Lizards in Flower Pots...oh my!

This big fellow was so hungry, that he didn't care about getting INTO the flower pot and helping himself to the dinner. I have video as well that could be disturbing....if you are freaked out by BIG iguanas.....But seriously, he just wanted to eat.

Quick video of school of fish

This is the first time I tried to put a video on this Blog.....hope it works out. I find it is better to not make it the full screen. You can see the fish better on the little screen.

A school of the beautiful blue fish right in our beach not 30 feet from shore!

Enjoy....you are now snorkelling!!!

Fun in the Sun

At Paradise Restaurant, if you swim out a bit, you can climb up on the raft that is anchored and have fun.

Which is exactly what Donna did!

Monday we went to Paradise Restaurant to snorkel. It was quite wavy.....and we had to get up the courage to 'plunge' ahead....so to speak.

It was well worth the effort. The fish were magnificent. There were hundreds of them. Some we hadn't seen yet. Each time we snorkel with our underwater camera we come home with 200-500 new pictures!!! Hope you like fish?

Abbey Road in Cayman? Part 2

Even the fish are imitating the Beatles???

Deb's Hat Adventure continues

I will post the one she decided on later.....she keeps us guessing?

Randoms in Cayman

Our Friends at Coral Sands

Ky and Dennis from Washington, DC. Ky is really funny. Dennis has been giving us a few 'tidbits' that we were unaware of. Such as, between 7-8pm the grocery stores marks down all their pastries to .99 cents. There is an all-you-can-eat fish and chips at the Irish Pub, Fidel Murphy, (just down the street), on Monday nights. He is a wealth of knowledge and we appreciate his sharing it with us.

Each year we come to Coral Sands we meet new people from all over the world. These people have been coming to Coral Sands for years and we have gotten to know them over the time we have had a timeshare there.

From Long Island, New York is our friends, affectionately known as the Italian couple, originally from Sorrento, Italy, Antoinette and Alfonzo.

From Chicago, Illinois, is Lanny and Atara. Atara spends about 3 months here in the winter. She is so fascinating and a ton of fun. Originally from Poland, born during the Second World War, her family was always moving to keep up with the 'front.' She is writing a book about her life.

Each day, Antoinette and Alfonzo, get their floating mattress and head into the ocean. About half an hour of floating a few times of day is there routine. Calm or wavy, they still go in.

This is Brenda from Boston. She and husband, Jeff, (the fellow in the next picture with the towel on his chair), came this year on the wrong week?? Which meant they bunked it with other guest for their first week, moved into their condo for their second week, and sold their 'actual' week booked to Debbie......and she is staying in Cayman one week longer than Karen, Tammy, Donna and I........because she is now retired!!!

These people are so friendly. We enjoy them so much. Each morning everyone goes out onto the patio and visits and then we all do our own thing. Getting together at sunset again to witness that beautiful event.

We look forward to seeing them all again the next year, God willing.

Iguanas Part 6

Donna's goal, before we leave Cayman, is to touch/catch one of these little geckos! And touch the BIG iguanas?

I asked her if she bought medical insurance in case it grabs her nose....or worse!

These are the little ones I remember last time we were here. About 2 years ago. They run all around the patio. Looking like cartoon characters because they move so fast.
