    First day at sea on this BIG Boat - I'm a Marine - we don't give a hoot what you call it, as long as it floats!

    I'm the only one kilted on the Celebrity cruise ship Infinity, and it seems like everyone who even slightly has any Scottish connection has felt the need to come up and talk. A lot of people think that they are experts..... assistand tartan police

    The food last night was superb! Grand Cayman tomorrow!

    Grand Cayman

    James, depending on your preference, if you're not into the tourist shops, etc, see if you can get up to Rum Point, it's on the north side of the island, maybe a thirty minute ride, but one of the most relaxing places on the face of the planet, nice little restaurant and bar, beach with hammocks and shade trees, all right on the water, and like anywhere in the Caymans, crystal clear water at that. Hope you enjoy Cayman and the rest of your cruise!
