One can imagine sugar cane merchants, the red clay roads leading to their plantations and "servants" burning and cropping the fields to harvest the cane; mixed with the sweet smell of molasses, a by product from refining the white gold.
This was a bygone time before Sweet and Low and Splenda.
No to Decaf, and Sugar Substitutes, with zero calories.
The bittersweet fact remains, African slaves, who outnumbered the Europeans 10 to 1, did all the labour.The effects I have come to know through Reggae music. Bob Marley's Redemption Song, vividly tells how awful the slave trade was.

Last year, 1.9 million cruise passengers visited the Cayman Islands bringing in $200m (22% of tourism revenue) while 460,000 overnight tourists brought in $680m (78% of tourism revenue). The ships aren't the only thing parked here. Liquid assets as well.
Where Wall Street Meets Main Street
A trillion+ US dollars are parked here, most of it in trust and hedge funds. Over 19,000 entities doing business here (well-on paper) you know like in Newport Beach, CA Mailbox etc. It's the Delaware of the Caribbean. With a big helping of Hollywood, and The Firm, this place had become a global villain. A sunny place for shady people? Nah. Just a place with no corporate income tax.

| A fool and his money are lucky enough to get together in the first place, but if they do, they visit the Cayman Islands. Some stay..Been coming here for a decade |
 Helicopters don't fly... they just beat the air into submission. Last time I was Up in The Air in one of these was New Zealand |
 |
| Ferbuary 2015 Partly cloudy with a chance of Paradise. Great stopover on our 50 Shades of Blue Tour.Grand Cayman, like The Postman, always delivers. |

New Year and a day in The US Virgin Islands. After a mile walk around the deck we witnessed the sun rising against the Caribbean blue ocean. Spectacular. As we bring in the new day, still thinking about the souvenirs from YESterday.
Last night we celebrated onboard the Disney Fantasy.
When it comes to Disney royalty, you can’t get much cooler than Elsa and Anna. We started the evening with the movie Frozen 2 and its takeaway of ..when under pressure, do the next best thing, was noteworthy.
Later...
We all had our own fireworks display to bring in the New Year, Setting things on fire on a ship? Yep...
 |
| Wow. Shooting fireworks from a cruiseship. Who does it? Disney of course.. Truly rocket science with these controlled explosions.- safety is of the utmost, wind direction and execution. Well done Entertainment Department! |
 |
| Deck 11 is the heart of the ship and the life of the party! |
