Greetings from the Grand Cayman everyone! I's so much fun down here! I definitely decided that I need to move somewhere hot. I actually am really comfortable in this weather. At first I thought it was going to be WAY too hot, but no, I love it.
The flight wasn't bad at all. For those of you who didn't know, it was my first plane ride EVER. Exciting, huh? Dad told me that I was gonna freak out. Too bad I enjoyed it. Take off is my fav part :). So, I experienced take off and then I fell asleep through the rest of the flight.
The days here seem so short. But I guess that's maybe because I'm having so much fun. Let's see, what all have we done so far...
Saturday - Got here. Checked out the condo. Checked out the pool and ocean, then eventually went to bed.
Sunday - Most of everything is closed on Sundays, except for the touristy places, so thats most of what we did. First we went to the butterfly farm where butterflies from all over the world are farmed. The owner was there, so he gave us a tour, and let me tell you, he was WAY into his profession. That made things a little more interesting. Next was the turtle farm. The little baby turtles were so cute. I even worked up my strength to pick one up. I didn't really enjoy the bigger tanks. They were all gigantic, eating dog food, spraying water at eachother through they're noses, and reaking to high heaven. Then we went to hell, but it was closed. That made me sad :(.
Monday - Wow...what a day. We went to Sting Ray City. If the name isn't apparent enough, that's a sand bad where TONS of sting rays come to feed. When I got off of that boat and stepped in that water, I was PETRIFIED. For those of you who haven't come in contact with a sting ray, I suggest to take precautions. They cant really do much to you, but they are extremely intimidating. Once I got used to them, I started touching ones that would go by. They were so soft. Oh jeez, and there was this one guy who picked one up and chased me with it. It was SO scary. But I eventually got used to them...to the point where I even fed one. It was weird...When they eat, they suck things into their mouths, and then they chew. Ok, I had a chunk of nasty ass squishy squid in my hand and I was holding it out. Suddenly, a sting ray comes swimming at me and right over my hand. I felt it suck the food up, but it also sucked my whole freakin index finger into its mouth. Definitely the weirdest experience I have ever been though, but it was a fun one.
Today we did a little shopping, but it didnt get as hardcore as its going to get tomorrow. I love to shop. so that should be fun. Sarah, Holly, and I all have an appointment at 6:30ish to get our hair braided. Im debating on whether I want to do that or not...I'm thinking they're going to braid it and I'm either going to hate it, or its gonna get fucked up and I'll be all anal about it and I'll end up taking it out. Who knows. We'll see.
Anyways, It's about time for dinner, so I'm going to head out. I miss all of you, and I hope you guys are making it without me! XOXO! Peace!
