Grand Cayman Day 2

Today we started earlier with an 8:10 pickup by Neptune Divers.  Diver destinations:  Trinity Caves and Tuluga.  The first one was another WALL dive with 100 ft maximum depth.   We dove through caverns that were covered with beautiful flora.   IMG_4451

I took lots of pictures inside the caves but they didn’t turn out as well as I hoped.   Thus the reason for our big purchase this afternoon: a underwater flash/strobe.

The second dive was a reef dive and it was covered with fish of all sizes and colors.   We swam with a small turtle and some good size grouper.    We spotted a large lobster out in the open and wished we could have grabbed it for dinner.  IMG_4523

From the boat we saw two turtles mating and when we tried to get close they got shy and went underwater. 

We went and explored the island a bit anticipating a return trip in the years to come.  We visited a Skate/Wave park that we figured Kenny’s kids would love.  We saw the LDS meetinghouse and it reminded us of the one in St. Kitts.  The main stop was to Cathy’s Church which is a camera shop.  We decided it was time to invest in an underwater flash/strobe.   I am hoping that it will improve the pictures that I take on the deeper dives.  Only tomorrow will tell…and probably a few dives trouble shooting. 

Dinner was at Chicken! Chicken!   We had wood roasted chicken with a variety of different side dishes.  On the walk back, we stopped in at Wendy’s for yummy milkshakes.
