Good to see ya, HB. Glad you had a nice time as well.

@Bud - somehow I would have guessed that you were talking to me. Of COURSE I went to Hell! LOL!!! Last day I rented a car (ever see one of these, HB?), ALWAYS repeating "drive on the left, drive on the left..."



Drove that car from one end of that 22 mile island to the other taking in the scenery from the VERY isolated National Park where I snappped the shot above and below....



to the complete opposite end of the island, Rum Point (below).



What is by the National Park side? HELL! Really funny as I was just going to take this one shot (below) when the owner of that one store told me to go around back to see the reason why it is called Hell. There is a Hell, MI so I didn't think that there would be much but it is too funny. Would have just taken this shot and kept driving had she not said anything. Hey, got me into her store where I bought the traditional postcard, stamp and went to the post office next door to mail it. Postmarked from Hell! Too funny. I don't know for sure but I don't think Hell, MI has a post office.
Bought a shot glass as well...



For those that don't know, the above, a bar and little strip-mall of crap (with absolutely NO visitors when I drove in as the post office is there (to the immediate left of this store above, in fact) is all that there really is to the city of "Hell, Grand Cayman).

The photo below explains why it was named "Hell." Afraid the city in MI has no such rock formation....



I stayed right on 7 mile beach (nobody knows why they named a five-mile+ beach that name) but was scuba diving every day but the last which was good as 7 mile beach doen't have much open area unless you went down to the public beach a decent drive (or bus ride) down. While I never stopped at the McD's, I would imagine so as you can order beer with your fries anywhere in Europe and in all the local places where I actually ate.
