Wednesday:  Georgetown, Grand Cayman.  This must be one of the more beautiful places on Earth.  The water here is crystal to see thru, which makes snorkeling an awesome experience.  The photos really do capture the color if the bright aqua water.  Swimming with the Stingray fish is quite a wonderful experience.  Or if the water sports are not your thing, then you can go to Hell.  Yes that's right, there's a place here called Hell.  There are unusual black rock formations here, very interesting.  Or you could visit one of the largest turtle farms. After a day full of fun, let's not stop there.  Head back to the ship for a great concert with Neal McCoy.

Sunday:  Heading Home.  Arrive back in Miami Florida.  That was the most wonderful trip I have ever taken.  I will remember it forever and I hope you enjoyed the photo version of our excitement and fun aboard the Norwegian Sun.  Thanks to Captain Sandy's for putting this cruise together for us and a special thanks to all the stars and their bands and families for making this so memorable.  If you ever get the chance to go on a Country Cruise, I recommend you do it.  I will never miss this again!!      Selina
