Just got the two pics I bought on the Stingray City excursion (from Bonedry Photos - we did the DCL excursion with Dave Foster Dives). Came out great, and amazingly unbent in the standard envelope they sent them in!

I'll post them when I get a chance!

We were on the 9:45 snorkle tour with Patti. I went up and talked to the captain of the boat for a while as we were going out. We have been down diving on Grand Cayman several times but it had been awhile. Don Foster's is the only dive operation we have used. I was just checking to see if one dive master was still there. The old salty kind of character that you remember forever.

We weren't in the pics, we stayed away from the crowd. My oldest ended up early on the boat. I swear she was gonna get hurt. She would start jumping whenever one came close. The other one would almost chase them swimming after them. Go figure.

As far as the "stealing" the magnets goes, don't be too harsh on the door they ended up on. It may have been kids moving them around instead of someone actually taking them. I found one on the floor of the elevator room and put it on the closest door to it. It wasn't a home-made one, just a flounder's nursery one.

We were at the pirates movie at 12:01. We showed up late and ended up with 2nd row center. Someone was saving seats and the other party didn't show I guess. We were lucky.

I totally enjoyed meeting the people I found and sorry I missed the others. We had great seas, great weather (a little hot), great friends and a great crew.

Take Care all!

Did anyone get their postcards yet? Boy they are slow! I mailed from Orlando, Key West and Castaway Cay.

We did the 9:15 turtle, hell, stingray. I noticed a lot of people wearing vests. We didn't have them--wonder why? DS loved the rays. We missed out on precious beach time. I would have booked an earlier time and skipped the turtles and hell.

Did DD in the POURING rain. But had a great time.

Finished my Janet book.

Rebooked for 7/15/07. Hoping to talk dh into a back to back, but no luck so far.

DS made it through the entire POC. We were the nuts who showed up in pj's with a blanket.

On our stingray excursion, they said Disney required everyone to have a vest, but they left it up to us how to have them on our body (most just wore them, as that was easiest, but I think a lot didn't bother to inflate them).

Just got our 2 of our 3 castaway cay postcards on 7/31. It does take a few weeks.

Just got ours too!

We got ours the other day. We always write ourselves one that reads "we'll be back".

I don't remember even seeing vests. Did anybody have time to go to a beach in GC?
