Cruise Vacation Day 4 ~ George Town, Grand Cayman

Day 4 was spent in Grand Cayman and it just happened to be Anna Lauren's "special" day...it was her 5th birthday!


I still wanted her birthday to be "special" even though we were not at home...so I packed the traditional birthday things...a birthday banner, balloons, candles, birthday hat, and of course, presents!  She woke up to birthday balloons and presents!
 

This 5 year old was all smiles...


Opening her new swimsuit from Pop Pop and MeMe...so, so cute!


$5 for the 5 year old from Nanna...and yes, we had to spend it before we could do anything else in Grand Cayman.  She picked out a darling dress, which of course, required a little of our money too!


I posted a long time ago that I couldn't believe I was buying Twinkle Toes...well, I've bought another pair!  At least these don't light up!


Ballet skirt from little Cooper...


Playing shuffle board while waiting to get off the ship...getting off in Grand Cayman took a while due to it being a tender port and 6 ships being in port that day...


Finally on the tender headed to port...


She immediatly spotted Dairy Queen and got her a "birthday" dilly bar...

We found the 7 mile beach...


Her banana boat ride was so fun in Cozumel that she convinced Daddy to go on another one in Grand Cayman...


All ready...


She decided she wanted to ride in front...this ended up being a bad idea...half way through the ride they had to stop and switch places...that water was splashing in her face...



At the ice show...her favorite show on the ship...it was FABULOUS!  However, Daddy convinced us to sit on the front row so at one point one of the skaters came over the rail and tried to give her a kiss...we thought she was going to go into the row behind us...scared her to death!  The rest of the week people would stop us and say, were you the little girl at the ice show?



She took her own candles to dinner and wanted everyone to sing to her...well, when everyone sang, she decided to be shy and hide her face...crazy girl!


Just being Anna Lauren...you just never know with this kid!


And the perfect end to a perfect birthday...now...can I spend my birthday in Grand Cayman?
