Grand Cayman

December, 2008

We left December 5th to Grand Cayman to have some fun. We snorkeled in the beautiful

waters of the Carribbean, fed squid to stingrays, and enjoyed our condo on the famous

Seven Mile Beach. These first two pictures are of George Town and where all the cruise

ships come. Lots of jewelry stores and banks.

We took a half day city tour that took us to Turtle Bay where they raise turtles and eventually

release them into the ocean. We also went to Hell and the Tortuga Rum Cake store. Lots of tasting of the different kinds of rum cake!

That's Hell behind us--Volcanic rock formations


Seven Mile Beach just outside our condo.

Lake Tahoe and Yosemite

Lake Tahoe and Yosemite, October 2008

First time the Miata saw snow!

Gary and I had our first official retirement trip together. We drove to Lake Tahoe and Yosemite in the Miata the week of October 11th. Upon going to bed on the 10th, we heard on the news it was snowing in Tahoe. We quickly added some warmer clothes and jackets and left the next morning. We kept the top up on the car--too cold all the way. We stopped in Bishop the first night and saw snow in the mountains.

We arrived at Lake Tahoe on Sunday afternoon and checked into our time share at the Mariott.

Can you see the buck? There is a family of four.
