Flashback Friday: Stingray City

Stingray City in Grand Cayman was absolutely incredible. Tom and I had the opportunity to stop here during a snorkeling excursion while cruising in January 2013. As the boat approached the sandbar I was able to see the stingrays in the beautiful, clear Caribbean water and I was immediately terrified. I must have looked ridiculous when I first got into the water. As curious as I was about the stingrays, and as excited as I was to snorkel, I didn’t know what to do. Fortunately, I am an animal lover and I was quickly able to overcome my fears. From that moment on, I enjoyed every second and every aspect of my experience.

If you ever find yourself in Grand Cayman, make time for Stingray City. I was really worried that it would be a forgettable, over-promoted tourist trap but it was one of the highlights of my 2012-2013 winter trip and to this day, I still find myself thinking of it.

Farewell Summer, Updates and Flashback Friday

Although the season does not officially end until sometime in September, it will soon be time to say farewell to summer and welcome fall – for some of us, myself included, that will be early next week. While I always hate to see summer come to an end, I am looking forward to beginning my last semester of my undergraduate degree. It is also a little nerve wrecking. Sure, it can be stressful at times, but university has also been quite comforting and I expect I will miss it.  However, summer is not over yet and I plan to thoroughly enjoy the ‘last’ weekend. Tom, Murray and I will be going to visit my family for a night or two. I am very excited. Keep in mind, two weeks ago, I thought I would be going up for a week-long visit. Be sure to check back next week for related pictures and a blog post!

I have added a direct link to my old blog (you’ll find it up in the top right hand corner). I hope you continue to enjoy those blog posts. Please excuse the delay in publishing new content to this new blog. I expect that as I transition into a new routine over the next week or so, blog activity will increase. Keep in mind – just because I have no published anything does not mean I am not working on things ‘behind the scenes.’ As always, if you have any suggestions or requests for future blog posts, I would love to hear from you!

Two weeks have passed since Tom and I got engaged and I still cannot believe it. I have posted a couple of pictures from the trip to both Instagram and Flickr. Be sure to check them out!
