A First for Cruisin'

Even though we have only been on six cruises, we did experience something today that has never happened to us before...we were not able to enter one of the ports of call! We were supposed to be spending today on Grand Cayman Island, but instead we are enjoying another day at sea. Grand Cayman is one of two ports (Belize the other) where the water is too shallow to dock and we have to "tender" in to the port from the cruise ship. Today their was unusually high winds and swells in the harbour and we were unable to safely get the small tender boats up to the dock area...sooooo....off to sea we go. Actually, for Delinda and me it is no big deal as we have been to Cayman twice before. However, we do feel sorry for those who had never seen this beautiful tropical paradise and we were kind of looking forward to a little shopping. We will, instead, enjoy another restful and relaxing day reading, sleeping and best of all...eating entirely too much. The food so far has been fabulous. Last night was lobster and cherries jubilee!!!! Sunday night was steak and creme brulee!!! Can't wait to see what is on the menu tonight.
