Diving & Climbing on the Brac
Today was a full day. We checked in at the dive shop early in the morning and saw that the wind had abated some during the night so the seas were not as rough. Nick, Emily & myself went out on the dive boat to two dives just off the north shore of the island. Deb went solo and found some interesting snorkeling places also on the north side of the island. The corals and reefs are impressive with abundant sea life. It was a little spooky to dive again after two years of not having been out. It is still amazing to me to be 80 feet down in the ocean breathing air and swimming around. The diving in the Cayman Islands is so good! After lunch we hiked over to the Wave Wall on the east end of the island to traverse a tricky wave splashed ledge to get to some cool climbs. Deb was very intimidated by the hike out there, but soon got used to the different kind of exposure these climbs had to offer. Pounding waves on a rocky surf just below your feet on a slanted slab. Nick & Emily joined us for a few minutes and Nick jumped on one of the climbs before they worked their way back. Yesterday we snorkeled in the morning and climbed in the afternoon and then we watched the Super Bowl on a big screen TV at an open air restaurant with about 10 other people. These vacation days go by so fast. Tomorrow will be more of the same. Cool.
