Today our destination is Grand Cayman. We take a sail boat to the stingray city. Stingray city is a sandbar where there are multiple sting rays that are accustomed to humans and they let you feed them, touch them, lift them and even kiss them. According to local legend, kissing a sting ray brings 7 years of good luck. If you are in grade school it gets you 7 years of good grades!

It is very bizarre experience, the sand bar is in the middle of the sea you are miles from shore but you are standing in water that is about waist deep and dozens of string rays around you.

After sting ray city we snorkel and we see a lot of beautiful corals in crystal clear waters. While we are snorkeling we see a large sting ray swimming around us. It is a very beautiful experience.

We wind up our day with lots of duty free alcohol shopping and by purchasing stamps at the Grand Cayman post office.
