Cayman Brac - Jerk Chicken

Barry's Golden Jerk Chicken, Cayman Brac, March, 2010

If you are ever in Cayman Brac you must try Barry's Golden Jerk Chicken. Open only Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights it features some of the tastiest chicken we have ever tasted. Golden Jerk is easy to find - follow your nose and look for lots of smoke billowing from the Bar-b-que.  I hope the following photos capture the mood.

Cayman Brac - Yellow Tube Sponge & Diver

Not sure if it was the camera setting or what, but everytime I took a photo of yellow tube sponges many times they looked almost fake. It must be just the way the flash illuminates the yellow sponge against the blue background.

Cayman Brac - Nurse Shark

Nurse shark with remora, Cayman Brac, March, 2010

Mick our boat captain/divemaster said to keep our eyes open for nurse sharks on this dive. Two sharks could be reliably be found at this site in the past, but they had not been seen for awhile. Tracey and I were first in the water and began our search, checking numerous overhangs and small caves. I stuck my head in one small opening and gulped as my eyes focused on the distinctive tail fin just in front of me. Backing out of the opening I signaled "shark" to Tracey and swam around to the other side of the coral head to see if I could get a better look. A larger opening to the cave revealed one tail, one head, another tail?!? THREE large nurse sharks were stacked in the hole like cord wood.
