Shipwreck & Fish Feeding Tour in Grand Cayman

This post is part of a series about our cruise aboard Holland America's ms Noordam.


Are you looking for a fun family excursion in Grand Cayman?  If you're visiting for a while, or stopping by for an afternoon on a cruise ship, check out Cayman Islands Submarines.  The Grandparents and kiddos had a marvelous time on this Shipwreck & Fish Feeding Tour.  Even Dominic got the opportunity to check out the fish up close and personal.  (And he can't swim or wear a scuba mask!)


This super cool semi-submarine does not fully submerge, although the company does offer some fully submerged excursions.  A submerged effect is achieved because the (air-conditioned) hull is five feet below the surface level.  The Grandparents and kids saw tons of marine life and a shipwreck.  Catherine excitedly told me all about the scuba diver who fed the fish -- bringing hundreds of fish right to their window.  This is a particularly great excursion for multi-generational families traveling together, because age doesn't matter.

The grandparents found this particular excursion on their own, however, if you're the type that likes to book through the ship this company does partner with many cruise lines, including Holland America.  (Here is one of Holland America's excursions aboard a Cayman Islands Submarine.)


Please note: I personally did not go on this excursion, I was busy scuba diving for the first time!  This is not a sponsored post (I was not compensated in any way in exchange for this post) the family simply enjoyed the trip so much that I just had to share!

What Would You Do With These Beads?

Hello, Dear Reader!  I apologize for being a little MIA lately.  My little family has moved!  We are just about all settled in now, so blogging will once again begin!

I do have a question for you, what would you do with these beads?  They are super duper cool, but my recent lack of crafting has left me a little uninspired.  

Celadon Green Glass Tube Beads
I saw these earrings on Pinterest, and while they are very cute I was wondering if there was something more that I could do.  Help me out, please, Readers!
