The second island we went to, on our cruise, was Grand Cayman. It was our first time visiting the island. One downside of visiting Grand Cayman by ship is that it requires a tender boat to get you to land. Depending on how long it takes, you may not have the most time to get around. When we finally got on the land, we had about three hours. Not much time. We did walk around the port shops. They were expensive. Up the road, we found an arts and crafts tent with locals. We found much better deals. The people were super friendly. They did not even try to pressure us into a sale. The big and famous beach on this island is Seven Mile Beach. It is on the opposite side of the island. Since they do not provide maps, we were unsure of the island's size. They want you to depend on an excursion. We found a small cove where people were swimming. One daughter ran right into the water. Temperature does not bother her. It could be freezing, and she'd still run out there. Because she is deaf, I can not let her go out too far. She thinks she is a fish. The shallow parts of the beach were rocky. Luckily, I had on water shoes. They kept slipping off. When I caught up to my daughter, she would kick and push me away. I even think the port authority was coming by on a boat to tell us to go back to the shallows. I finally had to pull her out. She was not happy. She gave up when we reached the road. It is a nice island, and I wish we had seen more of it.
