Escaping the often cold and snowy weather of the midwest, warmer climates continue to beckon to us during our retirement years. Traveling with friends makes it even more delightful. The winter of 2016 was one such adventure to the Grand Caymans! Enjoy some pictures of our week on Grand Cayman Island!
