very fine sand, and clean as could be! They are beautiful! Three of the prettiest spots we would hang, would be Smiths cove, seven mile beach, and rum point. Smiths cove was within walking distance so we would go there a lot after work and on our days off without having to pack a lunch or anything. We were able to go there for the morning, go home for lunch, then we would be there again for the rest of the day. Seven Mile Beach was where all the resorts were located. So it wasn't as private as smiths cove was but it was a much bigger beach that gave us more space to play. We also could walk along the water for forever. A lot of times we would take the public bus to the beach and walk along it during the sunset. Rum point was pretty far away from where we were so we couldn't go there as often as we would have liked to, but it's like a little heaven on earth. There are big trees everywhere that give you plenty of shade, cute little board walks, a long pier, and the water color was just amazing. They also have a little restaurant the serves the best food! That was where Dan and I went on our anniversary and we hung out there all day long and enjoyed the water and most of all, the scenery.
Our last but not least top favorite activity is snorkeling. Cayman is known to have some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving spots! We saw so many pretty reefs, bright colored fish, Sharks, Eels, turtles, pretty much everything! There are so many great places to snorkel I wouldn't even know where to begin! I would probably say anyplace you snorkel, has something amazing to see.
Dan and I will miss Grand Cayman and look forward to visiting it again! We loved our time there, the things we did, the people we met. It will all be missed.
