Day 8 – Febuary 28 - Spring Miami-Cuba - 2019

When we woke up the ship was still in open waters and did not arrive at George Town, Grand Cayman until 10pm, right on time.

Grand Cayman does not have docking facilities for large ships so we anchored in the harbor and were tendered in.  There were a total of 6 cruise ships in the harbor.

What a mob at the dock as that was 20,000+ people all coming into one small port.

As we have been here many times, we really didn’t have any reason to go into the port; however, we did because of the glass that we made.  There was no easy way we could have taken it to our next cruise and then on the airplane in a week – it was just too big.

Our solution was to take it to the FedEx store and ship it.  That was a perfect idea except it cost us $112 to ship it.  But it’s done!!

We then walked around for a bit and then took the tender back to the ship.

By then it was time for lunch, change and sit outside in the sun which was beautiful.

The jewelry store was having a free cleaning service, so we had our rings cleaned and then walked around and listened to music before going to dinner.

We had seen the show before and were not interested in going to it again.

Dinner was really great – Barb had lamb and a lobster tail and Ed had beef wellington.  

We said good bye to our table mates as tomorrow we will be eating with the two couples who we met playing blackjack.


Then of course we went to the casino where Barb lost and Ed won.

Tomorrow is our last day of the cruise and it is a sea day.
