Little Cayman March/Apr 2007

My seemingly annual trip to LC was a blast from the past as expected. I was supposed to be there for 11 days but I managed to stretch it out into 15! It was very windy the whole time I was there but of course it was warm and sunny so having to dive on the less-spectacular south side of the island most of the time was a minor inconvenience for all the Fun (with a capital F) that was had.

My sister Kathy celebrated a milestone birthday at the beginning of the trip, Paul quietly made his 200th dive (he didn't tell anyone as we would have done something fun (for us) like throw him in the water with a heavy weight belt...), I was able to relive my legend days by helping out on Sea-Esta, Ann survived a gnarly finger-bite from a brown recluse spider, Ben nearly lost 2 fingers mooring the boat, the local rooster was voted to the dump to crow as much as he likes with his mates, Caleb left the island 'for good' for the 7th time (yeah, right), the island lost its paramedic but nurse M-E renewed her contract for 2 more years! And so much more.... Amazing what can happen in such a short time on a speck of land with 150 inhabitants in the middle of the north-western Caribbean Sea!

Here is a glimpse of some of the "good times, good times" as Swaby always says...

Rod, it looks great! Next year we'll have to get our timing together. We'll be looking for that white seahorse next week!

Actually, it was Paul's 300th dive!!

And, thank you for not saying WHICH birthday it was.

It was a really fun trip, even with you working all the time!
