From wcvb.com The Boston Channel
Need some color in your life? How does white sand, turquoise water and blue iguanas sound? Tonight, Shayna Seymour jets off to the Cayman Islands, strolling Seven Mile Beach, swimming with Southern Atlantic stingrays in the North Sound, and chillaxing among the flora and fauna at Rum Point. Then, for an added bonus, she gets to go to Hell … and lives to tell the tale.
