Grand Cayman

This place has always fascinated me because books and movies always have people hiding their money here to avoid taxation. We watched us pull alongside a pier to dock and ahead of us was a huge container ship.

We took a tour with a hilarious bus driver educating us along the way. First stop was the 7 Fathoms Rum Distillery. They use
desalinated water to make the rum and then store their barrels in 7 fathoms underwater for  2 years using the sea movement to age. Very delicious.

Next was the Tortuga ( turtle) Rum Cake Factory. Again - delicious.

They had different anchors and artifacts from shipwrecks so prominent long ago.

As we were driving to the  Cayman Beer Factory we heard a very loud bang. It soon became apparent that we had a very flat tie.
 The driver hopped out, had a look and said, No problem, we've got 2 tires back there so I'll get it fixed while you are tasting beer.
 The beer is only used locally, made with desalinated water and tasted fine.

Very interesting seeing all the beaches and beautiful blue seas.
