Cayman is grand

We went to Grand Cayman last Wednesday through Sunday. It was a wonderful break! We were there with my parents and without Luke. (Luke had a fabulous time with his other grandparents and uncles and seemed to hardly miss us). The Ritz-Carlton was fabulous, the weather was great, and it was so nice to do very little for a few days. As a bonus, I was finally feeling better! I easily gained back the weight lost in the first trimester--the food was awesome!

The view from our hotel room--gorgeous! This was on a cloudy, misty day (our first day). The rest of the days were very sunny. I thought the cloudy picture was kind of cool, though (and I don't have a sunny one of the view--oops!)



We took a sailing cruise, swam with the stingrays, and went snorkeling, but those pictures are on my parents' camera. I will try to get those to post later. Mostly, we stayed at our resort, sat by the beach or the pool, and read a lot! We had cute little bento boxes for poolside lunches. I had a pregnancy massage at the AMAZING Silver Rain spa. We were there for the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry meeting, so we had nice evening receptions to attend. I made great efforts to always have on sunscreen, and I sat under the cabana chairs ALWAYS. . .but I still got a little sun. I always try to avoid tanning. . .but maybe it makes me look a little summery!
