Nora & Her Family
in the Caymans
Ahhhhh.
Had a lovely, relaxing dinner al fresco at the hotel.
Stacie and I split a bottle of champagne. The food was
wonderful, the service just dandy courtesy of our waitress
from County Limerick. Spectacular sunset, with the red ball
of the sun just melting into the sea.
I was a good girl this morning and headed down to the gym
for a workout. Came back, showered and watched a storm roll
in. There's nothing quite like a storm at sea. Pitchfork
lightning, and a sudden, drumming rain that sent my mother
and me back indoors. Wonderfully dramatic black clouds and
silver sea. But it was over in five minutes. We wiped off
the table, took the cushions off the chairs, and by the time
breakfast was delivered for all of us, the sun was shining.
We geared up and headed into George Town, where the
passengers of three cruise ships had also decided to spend
the morning. Despite the astounding crowds, we had a fine
time of it. I bagged myself a beautiful diamond bracelet.
Sort of heart-shaped links with little clover shaped studs
between. Very delicate. I seem to be making quite a
collection of these.
Souvenirs were had by all. Hats, shell trinket boxes,
candles, fridge magnets. We did the serious tourist thing,
then headed back to the hotel. Down to the pool to cool off,
engage in margarita time. A light lunch and zoning.
Two little tow-headed kids in the pool today. Brother and
sister. The girl was maybe two, the boy about four. Fun to
watch--and entertaining to see their parents split duties
and try to keep up with each of them.
We're doing Italian tonight. I may catch a nap first.
