August.
My mamma loves me because she makes me the most delicious smoothies. The one today has fresh raspberries handpicked from a farm somewhere by someone, strawberry ice cream, greek flavored yogurt and a large sprinkle of sugar. I cannot even comprehend how good it tastes when all these things come together. They create something so different to their own personal flavors, each contributing their tiny bit to make something out-of-this-world.
Grand Cayman delight. Nothing can compare. Midnight canoe rides in the magical green swirling waters, 50+ person bike rides to the points, secret bike rides on the dock at night with the creepy guard, getting lost in a book by the pool, watching gidget in the bed full of Popsicles and crumbs, floating in the bay on a rainbow floaty, the pina coladas at rum point, looking for sunset sea shells at stingray city, playing ratatat cat with Kelson, the train game, werewolf, under the sea sing-alongs, early morning dives to nintendo looking lands, the over-sized lemonheads after diving, Viva la vida on repeat, late-night accent changing parties, the thunder/rain storms with tin drums beating in the sky, treasure hunting on water bikes with pirates, real life bang! game, catching starfish in a sea of jellies, the hammocks, the sunsets, olympics opening ceremonies , white and pink sand, torturing hermit crabs with curly bums, free gum ball machine at the airport and the over sized grapes that should be plums. lovely
