Day 4- Grand Cayman

Our fourth day on the cruise we docked in Grand Cayman. I had booked a trip to the turtle farm for the 3 of us.

They raise hundreds of sea turtles at the farm

getting some good use of the new sun hat

meeting the first turtle...4 months old

Cohen REALLY wanted to pet the turtle...but his petting isn't too gentle so we were very careful with him

here are the babies swimming

Cohen and daddy checking out the babies

and now an 8 month old one

the heat was rough...the first time Cohen had ever been this hot so we made sure to keep pumping him full of liquids

and here are the 18 month old ones...this is when they release them into the wild

this guy was pretty heavy

but Cohen wanted to touch him too

then it was time for his first trip into a pool...

he LOVED it! The splashing was crazy!

then Cohen and I got some swim time

This is one of our favorite things he does...when he is excited he sticks both fists way in the air...Sam was pretty proud to catch this one on camera!

They had a shark lagoon and a snorkeling area as well

Sam with his Caybrew

the breeze blowing his little hairs

Sam and Cohen hanging in the shade...their favorite place to be

view of the snorkeling area

more palms for Bri

and one more

the ocean blues are so amazing and I loved this white bird on the gray rocks

then the bird took off

when Cohen woke up he was really hungry

then it was time to head back to the ship

a bath and a new outfit and we are off for a walk around the deck

Cohen is showing off his Easter gift from grandma and grandpa Russell...go Sox!

he hung out with us while we got some sushi

I found this amusing...I looked over the balcony of where we were eating to the set time dining area (which was on its early dinner time) and this would be the average age of everyone else eating at the same time we were.
