Trip Report-Day 4 12/2/08-Grand Cayman....NOT
Awoke this morning to the Captains voice telling us something we had heard from a friend of ours that works on the ship the night before. Due to high winds the Grand Cayman port authority had closed the harbor and no ships would be allowed to dock due to the high winds. So we sailed by the isalnd and continued on to Mexico for a day at sea. We really weren't heartbroken as we never get of the ship in Grand Cayman anymore anyways due to having to tender. Spent the day reading and enjoying the beauty of the Disney Magic. The show in the theatre that night was a showing of Bolt which I greatly enjoyed and then it was time for dinner and of course it was Pirates in the Caribbean night. After a steady downpour they finally shot the fireworks off and we viewed them from our usual uncrowded spot, The hot tub at the Quiet Cove Pool. Following that it was time to go shopping and I bought all my gifts for everyone and picked up the purchase with purchase rolling duffel bag since I was going to need more luggage to carry off all the things I bought..=) Went to bed looking forward to Cozumel and our tour of the Tulum Ruins. We were also told that the ship was going to stay in Cozumel until 1am so we would have lots of time to shop after our excursion as well.

Sorry to hear you missed Grand Cayman. We went on one of the double dips on last week of October 2008, aboard the Disney Magic and had to turn back from Grand Cayman due to high winds and high seas (14-16'+). We ended up heading to Key West and had a decent time but many people were disappointed about missing Grand Cayman. It has been about 4 years since we were there last and we really had our hopes set upon seeing the new turtle farm.
