The Cayman Islands

 

Hi guys,

For christmas vacation  my family went to the Cayman Islands. This was an amazing trip. There was so much to do. One day when we were there my family and one other family  went on a boat. The boat took us all around the island and  took us to the best spots. The first stop we made was to stingray city. As you could tell from the name stingray city this is a place where there are a lot of stingrays. Stingray city is on a sandbar which is only around three feet deep so you could stand.  At first it is terrifying to get in, but at the end it was very cool.  The stingrays can only sting when they are in the sand. If you step on one of their stingers and they are in the sand there is a  possibility you could get stung, but when they are swimming they can’t sting.  Some of the stingrays have names. One is named Snowflake, another is Frisbee, and one is Stumpy. One other place we went to was called starfish point. At this place there are many starfish in the water. There were so many starfish in the water and you could see them well because the water was clear. Both these places were very cool. And if you ever go to the Cayman Islands you should definitely go to these places.

This is one of the stingrays

  1. Isabel,
    I love that you decided to post about your vacation because I remember how excited you were to go and it is nice to see the ending result of it. I’m so happy to see that you enjoyed yourself and had so much fun. My favorite part was when you started to talk about the sting rays. I love how even though you were afraid, you overcame your fears and decided to get in the water anyway. You are a brave girl and you ended up having a blast. You were able to learn so much about the sting rays. Thank you for sharing. Your thoughts are well written out, you kept it organized and gave plenty of details. I look forward to reading more of your posts, great work!

    Much love,
    Ms. Vega
