The best part of our cruise was visiting Grand Cayman
By Tina and Mal
Tina and Mal went on a cruise recently and visited Mohogany Bay in Roatan, Honduras, The Crystal Cave in Belize and the Mayan Ruins of Tulum in Cozumel, Mexico.
On the last day of our cruise, we ported in Grand Cayman, which was easily my favourite place we visited. It was absolutely beautiful and there are THREE different CrossFit boxes on the tiny island! (It’s just 22 miles long with its widest point being 8 miles long.) Mal and I heard great things about CrossFit 7 Mile, so we visited for a class.
CrossFit 7 Mile was just a quick 5-10 minute drive from the port. Mal and I hopped on a public bus, which brought us right to the front door. (FYI: Grand Cayman has a great public bus/van system. It’s just $2.50 per person per ride and the bus/van comes every 5 minutes or so, and you just tell the driver where you want to get off.)
CrossFit 7 Mile reminded me a lot of our home box. Everyone was really friendly, laid-back and there to work hard, but also have a good time. The coach made us feel welcomed by showing us around and helping us get set up for the WOD. She also made sure Mal and I knew everyone before she started the class, which I liked a lot.
Eventually, we got hungry for lunch, so we grabbed food and a beer at a nearby restaurant.
After our day in Grand Cayman, we returned to the ship, showered up, and prettied ourselves for the final Formal Night of the cruise.
