We are lucky to know a couple from Edmonton here in Cayman. She works for KPMG, but unfortunately will be leaving on Jan.13th. They were quick to invite us out for a New Year's Eve party on what is called "Public Beach." No New Year's party will ever compare to this one! You know the ideology surrounding New Year's Eve: the more planned it is, the less fun it is. Well this was a complete surprise and turned out to be amazingly fun! We headed to the beach for 10pm. Although it is considered a public beach it is very clean, has washrooms and wooden cabanas lining the sand. The beach itself is part of the renowned Seven Mile Stretch, known for its white sand and warm, calm water. The night was perfect with a little bit of a breeze. We hung out on the beach and drank our Coronas and Malibu mixes while fireworks were let off at ten minute intervals throughout the night. The bonus here is that you can see all of the fireworks along seven mile beach too. Public Beach is apparently the place to be, because we met quite a few new KPMG people, and even, randomly enough, the guy who had been sitting beside Blake on our flight down (I had copied from his immigration form...). There was lots of music, and someone started a raging pallet fire that burned so hot we all had to move away from it. After midnight Blake and I decided to head back to our hotel so we ended up walking the entire 3mile stretch, but who cares when it is 30 degrees and beautiful outside!
