These pictures only make me want the week to be over. My wife, “Rumcake”, and I will be sitting at Rum Point in just a few more days.
I can hardly tolerate the cold & snow after looking at these. . .
Make the one more bumper sticker.

This is one of my favorite areas near the Lighthouse. Every time I pass by it has a different feel, depending on the time of day and sea conditions. These were taken later in the afternoon when the light was reflecting through the waves and casting strong shadows on the rocks.
The area is not conducive to swimming but it’s one of my favorite places to stop and relax, gaze at the sea and ruminate about the things that are really important in life.
[hr]Those pictures of Rum Point are gorgeous! We were just there one week ago today, so looking at your pictures and thinking about what a fun, relaxing day we had there is just killing me!
I took many of the same shots that you did, even of the parrot, but mine don’t compare whatsoever to yours!
Thanks!

What a fantastic spot for relaxing. Hope one of those hammocks is open when I get there!!

Rum Point is top on our list this year! We have never made it before so this year we are definately going to get over there.
I Imagine we will do a bit of snorkeling, have lunch and enjoy the view. Since I will consume two glasses of wine, I won’t be able to drive for two hours. Oh well, I guess i’ll just sit down in a hammock and wait. Sounds like heaven. There WILL be such a photo in my trip report.
In the old days, they used to plant medicinal plants in the sand gardens in front of the house, well before manicured lawns and imported flowers started arriving from Miami. To this day, many people – myself included, grow plants for medicine, such as sour sop and aloe.
[hr]This is one of thousands of unique colorful flowers they have blooming everywhere.

Here’s some more from the Botanical Park. The colors there change so frequently, every time I go it’s like a different place. I am going back in a couple of weeks when the cherry blossom orchids should be in full bloom. They are a spectacular colorful sight and Cayman’s national flower.
[hr]P.S. See you soon…tomorrow?!?!
Beautiful pictures and thanks for sharing them…. Did you ever get your Nikon D70 back from Cathy Church? Were you using a replacement D70 for those shots? Use a macro auto setting or manual? Thanks again.
