Rum Point & Last Night in Grand Cayman
Feb 6th
Today we went to Rum Point. It has become our tradition that we go there at least once on our trips. Rum Point is basically a spot with a few little restaurants, a gift shop and a big dock that goes out into the Caribbean. The sand there is really soft and the water is very shallow. You can almost walk all the way out to the end of the dock and the water will be only waist deep. It was sunny and warm, with a few clouds now and then.
After we left Rum Point, we headed back to our resort. We all went in the hot tub for a while before dinner. We have some leftover food, so we are trying to eat as much of it as we can. We made a frozen pizza and Bob and I both had some Ramen noodles. We then watched a movie and are now starting to pack for our departure tomorrow afternoon. We have to be checked out of our room by 11, but we are going to sit by the pool until we need to leave for the airport.
One thing I haven’t talked about is the driving. Down here they drive on the left side of the street. That takes some getting used to. You have to look the opposite direction for traffic, and always turn into the left lane. We also had a car that had the steering wheel on the left side. So, that was weird. The turn signals are also on the opposite side. In the United States they are on the left side, but in our car they were on the right and the windshield wipers were on the left. So, for the first couple days, when we were turning the windshield wipers came on instead of the blinker.
Looking back, it has been a great trip and a great time diving. The weather has been nice and warm. It is always hard to leave a place that you have so much fun at, but I guess its back to reality. Our flight leaves tomorrow afternoon and we will be back in the USA. Until then, we will be enjoying every last minute. See you all when we get back.
