Grand Cayman 2014 Jan 17-25, 2014

Our second year attending the Cayman Cookout, the sixth year of the event itself. We paced ourselves a bit better this year, having learned some (but not much) from last year. Followed by nicer weather that allowed five days of diving (for Dave) and golf (for Max).
