2 April Clearing into Caymans take 2


Our 14 days quarantine is complete and we can go ashore by dinghy to clear Customs and Immigration. It's so exciting to be going to land!

Both the Immigration and Customs officers are a delight. Cayman people are warm and welcoming. David is having a lively chat with the lady while I concentrate on filling in the many forms. What do you write when the country you are coming from is the same as the one you are arriving? My forms are completed and we wait for approval. Our passports are stamped as new entries with permission to stay for 30 days gratis. Next stop is the supermarket.

I'm receiving so many gifts it must be my birthday, as much fun as Christmas because when we arrive at the supermarket and show the police woman our photo ID she notes David is over 60, therefor a pensioner, and pensioners have priority to jump to the front of the queue. Never has being old(er) been so good. I should point out I'm not a pensioner but regarded as a companion, or a helper, for the elderly Captain. It gave us a good chuckle. There was nothing old about the way we attacked those well stocked shelves with fresh goodness and fresh baked bread. Definitely as a day as good as a birthday today.
