I know it has been a while since I posted anything about our adventures!  We have been on-island for 2 months now! I cannot believe how fast the time has flown! We have been having a great time this past month.  Pirates week was in mid-November, and that was so much fun!!!  What a party the Caymans can put on! Pirates, rum, music, dancing, fireworks, food, what more could you possibly want!? We also had some friends, Ray, Grace, and family come visit! They were here on a Disney cruise and we had the opportunity of showing them around the island.  We had such a great time!!!

After Pirate's week was over, we went right into the holiday season, and Caleb's birthday.  This was our first Thanksgiving outside of the US, and Caleb's first birthday out of the US.  We missed everyone terribly, but I did manage to make a small "feast" for Caleb and I.  All in all we had a lovely Thanksgiving, and we got to spend some time on the weekend with some of Caleb's co-workers to celebrate his birthday!

I have had the condo decorated for Christmas since about the 2nd week in November, but the rest of the island has finally caught up to me!  Lights and other Christmas decorations are everywhere!  I so love this time of year!  We went to the tree lighting at Camana Bay, which was just wonderful, a great way to start out the Christmas season!

Caleb and I continue to enjoy the local food and culture.  During Pirate's week we actually got to taste turtle stew!  It was surprisingly good!  This week we had the opportunity to go to "Gimistory", which is put on by the Cayman Cultural society.  It is a time of storytelling by people all over the Caribbean!  It was a great time!  There was also a fish fry, which was of course, delicious!

The weather has been wonderful.  A bit cooler than what it was in October, and not so rainy!  Perfect weather actually!  It gets cool enough in the evening to wear sweatshirts and jeans, which I love!

We are still loving the island, and are looking forward to more Holiday fun.  The parade of lights is Saturday, and Caleb's company is having their annual Christmas party next weekend!  So much to look forward to!
