C'est beau!















It's time for another list of what I learned on my vacation. This time, Little Cayman. British West Indies. (I love saying that.)




1. Sea cucumbers inspire one to invent the word "blobinous".

2. Boyfriend knows much about Avon's Skin So Soft. Perhaps too much.

3. I'm not sure how much I trust Dutch Peter, the maverick Dive Master.

4. Never defy Gladys. She'll hit you with a brochure.

5. Pink fish heralds the coming of the octopi.

6. Beware falling lizards.

7. Flip flops and lava rock don't mix.

8. Hermit crabs climb trees.

9. Two ladders tied together does not a lighthouse make.

10. When snorkeling above a shark, don't stop to think about how alone you are or how the boat is nowhere nearby.

11. Ubercrab owns the pier.

12. Driving on the left side of the road is fairly easy when the road circles the whole island and has no stop signs. Turning, however, is a bitch.

13. Oh boys, news flash. Drinking Baileys straight does not make it any more manly.

14. When the conch is booking it, make sure there are witnesses.

15. Burgess Meredith dwelt amongst the boobies and frigates.

And I suppose you now have a really good tan in December. Jealous? Not me (he lies). Sounds like you guys had a great time.

It sounds like you had a really wonderful time or that you were in a David Lynch film. Either way, it was warm, no? We're jealous. Insanely jealous. Oh, and we hope you got some relaxation in!
