We barely stayed out of jail in the ensuing verbal exchange, but eventually moored off the southern end of the island... |
...where the snorkeling off the boat was good, and so was the fishing. |
Frank did some diving while Barb and Bob relaxed, and then it was time to head for Grand Cayman Island, which had just been hit by a Cat 5 hurricane. |
Instead of clearing in at the Yacht Club (destroyed), we were forced to the Commercial dock where Customs told us to go under the cranes you see here! |
Did someone say Piña Coladas? |
The limestone island is pock marked with caves, some of which provided settlers with refuge from hurricanes. |
After picking up Frank Varnell, we left Jamaica for the Cayman Islands, stopping first at Cayman Brac |
The friendly locals helped us find a disused mooring in the narrow channel between the reef and the beach just off dive resort. |
