The Coral Princess had a few neighbors in George Town, Grand Cayman. There were six ships in port on the day we were there. We didn’t dock in George Town; we were tendered ashore. The streets of George Town were packed with fellow cruisers. We didn’t know it at the time, but a couple of our neighbors were in George Town at the very same time we were. They were aboard Carnival’s Paradise, the ship that carried us on our first seven-day cruise.

We bought Becky’s dad a T-shirt from the Harley Davidson store in this little mall. There were a bunch of other suckers lined up to similarly overpriced souvenirs bearing the HD logo.

Here’s Becky with Mark Cordes. Mark was one of the comedians aboard our ship and he performed the night before we docked in George Town. He was really funny. One of the jokes he told went something like this: “Cops are pessimistic by nature, or at least the one who stopped me was. He preferred to see the bottle as being half empty. I saw it as half full.”

Here she is waiting to get rid of her current crew and to take on a new bunch. Notice black patches. Those are non-skid areas. According the guide on our sub, Atlantis paid over a million bucks for this tiny vessel.

The highlight of our visit to George Town was a submarine ride to the Cayman Wall. Here’s a shot of our submarine rising to the surface.
