Clearly I've been away from this blog for almost a year.  Understandable given I'm a MOM now, to the cutest six month old there ever was.  So, now you know why I've been away. Having a baby in the Cayman Islands...boy that's a blog by itself.   Speaking of which, check out my new MOMMY blog. http://deromanticisingmotherhood.blogspot.com/

This is fast becoming my favourite beach to hang out at. And you can see why - there's not a soul! In fact very few people visit this beach up in Boddentown, and I like it. Not only is it quiet, there's PLENTY of coconut trees to provide you with ample shade, and this is the rock formation creates a perfect large spot to snorkel, if you're a beginner. This is Beach Bay - and I love it.

As promised, here is a visual on the purple mangoes. I was so tempted to walk up to the house and ask if I could pick one.

Everyone's got mango fever here in Cayman and rightly so. If you've lived in a tropical land, you know the hot summer is the time for mangoes. And there's so many of them. Perhaps it is that this year has been unusually hot, which is not giving rise to a good Hurricane season forecast, but hey, at least we've got a good crop of mangoes going around. I've even seen purple mangoes and am going

Why is it that every time I go out snorkeling, it inadvertently turns cloudy. Is someone trying to tell me something? No matter. Here are some shots I managed to get during my first snorkel at Smith's Cove. I can't believe it took me THIS long to snorkel at this spot. I will definitely be going back there next weekend, hoping for a cloudless sky! Oh, did I mention that there was a mega size cloud

We were in Havana, Cuba this past weekend, such is the advantage of living in Cayman - quick weekend getaway trips, with direct flights to boot. Havana is historically beautiful, albeit rundown in certain areas, more like every other building yet they all still manage to exude charm that is hard to ignore or go unappreciated.Being in Havana, makes me so thankful that I have never had to abide by

The 21st Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada has come to an end and even though Caymanian Dow Travers didn't win a medal, I am sure it was a proud moment to have him be a part of the Winter Olympics. So, I reckon no one questioned whether he is born Caymanian or paper Caymanian for this event. I certianly didn't hear any rumblings of any sort. I guess a fuss wasn't made, unlike during last

When I was about 10, we took a weekend trip to a fabulously deliciously cool place a few hours away from Bombay. This was Nasik, and it was here by the beach that I found a beautiful shell, about half the size of my thumb. I pocketed it and after a day or so, took it out to inspect it. It looked like there was something peeking out of it, so being 10, I yanked it out. What I did find startled

This is what happens when you throw a chunk of bread into the ocean.Word spreads and big ones the length of your arm, begin to surround you, hoping you'll throw out more chunks.But you're all out. And then you start to panic. This would be a good time to make your exit. Which is EXACTLY what I did!Am I being a tad dramatic? Maybe? I just don't like being circled by more than one big fish,

Someone went through a whole lot of trouble to creatively fashion this beautiful gigantic turtle out of sand somewhere on the Seven Mile Beach stretch. I felt it should not go unnoticed.

There's nothing like a few tremors to bring out the terror in people. That being said, we were fortunate that we were nowhere near the 5.8 earthquake on Tuesday or nowhere close to suffering the wrath that took over Haiti. Other than this big gaping hole left in South Sound, there was no other reported damage here on Grand Cayman. I got this picture from Ms. Stop Your Noise, my former Bermuda

Anyone?Update:FROM RADIO CAYMANCayman Hit by 5.8 Magnitude Earthquake19/01/2010At 9.23 am the USGS reported a moderate earthquake of magnitude 5.8 occurred 32 miles ESE of Bodden Town, 40 miles ESE of George Town, 45 ESE of West Bay.The earthquake occurred at a depth of 6.2 miles.There have been no reports of damage or injuries received by 911.

Because I have never seen a pelican up close, especially not at such close proximity, and because just looking at the thumbnail of the second picture makes you want to enlarge it just so you can figure exactly what that pelican is doing.......which is attempting to scratch its head or something close to it.

Here's a Bermuda street sign. Many of them are like this, 'conveniently' placed at the bottom of a wall. It would make sense to place a sign high above the average height of a person, so, given that, how on earth is one supposed to spot this????

How do you avoid being laid off from the work force? "Work hard, come in early and stay late." This is what Bermuda's Royal Gazette has been preaching. The harder you work, the less likely you are going to laid off. Layoffs are now a thing of the present and neither Cayman nor Bermuda has been a stranger to this situation. I've heard of many being laid off here in Cayman and companies are

Living on an island means the perputal presence of sand in your car, at all and any time of the year. It also means never having to clean it out...completely. Because you never will.

Pirate's Week is almost here, and before you know Christmas will be soon to follow in what will herald another New Year. Bet you're asking yourself this: WHERE HAS 2009 gone to? To the dogs, I say! What say you?

This place! Oh this place! You'd think by now I'd be used to the way a small island operates, especially since Bermuda + Cayman now makes it coming up to five years. But no, putting your foot in your mouth is easier to do here than in any other country. You can't even say, Oh don't I know you from somewhere? because that would mean you may have met that person at a different time in their

I am sure I killed a lot of trees today. It was NOT a good day. Lots to print/photocopy at work, and considering not many places recycle here in Cayman, I cringe every time I hit print. Considering how much more sophisticated Cayman is compared to oh say Bermuda, I wish it housed a proper recycling facility. Paper, glass, aluminium - you can bet there will be a lot less ending up at the dump.

Sounded like one's money was scheduled for laundry day or something. Back then there were so many words that didn't quite make sense, but all that's changed now.

Here in Cayman, there are so many occurrences that one may hear about through the grapevine, and then only to be surprised when it doesn't make print. You would think journalists would be doing their damnedest to scour material hoping that would make the daily cut, but you're left scratching your head when you can't find what you're looking for in the newspaper or even online.

A Cayman facts and figures article of various things starts of with...'At the end of 2008 there were 2171 goats in the Cayman Islands'. Goats? Really? The article's only picture was of a goat. I think that's cute! If that doesn't make you laugh, it should at least make you smile. I wonder what the end of 2009 will do for the goat population.

The government has overspent, but that's what governments everywhere do. So in an order to 'replenish' some of this cash, it has been recommended that a slew of taxes be put in place. If they were to implement income tax, let me tell you, we'd be gone...like the wind. Cayman, while not as expensive as Bermuda, is expensive in its own right, something like income taxes that would most

A couple of my friends have given birth to the cutest baby girls in the last couple of months at the private hospital here in Cayman.

Young whites must admit role of slavery, segregation in our history – Farrakhan.This is the problem with some in Bermuda. They like to hold on to the slavery card when all they need to do is let is go.

Cayman's version of the Caribana which is called Batabano. Now it's not as good as Toronto's Caribana, as many of you can attest, but it'll do...Maybe next year's will be better.

I am so pleased to share with you a first time find for me.Taken (by me) over a month ago at Cemetary Beach in West bay - a juvenile FRENCH ANGELFISH. Gorgeous, innit? They look quite different all grown up. Since they're also cleaner fish, they tend to take on 'clients'.These fish are also monogamous. Ha! Who knew!

I am about to get very busy for the next couple of weeks, so to remedy my posts that would normally be few and far inbetween, I am going to share some island appropriate visuals. Are your eyes ready for this? Here goes...Just this alone is enough to take me to that happy place. Seriously, who can't use a happy face?

I love dogs and it is for this reason that I hate seeing stray dogs out and about, left to fend for themselves. Cayman has plenty of them. Some have collars. Now I'm not sure if many of these have been 'adopted' by the many dog lovers out there, or if dog owners just let their pooches roam free. I have also seen dogs chase after their owners as they drive off to work or running errands,

There has been a little bit of a debate going on and around about speaking English while in Cayman. There are so many foreign nationals here that you're bound to hear a myriad of dialects when you're out and about. With one thing I do agree, English MUST be spoken at the work place and there is no room for other languages, especially when dealing with customers. But anywhere else, is fair game

It's that time again. Summer heat is here. And so the comparisons begin from my folks in Dubai & Bombay thinking that they're the only ones suffering the from the heat and that it's just exclusive to them. Just so y'all know, Cayman is just as hot as Dubai & Bombay. How do I know this? Check out the weather map on the left.

This happens every year. Just like the cold white north prepares for the winter season conducive to snow storms, we here in the Caribbean prepare ourselves for hurricane season. Some say to me, 'Oh you guys must be pros by now, having lived in Bermuda for three years and now in Cayman'. But that's just it, you can't ever get 'used' to a hurricane. You can't ever be a 'pro', well, unless

It's always a little bit of a lifestyle change when you move from a big city to a smaller island. Many fail to understand the reason behind the little habits that we have accumulated and exhibit over the years from our big city life. Until shit hits the fan...or so to speak.Like...locking your car doors while driving around. Car jacking is all too common in big cities and locking your car

I must have watched Finding Nemo at least 50 times. Don't be shocked. It was a long time ago and yes, even though I was that much older, what can I say, it was a very well done animated film. And when you think of Nemo, you inevitably think of his home and recall how difficult it was for him to pronounce it - anemenemone!Which is why it thrilled me to no end to spot this during our snorkel at

Celebrating something in Cayman? Light up the fireworks. On any given weekend one is guaranteed to see fireworks somewhere on the island. Cayman loves its fireworks and will set them off for whatever reason that may be. This is the only place where you'll be driving around town and can and will pull up for some impromtu fireworks show. Every weekend. Don't believe me? Start looking...

If I stay at work late enough I have the delightful company of one of my co-worker's daughter (aged four), who comes in at the end of the day for 15 minutes or so. She'll make a straight bee line for my desk, just because she knows that's where she has to go if she wants her own personal visual tour of the underwater creatures. 'I wanna see fish', was her statement today. She had previously

...So, what do you do?It's a very common opening starter of a question that expats are often asked here in Cayman. For some this may feel like the norm, for others not so much. A couple of weeks ago I overheard a couple of women talking about how this is such a norm of a question for North Americans to ask, while noting that in France, for example people just don't ask questions like

Two? I think someone at The Weather Network over in Canada mistakenly ate a digit off Cayman's weather last night. It's probably never been 2 deg C in Cayman, EVER! Maybe they're wishing it was, so they'd feel better about themselves at six. Envious, much?

I've posted about the Barracuda before, while in Bermuda, but I had none of my snorkel visuals to back it up. Not this time! Here's a lone ranger, venturing out into our neck of the ocean, until my friend chased him away. Well in his defence, he was trying to motion it closer to us. I actually didn't mind that the barracuda swam away as fast as it did, as I only wanted him around long enough

Hubby & I went snorkelling today at Cemetary Beach. While snorkelling I was surrounded by fish that are clearly used to people hovering over them. I'm not sure if they were looking for food which I once again forgot to bring with me to the beach. Of course I snapped away with my underwater camera, which I am loving more everyday. As I was going through today's pictures, I came across this GEM

While the Stingrays were moving in and around us at the sandbar in Stingray City, I also spotted a CowFish, with my snorkel gear. Oh, a good tip: Take your snorkel mask with you while at Stingray City to get an awesome underwater vantage of how these ray glide. You'll never know what else you'll spot lurking closeby, like this Cowfish. I still had to some chasing to get a closer shot. But

For the longest time I have wanted to spot this on my own, and have been so envious when other fellow islanders have told me they spotted it on any given day. Well, wouldn't you know it, I did spot it but had no clue as to WHAT it was. First of all I barely saw it, so well camaflauged it was in the seaweed. When I did spot it lurking, it along with its friend seemed very wary of my presence,

I am re-posting this today, even though I originally posted the video on Friday, April 10th. I wanted to elaborate and include pictures along with the video, but I was half asleep when the lone video went live, that I didn't trust myself to even type out a longer description for the post.

A few Sundays ago we were greeted with thousands of white butterflies and I cannot tell you how beautiful it was. They were everywhere, like little snowflakes fluttering away in the wind. Unfortunately they also encountered one too many cars on the road and quite a few lost their lives for it.

We found an awesome spot to snorkel on the island on Saturday and I went nuts with the camera. Needless to say I am so very pleased with the way these shots came out.

I was half asleep when I wrote the last post and it seems that this is a continuing trend. I looked outside today and notice that there was not a cloud in the sky, not to mention the sunshine was blinding, the heat that could become unbearable if stayed out too long. Hot summer days are here and that also means it will lead to one thing - Hurricane season. I hope we have no surprises in store

I have been away...away last week to a cold land.The moment we landed in good old Toronto, I wanted to head back to the heat in Cayman, especially since I have been away from the cold for more than a year. There's other things I have been away from too... like the first day I took the car out for a drive. My mantra for the first half hour was STAY ON THE RIGHT, STAY ON THE RIGHT,

Somewhere along the way to West Bay, Grand Cayman is a beautiful spot to stop and take stock of what gorgeous views this island has to offer. And you know I'm not one to not stop and smell the roses.

March!Still cold in Toronto.Probably still damp in Bermuda.But HOT HOT HOT in Cayman. It seriously does not get any better than this.After such a relaxing day at Rum Point (our first visit - pics coming soon), I've got nothing to complain about.For now, I have some gorgeous shots of Seven Mile Beach.

HOLY! Ok I knew there were snakes in Cayman, having witnessed one such a snake earlier this year wiggling its way not too far from our door. It was later killed, but NOT by me. I draw the line at snakes! Bermuda has NO snakes, none whatsoever. My Bermuda folks can say this with relief in their voices.

When it comes to chickens, Cayman is very much like Bermuda, in the sense that dem chickens run around free like no body's business. I'm used to it by now, but I can't ever get used to the American tourists when they voice their delight in their southern twang: OH look y'all, they've got chickens running around free.When it comes to KFC, Bermuda's got nothing on Cayman.

I remember my Cayman landing like it was yesterday, and sheesh not only was it exhausting, it was daunting, because I moved here alone, while Hubby was wrapping up things in Bermuda. And while here during those first initial months, I would not have made it without my good friends, local & expat...so, THANK

While maneuvering around the Cayman Immigration website I stumbled upon these little gem of a couple of pies. Often I am asked what the make up of the expat population is here in Cayman and lo and behold, I can now provide you with visuals. I customised the pie charts a little and while they are from March 2008, it is going to be so very interesting to see what the March 2009 updated version is

Not even in Bermuda did the newspapers use local lingo that made up a news article headline (unelss it was in quote). But Cayman did. Take a look here at one such article, where such is the evidence of how local lingo makes the headline. 'Soon Come'! Only in Cayman!I think it's endearing.

Have you noticed the men have been acting little crazed the past day or so, a little out of the ordinary, just not like their normal selves. Why are they going all bonkers at work? They're not going bonkers at the women, they daren't do that. They're going bonkers at each other. Like a pack of werewolves, howling and barking. It always takes one a moment to stop and ask...Is it a full moon?

My former Bermuda landlady, Ms Stop Your Noise, emailed me today asking me how the weather was down here. Has it been cold? Is it damp like Bermuda? Does it get humid like Bermuda during the summer?I was pleased to tell her that although we had a couple of days of a cold spell, Cayman was back on track with the hot weather. And thank Goodness! People here in Cayman are often surprised when

I love how my Caribbean co-workers put their Caribbean spin on things. Like this morning my Brit-Jamaican co-worker was trying to recall that recent movie that Ben Stiller, Robert Downy Jr and Tom Cruise were in, and in a moment of epiphany called it TROPICAL THUNDER. Didn’t stop him from still calling it that, in spite of me giving him the correct name.Blunders like these would have been very

You know that cold front that's been hitting Florida the past few days. Yeah, well it's also managed to hit us here in Cayman as well. So it's been UNUSUALLY cold the past three days. Now when I say cold I mean cold Cayman style. Perhaps COOL would be the right word to use. Anyway, most Caymanians tend to enjoy a cooler spot of weather here and there but when it gets anywhere below 23 deg Celsius

It is often difficult to stay away from saying things that are stereotypical. Or thinking it, for that matter. Especially when it comes to a particular race. Growing up in Dubai, I'd often hear my parents talk about workplace politics that involved a particular race (let's call them Race X from now on) and try as they might to avoid it, the inevitable common thread always revealed itself.

Seems like everyone got this viral flu/cold/cough that's been going around. And I mean EVERYONE! Family & friends in Canada & the Middle East seem to be sick just as much as friends and co-workers here in Cayman. How do I know this? Well, there's Facebook that lets you know the intricate minute little details of one's health status, it's easy not to keep track of how every one's

Living on a small island you are bound to come across people who may know people you know, especially with those networking sites out where information flows like it's a free for all. It is only natural that once you find out the connections between your friends or acquaintances that you'd want to mention of this fact, but beware because on such a small island, this can run interference.

A long weekend is loved and welcomed by many. Who doesn't love a long weekend, right? It also brings on a shorter work week. Here in Cayman it seems like we have quite a few and when you add it all up, Cayman has an extra statutory (public) holiday than Bermuda and Canada does. The downside is that from the months of August to October, Cayman does not have a long weekend scheduled in at all.

You're in Bermuda living around the corner from the hospital and find yourself requiring emergency medical attention, only the ambulance doesn't arrive until much later. Until it's too late. Apparently the emergency dispatch service is not upto par with standards that it should be at, considering just how much of an affluent island Bermuda is. Frankly, this does not surprise me because one can

One of my FaceBook contact's status read as follows: "...is glad that today marks the end of an error." Cleverly said.And I have rightly stolen today's post's title from one of my favourite blogs to read about a precocious four year old boy with PDD-NOS and his adorable sister.

While people back home in Toronto and various sub freezing parts of the US were ringing in the New Year with -20 deg Celsius temperatures, braving the cold waiting for the ball to drop, New Years' here in Cayman was celebrated 'island style' – of course. Sure there were plenty of parties to be had but our first New Years' was celebrated at the beach, with champagne & fireworks. And that is New

The Cayman Islands Postal Service is urging residents to give out and use the right postal code for the right PO Boxes that they have been assigned. Unlike Bermuda, mail here is NOT delivered to one's house, rather to PO Boxes. And since there are quite a few different locations with possible the same numbered PO Boxes, using the right postal code is key. Using the incorrect code will only

A miniature Cayman coconut, that fell off the tree much sooner than it should have, that also reminds me of my childhood. There'd be umpteen amounts of these in our backyard in Bombay. Our neighbours had rows of coconut trees in their backyard which unrestricted, also faced ours. Next time you come across one, pick it up and peel off those layers. You'll feel the smoothest surface you've felt

Christmas celebrations in the Middle East can vary depending on where in the mid east you are. Some are, believe it or not, a little liberal than most. Saudi Arabia for instance, does not tolerate any other religions. My uncle, TigerBeer often watches Christian services on TV and will on seperate occasions also sneak in some liquor to celebrate the holidays or just any weekend. Alchohol is

The Christmas season is not over yet, not until the 6th anyway, and until then I intend on posting more of my first Caymanian Christmas. We all know the Christmases of now but at times I wonder how was Christmas celebrated yesteryear, way before my time. At the Crighton House Annual Christmas Display, I got a glimpse of how Christmas was celebrated in the old days here in Cayman. This was

You know you're Caymanian when upon meeting someone the next thing out of your mouth is WHO YA DADDY IS? Not to be mistaken with, WHO'S YOUR DADDY? Which might be more of a common question to ask the ladies in Bermuda. I'm just sayin!

A little something I've been wanting to dabble in for as long as I can remember but kept putting off and then realising I wasn't getting younger and that there was no reason to wait any longer. A little something that is now one of my prized possessions and something I can easily get lost into. A little something that only gets
