Driving The Cayman

There's a lot of car news out there we need to get to.

And I also just got back from the Cayman Islands.

As usual, when I go on vacation, I like to recap those.

What Car did I rent? What was the area like?

Was it expensive? What did we like?

What did we not like? Observations and a lot of the

little differences. So you're going to want to stick

around for that because it's excellent to the tariffs affect this. You know, it's not political,

but everything effects everything that we do, especially with cars and food. This is going to be a great

episode. Buckle up and let's go.

This is Hard Parking brought to you by Right Hunt and Right Toyota out of Scottsdale, AZ. I'm your host, Jay Finning

recording from my home studio, like legit video recording from my home studio in Gilbert, AZ. I want to kind of talk about the

last couple of guests that I had going back 2 episodes ago, Nick Keck, who sat here in front of me in my studio, and he was very open and honest about some of the things that he's been going to. And to put yourself in that

situation, the amount of, I would say, courage it takes to tell your story so that other people out there who can identify with it or may have friends that are in dark places, they can hear that or they can see that if you're watching it, you know, that's so powerful and it's a very vulnerable thing.

And like I told him, I don't know, like I go through my own mental struggles all the time and I don't know if I could have the power to go to my physician and say, Hey, I'm in a really bad spot, doc, I really need some help.

I just, I don't know, it's not the first time we've had people on here like that. And I used to have a series on

here called, you know, mental health check in with your friends. And that was kind of that thing.

And so one of the reasons why I do this is kind of, it kind of offers that therapy not only to myself, but also to my guests.

And I'm not a therapist. And like we joked, we're not

doctors, we're not lawyers, we're not attorneys, we're not scientists. When you have independent

thoughts, sometimes people label you as being as such.

You're not being like you're not qualified to talk about mental health because you're not a mental health professional.

And it's a very slippery slope. But sometimes just talking about

it, sometimes just getting it out helps and let you know that you're not alone. But it's a scary thing because

you don't want people that you tell this to to look at you differently. You just want them to know so

that somebody else knows. And that's a lot to put on

somebody as well as a listener as a peer.

But if you haven't heard that or watched that episode, I encourage you to go back. It's episode 264, two episodes

prior, and the most previous episode was with Jordan Sawaka, and hopefully you watched or saw that as well.

And that's episode 265. He's an incredible person and

I'd seen him out and about at different car events, Great person to talk to and we finally made it happen with me packing up and going to his his shop and I'm going to try to do a lot more of that this year. That's my commitment to you, the

viewer, to you, the listener of the show is to take the show on the road. Prior to 2025, the only time

you'd really see the show on the road is when I would go to a car events, set up the hard parking tent, the pop up the 10 foot and record audio but never. Really video?

Because it's a lot, it's actually a lot to be a one man show and take all the lights, the camera, the action.

No, but seriously, it's a lot to take the cameras, take the lights, to take the nice microphones.

And so I've kind of been experimenting with things that that I can take out and about. And then when you set up for a

show, you have the tent and you have all that stuff.

You got to make sure the audio was correct because the the difficult part about recording at a car event is there's just so much noise. If it's a good car event,

there's going to be DJs playing, there's going to be announcements made all the time. You're going to hear cars

whipping around in the background and you can't really get a really good audible setup when you're at a track.

It happens. I mean, we've all seen videos

where they may be broadcasting from live from the video, there's a lot of stuff going on. It's a lot for one person, but

that's my commitment because I had a lot of fun with both of those. Of course, in the the case of

one, Nick was sitting right in front of me and the other one I was went to Jordan's warehouse. If you haven't checked that that

episode, I encourage you just like I said the last time to go and watch the last 20-30 minutes of it.

If you listen to the audio, go watch him kind of go through the cars. It's an amazing you get to kind

of see put a face to the voice and he's just an amazing person.

And we're probably going to do it quite a few times because he said he had a lot of fun. But without further ado, let's

get into some car news. So toward the end of February,

there was reports showing up that somebody had donated a fleet of 10 cyber trucks to the Las Vegas Police Department.

Ben Horowitz is the man behind the donation.

He's known for donating a lot to the Las Vegas.

The Police Department says here on this Tech Crunch article that he's reported 7 million, at least 7 million over the last couple years. First off, I don't and I've said

this before so it's not breaking news, but I don't dislike the Cybertruck. I think it's interesting

looking. I don't personally want one.

It's not really a traditional truck, but how many people use their pickup trucks as really pickup trucks other than just city status vehicles? Trucks always lead every year.

The number one sold vehicle are always trucks.

Whether it's a Ford F-150, the Dodge Ram, some other truck, GMC, you name it, you can look it up.

Top ten vehicles, it's always trucks.

Like 3 out of the top five are always pickup trucks that we could argue with over a million sales.

They're not out there working the fields, OK?

They're not working construction.

They're just pickup trucks that people own.

I kind of wish I had a pickup truck, but one of the first things I have to ask myself with this, with this gift of 10 cyber trucks to Las Vegas is number one, why?

And in reading articles online, they're talking about turning them into SWAT vehicles. And so they're not getting them

all at once, but as SWAT vehicles, you have to ask yourself, when did Las Vegas turn into Robocop's Detroit?

Hopefully you've seen RoboCop. There's a lot of crazy stuff, so

crazy where they had to turn a guy that was presumed dead into an Android so he can go around and pull a gun out of his quadriceps and blast fools because the police were getting shot up. And it's corrupt 1980s.

Great movie by the way. I need to watch it again.

But when did Las Vegas turn into Robocops Detroit?

OK, you can make this cyber truck bulletproof.

They argue that it is already bulletproof to some degree, but now they have this special armored package that you've probably seen on the news. You've seen people crying about

it. What not?

Aren't SWARK trucks already bulletproof and they can get everything from an AR15 up to a 50 caliber round depending on obviously the proximity and what all is going on.

OK, so you're taking this big truck that you already have, which is pretty bad ass. I don't think there's anyone out

there that hasn't looked at a SWAT truck.

When you see it and the back door is open and they're doing their drills, you're like man, that is a cool looking truck.

Like that is a badass looking truck.

You see the SWAT? Truck coming around, you go, oh,

what's going on? You follow down the

neighborhood, want to see the action.

So a SWAT truck is bulletproof already and it also carries, depending on the make and model, 8 to 12 people.

So now you have the entire SWAT team in one SWAT truck.

The cyber truck carries 5 adults.

That's what it says online. Five adults.

Because at the end of the day, it's still a pickup truck with a funky looking bed. So what are we doing?

I think they're going to look really cool, that's for sure, because they look like they're from a futuristic movie.

And I'm all about futuristic movies because I am a sci-fi nerd. But 10 cyber trucks, Las Vegas

Police Department, what are we doing?

According to sources online, Honda has decided to produce its next generation of Honda Civics in Indiana, moving it up from Mexico because of the tariffs. What's good about this is it

just brings a lot more jobs to the United States.

I had it back and forth with somebody on Twitter X about this. One guy says the Honda Civic has

been popular in the United States since the first Fast and Furious movie. Don't think anyone here actually

gives a blip a nothing burger he says of this move.

So all it takes is 1/2 a second to research.

I said actually the F150 and other trucks are always top two or three. Like I just said in the last

segment from normal passenger vehicles.

The Civic remained the best selling compact car in 2024, up 21% from 2023. So yes, I think a lot of people.

Do give a. And it's going to be a lot of

jobs. In 2013, I went to Columbus and

we went to the Acura plant out there in Marysville.

I think I'm saying it right, Marysville.

OH, and nothing's big. And that's the number one volume

producer of Honda and Acura vehicles outside of Japan.

So it is a big deal, at least it was at the time, the number one producer outside of Japan, and I think bigger than anything they do in Mexico. So more jobs for more people in

Indiana about a month or two. Ago we talked about how Nissan

and Honda were talking about merging at some point last month, in early February, the conversations kind of fell apart and now it looks like Nissan might not even survive.

According to, and I may say this wrong in IKEA Asia website Nissan Community review leadership after a failed Honda merger talks. And according to Car Scoops, the

Nissan CEO admits the brand may not even survive without outside investment. So just like I said before,

maybe Honda and Nissan weren't going to actually merge.

Maybe Honda buys a majority stake in the company.

I could see that, but either way it looks like Nissan needs that outside investor. So who's going to step up?

It's going to be Ford. Ford always buys everything and

that's I don't have anything to indicate that it would be Ford, but since they have their hands and everything.

It's got to be Ford, but we'll continue to watch that story.

And of course, since I originally recorded that segment, so this is now a day later with the same shirt on because I like consistency is now being reported to the merger might be back on because the Nissan CEO is most likely going to step down any day now, maybe any minute now.

Hell, by the time this comes out.

It may have already happened. The Robotics and AI Institute,

also known as Rye Institute, has released a couple videos, most recently youtube.com. Rai Dash ININ just like a Rye

Institute, Rai Institute stunting with reinforcement learning. There's a robot that they do

robotics and AI. So there's a robot driving

around on a bicycle, looks like a bicycle for maybe a 5 year old. So it's a really small bike.

And this robot is attached to it.

It's a self leveling robot. So this thing drives around, it

can stop on a dime, it can back up, it can go forward.

It could jump. There's a really cool video of

it kind of going around the room, a lot of people behind the glass watching it, and it jumps up on what looks to be a ping pong table and then jumps off the ping pong table.

All of this without falling over.

I think someone's maybe controlling it.

It is a robotics AI institute, so it could be artificial intelligence kind of scanning the ground, but I also think somebody could be controlling it.

But either way, at the end of the video, it's kind of playing with a dog. So the dog has a toy like a

little ball. It's kind of playing with the

dog and the dog's barking at it. Weirdly enough, this page has

less than 2000 subscribers and they have only three videos.

You would think they would have 7 million views on this video and God knows how many subscribers.

There's also another video of a dog, a robotic dog running on a track, and finally a little bit of robots in my area.

I was driving to the store around Mother's Day and I noticed a a red delivery food delivery robot.

It had eyes on it like a toy. This one had a person behind it

on a bicycle and all sorts of bright yellow gear, and either this person was chaperoning the robot or controlling the robot.

Apparently, according to Reddit, this has been happening in my area for like the last six or seven months.

It looks pretty cool, but this is the future.

Freeburg on the All In podcast said last month that right now China has a food delivery service.

That's about what do you say? I want to say you said something

like billion dollars a year in China just delivering food.

So it looks like we are a lot further behind because wherever you live, if you're listening to the United States or watching this, you probably have not seen what I've seen here in Phoenix.

So let me know if you have. Have you seen any food delivery

robots in your area? And this is the car news.

You know, before I get to this main part of this episode where I talk about my awesome vacation and you're going to sit here and you're going to watch or you're going to listen to it.

I'm going to add some visuals for those of you actually watching this. I have a note here about a

friend of mine that I was going to go off on.

So I still have to go off on this person because there's a saying from the movie Snatch. If I give a dog a bone, I don't

need to know if it tastes good or not.

So think about that. If I give a dog a bone, I don't

need to know if it tastes good or not.

So a friend of mine hit me up, said he's looking for a car and we used to own the same type of car in NSX.

I'm not going to call him out by name out of respect.

I go, OK, well what are you looking for?

Because he wants a newer NSX. But First off, when he hits me

up, he says, hey, I'm looking for this car.

I'm thinking, OK, maybe he is just too busy.

We have access to the same resources.

I may be the president of the club.

That doesn't mean I have some sort of a secret list, some sort of a blacklist, black book of NS XS for sale.

So I go, OK, well, have you tried this one or this one?

He goes, yeah, I like that one, but it doesn't have this or this one cost more. I don't like the color of the

interior. I'm like, all right, whatever.

So reach out to somebody who another person in the community who seems to always find every single one of these cars is for sale. And I said, hey, I got a buddy

who's looking for a car between this amount of money and this amount of money, Let me know if you find something.

Seconds later, another guy slides into my DM and goes, hey, I got this car for sale. Oh, yeah, I forgot.

Like, we have a very small community.

Everybody knows each other. He goes, hey, I got my car for

sale. I go, oh, yeah, I forgot your

car's for sale. So I send this to my original

friend who asked. We'll call the original friend

Timothy. So I send this to Timothy, you

know, say, hey, Timothy, here's a guy who's selling a car.

Here's his information. Well, how much does he want for

it? I go, I don't know, here's the

guy. You guys connect.

You guys figured out I'm out of this.

So he hits me up later and goes, hey, I think I like his car.

Do you know of a transporter? You know anybody who's

transporting cars? I go, well, no, I've never

transported a car before, but I know that reliable is really good. That's who Barrett Jackson uses.

I have another friend who says that he uses reliable for all his cars. He's in the industry, moves a

lot of cars, a lot of time. I just want you to call reliable

or ask the seller if he knows somebody or go to Google and look. He goes, OK, cool.

Couple days later, hey, I can't find anybody to transport the car or it cost this amount of money.

Do you know of anybody else? So, OK, well, let me ask another

friend of mine. So I reached out to another

friend of mine in the same community, and I go, hey, you transport cars. You have your cars transported

all the time between where you live in Utah and here in Arizona, maybe California. Do you have any buddies in the

system? Do you have a favorite company?

So he sends me a couple of guys. He goes, yeah, this is so.

And so with transport. This is so and so with

transport, these are the guys that I use.

I go, well, where's one guy located?

He goes Idaho. I go, perfect, because I think

the car is in Idaho and it's going to California.

So I send this to Timothy and I say, hey Timothy, here's 2 transporters that came from a very good source who moves cars all the time. Timothy goes, OK, thanks.

You know, if they own the company or if they're just drivers, I go, I don't know man. Why don't you reach out to him

and ask him? Because here's the thing, I

don't fucking transport cars. I never transport cars.

It's not my job. But if I give you this

information, follow up on it and I tell them I go look man.

And I sent him this heated voice message.

I like sending voice messages instead of text messaging.

And look man, call him and find out if I give a dog a bone, I don't even know if it tastes good or not.

And if they're not what you want, then go to Google and search for transporters and it's going to go to a broker, a transportation broker. And you're going to get 500

calls from 500 different people all wanting to transport your vehicle. OK, man, cool, cool.

Long story short, he ends up buying the car, shows it to me, and he goes, hey, what's your wheel size and your wheel spec I really like. I'm just like, dude, here's my

wheel size, here's the offset, and here's the wheels that I use. But if I give a dog a bone, I

don't even know if it tastes good or not.

So therefore what that means is I've given you this information.

If it's good information, if it doesn't work out to you, not my problem. Go look it up or find another

resolution. I don't have all the answers.

I'm just somebody like you. Unlike you, I'm not lazy and I'm

not going to just not look it up.

So look it up and let me know how it works out.

Now that I got that out of the way, before I get in, I get to my vacation stuff. Nick, who was the guest couple

episodes ago, pointed out to me that in a lot of my episodes, I mentioned Streetcar Takeover as the people who like to go and they do Donuts in the middle of the intersection and you see all these viral, viral videos of them wrecking all over the place. He goes.

Jay, I want you to know that Streetcar Takeover is actually a sanctioned event. It's not these people.

So every time you mention streetcar takeover, I cringe a little because it feels like you're talking about these people that it's not. You're talking about all these

losers out there on the street. OK, so I want to address that.

No shade to the actual streetcar takeover, which is an actual thing on Instagram. Still shade to the people who

get out there and they do Donuts and they wreck and people dying, people get hit with cars and they're just very disruptive.

Like, screw those people. But those people aren't

technically the brand that is known as Streetcar takeover, where they do sanction events at specific areas that have plenty of security, fire, ambulance, police at race tracks around the United States. So apologize to them for that.

So let's talk about my trip to the Cayman Islands.

Notice I said Cayman instead of Cayman.

We've always say Cayman, like the Cayman Alligator, but it's actually Cayman. My wife and I realized that when

we were there because we turned on the radio station and they always said Cayman, Cayman, Cayman.

She said she overheard some lady saying that she gets annoyed that people say Cayman instead of Cayman.

I go, well, it's obviously both, but officially it must be Cayman. So went to Grand Cayman and

here's what we discovered. First off, when we got the

airport, we walked over to the rental car center and this place drives on the left side of the road, which is interesting because it's on the West side of the world.

You know, we have the West with obviously USA, Canada, Mexico, South America, all that kind of stuff.

So they drive on the left side of the road.

So we go inside and we get our car, which is really weird.

We get stuck with this Kia Soul. It didn't have car play.

You guys know how I am. No car play, no J.

So that really sucked. But over there on the roads, the

observation is they don't have a lot of traffic lights on this island and it's broken down by the West End, the East End, the North Shore or North Point. But there's not a lot of traffic

lights. There are some, but you don't

have four way stops, you have roundabouts.

There's roundabouts everywhere and it's pretty crazy trying to figure out that system at first because when you come up to a roundabout, it doesn't say yield.

Here in America, everything says yield, yield for traffic.

We all know what that means. It means kind of look before you

go. We do have roundabouts here in

Arizona, not very many, but we do have them.

So I kind of have some roundabout training.

We also had roundabouts when I went to Barcelona and when we went to Portugal. So you're kind of used to them.

But Barcelona and Portugal, you still drive on the right hand side of the road, not the left hand side of the road.

But one of the really interesting things is the cars were maybe 5050. So half the cars you were on the

right side of the car, half the car you're on the left side of the car like in US, but you always drove on the left side of the road. And I wonder like we, we could

never get away with that here in the United States, ever.

This is why we always drive on the left hand side of the car, on the right side of the road, and again over there, they still drive on the left side of the road.

But when you look up and you look at all the cars like in these traffic videos that I'm posting, it's 505055456040 at best of cars where you're on the right side of the left side of the car. As far as vehicles go, they have

everything. There's not a lot of big trucks

like here. When I think of a big truck, I

think of like a cement mixer. Here in the United States, you

get the big cement mixer, the big dump trucks, the big work trucks. You have the big trash trucks

that come up and down the alleys or up and down the streets with the little claw that comes out and grabs your trash bin and puts in the back. They have them, but they don't

have very many. But what they do have is the

equivalent of like the Japanese K trucks, the K cars.

I have AK car myself. They look just like AK car, like

AK truck, but they're about the size of a full size single cab pickup. And it's really funny looking.

A lot of them are dualys on the back, so it looks like a little truck. But when you get up on it, it's

about the size of a full size. Like I said, a full size regular

work trucks. We're not talking like a king

cab or queen cab, just a full size truck, except for it's just a little squishy thing. So imagine a dump truck that

size, a dump truck the size of a regular non lifted pickup truck.

And it's very utilitarian. Everything over there, all those

trucks. So they have all these little

work trucks going all over the place.

There's little flat beds all over the place and they're smaller than you're ever used to normally seeing.

But they're not tiny like the K trucks.

They don't have a real freeway system.

They have a highway system. I think the average speed, the

average top speed when you're all in is like 60 miles an hour, which is another thing. They don't go by KMH, they go

for MPH, which is what I'm used to, but it's still kind of weird a little bit as far as the cars. And we're going to get in the

food, we're going to get in the Excursions, but just this is the non automotive automotive podcast.

We're going to talk about the cars first.

They have this thing over there and I'm looking at my notes in front of me called a Changan or Changan CHANGAN and it looks like an accurate emblem upside down.

And I don't think I've seen that before.

When I was in Europe last year, it was new to me.

And it looks like they're kind of a luxury brand because I saw an SUV about the size of an Acura RDX, but I also saw a few passenger vehicles, but it's called a Changun.

Looks like an Acura. It's kind of cool.

I I saw a legit DC-2 Integra Type R sitting in someone's front yard when I was driving across the island.

You don't see that in United States because those cars get stolen all the time. But being a car guy, being a

Honda guy, being an accurate guy, you know, you notice those cars like my wife has no idea. I'm looking at it like, wow,

that is a legit championship. White DC-2, JDM and Tiger type

are you know, it doesn't have the the those lights like we have in the States, the circle lights.

It's got the the JDM bars. But it looked kind of cool just

sitting out there in front of somebody's yard.

I saw a lot of Honda's, a lot of DC twos, a lot of clapped out beat up ones. Every once in awhile you saw the

modified car. I'm pretty sure I saw an accord

Sir or core type RI think on the side of the road.

I put a note here to verify if that's even a thing because I couldn't remember. I go is that a chord?

Siri think that's a thing? Is it a thing?

Tell me in the comments if you're watching this online.

Is it a thing? But I know there's an accord

type R again from Gran Turismo. Every once in a while you did

see like a full size semi and it was it was awkward to see because you're not used to seeing it here in the states.

You see them everywhere, but it was a full size semi, but instead of the big payload in the back, it was construction.

Clearly construction, but the roads are kind of small.

They're not Europe small. Most of the main roads are two

and two, but the turning lane in the middle, which is took some getting used to as well. I did see some American cars

there. Let's see, we saw a handful of

Tahoes. When you see a Tahoe on Grand

Cayman, it's kind of like seeing a Hummer H1 in the United States. It's just a bigger vehicle than

you would normally see. And when it comes to parking at

the hotel, it was just a bigger vehicle.

And granted, I have a key of soul as my rental.

So that's a normal vehicle that you see here in the United States quite often. But there the key of soul was

was kind of big. They had a few Camaros.

I saw a handful of Camaros, nothing, no ZL ones or or SSS.

But you saw you still saw the Camaros, which again are bigger cars over there. The ZR, is it the ZR2 truck, The

Chevy W? You would know, it's kind of the

sportier Chevy truck, ZR2. I saw a couple R eights, Audi R

eights, which were kind of cool. One on the road, a black one on

the road, and 1 backed up to someone's house when we were driving to the east side of the island.

The east side of the islands got a lot of money.

The West side's got some too, but the West side's where the airport is and most of the shopping and most of the tourism. But the east side, there's some

mansions, there's some nice houses there, so some GTRS and I did see a Lotus Amira, which is kind of cool.

And of course every cool car I see, I think to myself, how do they get them there on this small island?

It must cost a fortune to get them there.

This island doesn't seem to care if your right hand drive or left hand drive, which that must be nice.

So what does it take to get your vehicle on the Grand Cayman?

Is there any NS XS on Grand Cayman?

I doubt it. There could be some first Gen.

NS XS. There could be a second Gen.

I didn't see a lot of Acuras there.

A lot of times when I would see what I would think would be an Acura TSX, it's actually a Honda Accord.

But I did see a couple TS XS, which is weird.

So for every 20 Honda Accords that look like an American TSX, three of them might have actually been an accurate TSX.

So there are some Acuras there. I saw an RDXI, saw a couple MD

XS, late model MD XS like the ones that we have or the one that we have Outback. I would say of of all the

vehicles there, one of the funniest things were all the Toyota Voxy vans, the kind of SUV vans, VOXY.

And they were used for transportation a lot from the airport and they were used for a buses.

They call them buses, public bus, but these things weren't fitting more than like 8 to 10 people on them.

So that's a really small public bus.

A lot of them had Fender flares, believe it or not, and little kicked out wheels like you'd see on like an Acti or any K vehicle here in the United States. So it's kind of cool.

I saw this one, a Mystery Machine walked up on it and recorded it. It was broken down at the time

that I took this video, but the Mystery Machine was pretty cool.

So you could tell that they still had some pride in some of their vehicles. A lot of mobile detailing units,

some of them boxes. I would say that the official

vehicle of Grand Cayman is the Honda Fit.

There were Fits everywhere. Everyone had a Fit.

See what I did there? But no, there were, there were

Honda Fits everywhere, but all different years, generations.

They were everywhere. And you kind of understood being

a smaller island and you go to the public beach and all these cars are parked and there's not a lot of real estate to.

Park a car. There are obviously other things

besides Honda Fits. They had a lot of little

miscellaneous Toyotas. There were a handful of Subarus.

There were some car manufacturers that didn't recognize a lot of really tiny cars.

Not K class tiny cars, but really small cars.

Not quite Euro either, because Euro just the, it's like the smallest small of the small, right?

I've never been to Japan. Of course.

I would imagine they have a lot of tiny cars too.

But it was pretty. It was pretty crazy to see so

many Honda Fitz and so many tiny cars everywhere as well as mixed in with big cars as well as having right hand drive and left hand drive vehicles. At the end of the day, I think

the Kia Soul that we had as a rental was perfect except for again, it had no car play because I had no car play.

It also had no rear view camera like backup camera.

Imagine that dealing with that. For a week.

Because we were there for about 5-6 nights, we were there for a week and a small place that you're not used to going another country and you have to actually backup old school way.

Some of you watching this, some of you listening to this have no idea what that's like, but there was a time where every vehicle did not have a reverse camera and this was the time.

So that's about it for the car segment.

We're going to get into the excursions and the food next.

I'd say one of the funny things about going to K man is when you start looking at their excursions on V eighter and what's the other one? TripAdvisor, yeah.

So V8 and TripAdvisor, they have like four or five different things that they do there. You can rent a jet ski, but

there's no jet ski excursion. And the price to rent a jet ski

is astronomical compared to anywhere else we've been in the Caribbean. So what they have is every,

almost every tourist company has a Stingray adventure, starfish adventure, snorkel adventure. They're all very expensive.

Some of them want you to book. Like a private boat, which is

super expensive. All of this is in Cayman

dollars. I'm going to break that down in

the end of what that actually means, but just know it's very expensive. They have a bioluminescence Bay

you can go to, which we didn't. They have these caves.

It's the Lactites, the Lagmites. Apparently it's one of the best

things to see in all the world. We didn't go to that after

reading a bunch of reviews of finding out it's actually kind of a small area. It's kind of expensive for what

you get to. It's like 100 and like 80 bucks

each person to go to this excursion when at the end of the day it's just a small cave apparently.

Again, according to all the reviews, it's important to decide what you want to put your money on.

What we ended up doing is the first day we were there, so we get there in the morning, we chill, but like the next morning we do an excursion and we'd actually plan for it to be later in the afternoon, but they called and said, hey, your boat isn't filled up yet so we're going to move you guys into the morning. So we end up getting picked up

at like 8:30 in the morning at the hotel, but we ended up doing the Stingray, starfish and snorkel excursion and I think we paid 80 bucks apiece, which isn't much.

A lot of them were like 100 and 120.

They have this thing called Starfish Point and on Starfish Point, maybe Starfish City now they got Starfish Point.

You take a boat out there, you get out the boat and it's a beautiful, weirdly, the waters are pretty calm for being out in the middle of the ocean and there's starfish everywhere.

And so we did that. And then after that we got back

on the boat and we went to another part of the area.

First off, the water is very safe.

They have sharks, but apparently there's never been a fatality in Cayman Islands, which is cool. So you get a little more

confidence out there in the water.

So we go out there and it's in the middle.

I was in the middle of the ocean, but the realistically the middle of the ocean is Hawaii. So you're not in the middle of

the ocean, but you're miles offshore.

You can't really see land. I guess you could, but it's far

away, so you're not in a Bay, let's put it that way.

And all these boats are there and they back you up and you get off. There's this huge sandbar.

It's probably, I don't know, 4 1/2, probably 4 1/2, almost 5 feet deep. And there's Stingrays

everywhere. And there's probably 7 or 8

tourist boats out there, whether they're private or big groups like ours. There's a bunch of tourist

guides out there. And there was probably, I

estimated maybe 55 or 60 Stingrays.

What we found is that the really big Stingrays are the women and the smaller ones are the males, females and males, not women, sorry. The smaller ones are the males.

But what our tour guide did would they would grab them and hold them and you could hold the Stingray, but you had to kiss the Stingray. We didn't hold or kiss the

Stingray because that's freaking disgusting.

Some people did, but you also had the opportunity to feed the Stingray. And so I said, all right, I'm

going to feed the Stingray. What they do is they tell you to

take your hand like. This and if you're watching this

on video, you'll see if the tuck your thumb.

And go like this. So they hand you the bait and

the bait is kind of hanging off kind of like like this.

And the Stingray comes up and it's like this.

But what happened was I got bit when I did it, the thing bit my hand. So you can see here on the video

that Mark that doesn't look like a teeth.

Their teeth are weird looking. I googled it afterwards.

So if you're interested, look up Stingray.

Teeth and you'll see there's just like this weird crosshatch pattern. It's the weirdest thing ever.

But that thing broke my skin a little bit and I think I had an allergic reaction. I might be allergic to

Stingrays, I'm not sure. But nothing broke my skin.

And it hurt. It hurt for like an hour.

And it wasn't like, oh, my thumb is broken, but it hurt like if I got my hand caught in something because I did.

I got my hand caught in the stingray's mouth.

And I got all sorts of videos you can see here.

You just sticking my iPhone underwater?

Yes. An iPhone is water resistant and

iPhone is waterproof. You can stick your iPhone in

your swimming pool without a special case on.

You can stick in the ocean. I've done it many times.

You can stick it in the river. Now, there's always a chance

that you're going to have one of those iPhones that.

Are not perfect we went down the the Salt River, which is not salt it's just called Salt River for some reason here in Arizona.

My wife's phone got destroyed. My phone was in my pocket when

we all jumped off of our kayaks in the middle of the current fought like hell to stay alive and my phone was fine and so I'm pretty confident in taking my phone into the ocean.

But we to be clear we had a travel phone but if the travel phone is an iPhone 15 pro so you know it's very confident but I didn't have a special case on it.

So we we ended up doing that and we went and went from the Stingray excursion, which is really cool if you ever go to Cayman, if you ever get an opportunity to do a Stingray excursion. Don't think that you're going to

be the crocodile guy and the freak thing happens where you get stabbed through the Barb of the heart.

That was a different type of Stingray.

These are mild, more mild Stingrays and the.

Chances of that happen are one in a trillion.

Steve Irwin, right? Steve Irwin's the name.

Yeah. After that, we went and did a

snorkel excursion, which is the third.

And that was fine. It wasn't great, wasn't boring.

We've snorkeled before on vacation.

But one time when I came up, there's this kid screaming through the top of his lungs. And apparently one of the kids

that were on the tour boat with us got hit by a jellyfish.

Like he this thing was all over him and stung him and stung his dad. And this poor kid couldn't have

been more than like nine years old.

And he was hollering, saying he that he was going to die.

And it was awful. But they didn't tell us we

needed to come back. But everything, everybody kind

of read the room or read the ocean, right?

And kind of looked around. I was like, yeah, all right.

Everybody kind of headed back to the boat.

But that was the only only paid excursion we went on.

Everything else we decided to just kind of go along depending on what the day holds. So one of the other really cool

things we did is we went to the Cayman turtle center.

And the turtle center is kind of like a, a small zoo and it's all about guess it turtles, turtles and lizards.

And they also had a Cayman crocodile there or alligator crocodile, whatever. But it was weird when we went to

the the turtle center because the thing was empty.

We went on Saturday and I was thinking, gosh, I think it's going to be crawling with families and kids and just annoying people, but when you're on vacation, you just do it anyway. So I was prepared to go and have

to deal with all the crowds and all the obnoxiousness and the noise, but there was almost nobody there.

And so I asked the lady at the front about, hey, I mean, are you guys ever busy? Because this was Saturday.

This was prime time. It was like Saturday at like 1.

And she said, well, when the cruise ships come in, they're always busy because you could book that cruise excursion, I would imagine, because it's not like it was on the Bay.

It was probably 8 miles north. But when we went, it was just

myself, Yvette. And I mean, there was probably,

if you could have rounded up everybody at the Turtle Center that day, maybe 50. And that's not a lot of people.

Again, this is if you've been to Phoenix, this was about. 1/4 of

the size of the zoo in Tempe, so it was a decent size for something dedicated to just turtles.

What was cool is I think we paid 40 bucks a piece to go in there, maybe $35, and it came with an option to go snorkeling with the turtles. And so of course, we took

advantage of all that stuff. We put the snorkel gear on, the

life jackets that we had to wear, the mandatory.

And they have kind of like this little lagoon saw stuff like a beach to kind of get in the water, kind of slimy and kind of nasty. But when you get to the deep

part, there's the sea turtles. So you can kind of swim with the

turtles and the fish. Obviously, you're not allowed to

touch them. But this video, of course, is

with me again saying, screw it, I have an iPhone.

I'm just going to take it and and record it under the water.

And at any given time, I mean, you could be 3 feet away from a sea turtle. And they weren't very big.

I think the biggest ones that we were snorkeling with might have been 2 feet shell from shell to shell.

But also in the turtle center, separated from us, they had giant turtles. Like, these things were the size

of my desk. Like, these were the grown ninja

turtle turtles. So I guess what you do there is

you can sponsor and they release them to the wild.

Not allowed to see there. Other than that, the turtles,

there's birds. They have like a little bird

center. Like, who cares?

I honestly, I don't care about birds.

Anytime I go to a zoo, they go, OK, you can go in here.

Look at all the cool birds. So what?

I'm not here to see birds. I'm here to see, like, real

animals. As you can see here, they're

really known for their blue iguana.

So here's a blue iguana, a giant blue iguana in this other iguana. Yeah, they're not real.

And then they had the turtle tanks in the back look like imagine this. They look like a bunch of above

ground swimming pools. And I don't know why these

turtles were in that tank versus the ones that were kind of tripping over there each other when we first came in, which is another larger tank. So maybe they separate them all

by age. I guess that makes sense.

And then I don't, I didn't take a picture of it, but they do have one Cayman crocodile and apparently they're an endangered species. And this thing was sleeping and

I thought it was a bigger deal because on the schedule says crocodile feeding or alligator feeding, whatever the case, Wednesdays at like 11:30. So I'm like, this must be a big

deal. Wednesday is 11:30.

Maybe the cruise ships come in, maybe the local schools do field trips here. But they literally had one, one

alligator or crocodile, again, I don't remember.

I think 1's freshwater, one saltwater.

Whatever the case, they only had one.

Apparently they're an endangered species on Cayman because you can get a Cayman alligator crocodile.

They're probably plentiful in other places, but on the island of Grand Cayman there's not very many of them.

They said it's super rare if you ever see them.

Some of the other things we did is the last day we went to the Cayman Spirits Company, so they're known for making rum.

So we did that tour, bought a couple bottles of rum at the duty free shop. But there at his shop, I bought

a bottle of this rum that was quite expensive, more than I usually spend on any bottles. But it's kind of one of those

deals when you're on vacation and you see something cool and you know for a fact you can't get in the States and get it.

And if you, if you like that type of stuff, you should buy it. So I think we paid, I don't

know, close to $300.00 for a bottle of rum, but it was cured

in like French wine barrels and it was pretty good.

So I have it downstairs. Let's talk about the beaches.

So the beaches, it's the Caribbean.

There's almost no bad beach on the Caribbean.

The thing about the Caribbean is if you haven't traveled, it depends on the time of year in what part of the island you're at. Because think about the

currents, think about the way the wind blows, and think about all the seaweed because there's seaweed.

But some beaches you go to and there's not seaweed anywhere.

Some parts of the beach you go to and there's nothing but seaweed. Like I think when we went to the

Dominican, right behind the hotel you can see the water.

You can see the sand, but if you wanted to get to the water, you had to walk across probably 8 to 10 feet worth of seaweed that it just kind of gone up on the shore.

But when you go to the other side of the island, there's not seaweed to be seen anywhere because the way the currents are going. So fortunately for us, most of

the beaches on the West End, which is the more condensed part of the island, beautiful beaches.

Some of the beaches on the East End were pretty pretty.

We're pretty pretty. We're beautiful too, but they

weren't as inhabited. Apparently Grand Cayman is known

for scuba diving, which I don't scuba dive.

My wife talks about Wanda scuba dive.

I snorkel barely, but I still enjoy really crisp and Clearwater. It's, it's pretty amazing to

look out and you know, all the dark spots is the plant life or the coral. And when you look in the water

at any given time, you'll see like little sharks or you'll see Stingrays. And you don't have to be

anywhere a particular actually, the more wild area that you're at, the more stuff you're going to see just because there's not a lot of people there. But if you ever get an

opportunity to go, I would suggest driving your car to the East End of the island and going up to like Starfish Point or whatever. And we stopped at a place we're

going to get to the food right now.

We stopped at a place called Tukka TUKKA.

There's a couple locations on the island.

We stopped at the one on the east side and it was some of the best food we'd had the entire trip because the food in general was OK. The the thing about Grand Cayman

is they don't they don't have like a specific cuisine.

They have Cayman style. I still don't know what the hell

that means. Maybe some pepper.

One of the places we went to called Peppers, right across from the hotel is really popular place.

The menu looked fantastic. The first night we got there,

we're walking around looking at the menu and we're like, wow, that looks really good. We have to come here at some

point. We end up going there and, and,

and in my honest opinion, it felt like a big tourist trap.

If it was OK. I ordered a kind of the, the hot

like 3 pepper jerk BBQ ribs and we're kind of spoiled here in the United States. We smoke everything right like

smoked ribs. There's nothing better.

We get it and it's BBQ Y tangy. There's like no heat.

There's like 0. Heat and Yvette ordered

something there. It wasn't that good.

And what we realized pretty quickly is the island doesn't have a specific flavor. Like you can go to Jamaica,

which we haven't been to. But they have jerk, right?

That's what they're known for. Jerk.

Jerk chicken, jerk, fish, jerk, whatever.

There's a lot of jerk on the menus in Grand Cayman, but none of the jerk we ordered ever actually tasted like jerk.

Like we've had real jerk food before and it's it should blow your face off and it didn't. So it's kind of disappointing.

I went to a Tilly's, which is really popular there.

We didn't have dinner there, but we were walking around one night and we kind of stumbled across Tilly's and sat down and had a drink at the bar. Really cool place, really cool

vibe. I would like to go back and go

to Tilly's. Went to a place called Casa 43,

which is a Mexican restaurant. Casa 43 had really good food, a

ton of different tequilas. It was a tequila place.

So all they have is tequila because it's a tequila place.

Really good food. Casa 43 we went and spent a lot

of money in a place called Maya Konis.

So we met a guy named Darian the first night when we're walking around and he's a bartender at a place.

First off, the beer on the island, they have their own beer sucks. OK, in my opinion, I've tried

their I've tried both their IP as I've tried their light.

I tried their regular beer. Not good.

So, you know, they have Cayman Beer Company or whatever.

Not good. I think it sucks.

So anyway, we were talking to to Darius and he's from Cuba.

So he told us about Myoconus which.

Is a kind. Of a fancy steak restaurant.

So one night we went to Myoconus.

Atmosphere was awesome. The food was really good.

My steak was a little overcooked for the way I want it, but Yvette was like butter. It was delicious.

Spent a lot of money. Yep, spend all the money there.

But the food at Myaconis, if you want to swing it, I think we spayed, we paid maybe $350.00 for a meal between the two of

us. We went to a place called Yoshi

Sushi and those are traditional. You kind of sit in the floor

style, not on your knees, but you know, they kind of cut away in the in the floor. So you kind of sit in the floor

and that was really good. Didn't break the bank, which was

fantastic. Went to a place called Heritage

Kitchen. The place it's, you could tell

it's home cooking. You could tell it's very, very,

very local, about as far as you can get from a tourist trap.

You kind of have to wander off in a different part of the island and go between this skinny road and you kind of go behind this other thing. And it's just like this little

shack looking restaurant. The friendliest servers on the

planet. And the food there was delicious

too. And it unlike some of the other

places we went to, it didn't break the bank.

Went to a place called Coconut Joe's, a garbage chores trap, Overrated. And even the food at the

Marriott that we stay at the Marriott resort was actually pretty good. Some things were better than the

other, but it was overall pretty good.

If I were to give some final thoughts about the trip, First off, they have real grocery stores.

OK. They have a place called

Foster's. They have another place.

Foster's is cool. So Foster's is like, I don't

know if you've ever been to a Wegmans, Certainly you've been to a Whole Foods. So Foster's is kind of like a

super Whole Foods is what I'm going to call it because Whole Foods isn't that big, but I've been to Whole Foods in Fort Worth. It was ginormous to where they

have a ton of different restaurants inside.

They have the hot food like the hotline where you can go.

And it's like, I feel like it's not 24/7, but any time of day.

If you go for lunch or breakfast, they probably have eggs out there. They have dinner items out there

and they, and you get the food and you go to pay for it and they charge you by the weight and it's hot food.

You know, it's perfect place to go and have lunch.

That's why I said like Wegmans is kind of on the East Coast and I used to go to Wegmans all the time when I worked in person on the East Coast next to Foster's. They had a thing called

Blackbirds. Blackbirds or Blackbeard's

Liquor. I don't know, there's like two

or three of them on the island. That place was cool too.

But what I found inside Blackbeard's or Blackbirds or whatever we're calling it is they had all the blends which you can't even walk in anywhere in the United States.

Typically you'll find it unless it's the second or third hand store and then they want like crazy prices for it.

So if you want to buy blends in the United States and it's retail, you're going to pay anywhere from 74 to $89.00.

Typically if you walk to a place and they have it like second hand stores, like some of the gas station stuff, they want like almost 300 dollars, 250, three, $100 for a bottle of blends like get out of here. So it's kind of how it was

there, but they had the Blantons from the barrel, they had the Blantons gold, and sometimes you find regular Blantons.

And of course it cost more than it would cost here.

But the fact that I'm looking at it in a liquor store and they have 3 or 4 of each one just blew my mind.

One of the coolest things I saw was Fortaleza.

So I don't know if you guys drink tequila, I drink tequila.

I like Fortaleza. It's one of the best tequilas

out there in my opinion, in the opinion of many others, very hard to find here in the United States.

When you find it, you have to buy it or it's gone quickly a lot of times. So if you're into bourbon and

you go to these allocation things, you stand in line forever and if you get there early enough, you get first pick. Fordeleza is usually one of

those things that they throw in there with Eagle Rear, Elmer T Weller, Weller 12, Weller Antique.

And then there's always like a few other ones that are very expensive and they only have a couple of them.

So that what happens if you stay in line, you get inside and it's like, all right, well, they don't have this, this, this, but they do have Weller and whatnot. For the Les is going to be one

of the first things that people grab.

And it's not expensive. I think it's like $6570 a bottle

for like the Blanco. And it goes up from there.

But you almost never see it in the United States when you walk into a store in Blackbeard's, I'm going to call it Blackbeard.

That makes sense for a pirate in Blackbeard.

They had three. They had four reposados and like

6 Platas, which is the silver one.

Now it's mind blown. So I bought 2 bottles.

I bought one for me and one for my good friend who always looks.

He travels around everywhere. He travels to Mexico.

He can never find it. So I hit him up.

I say, hey, I got you, I got you.

And the plan was like, all right, It costs about $100 USD, Going to bring it back. Maybe.

I just give it to him because I know he's good for it.

He's giving me stuff. I've given him stuff.

Maybe I tell him because sometimes I don't have any money. Hey, yeah, it's 100 bucks.

You can have it for 100 bucks. I'm going to bring that full

circle at the end of this story. So I bought that for him.

I bought me a bottle. I killed it in like 3 days

because I decided that I'm probably going to have to bring more rum, which I eventually bought that 300, that $300.00

bottle at the distillery place. So I needed the room.

Yvette bought her Tito. She paid about two and 1/2 times

more for her Tito's there and then she would normally get here. But you know when you travel,

you have the water bottles and you just fill those with your mixed drinks. You go to the store and you buy

all your mixers and that's what you walk around with all day on vacation. Save yourself a lot of money.

We drove around with that. But The thing is, killing a

bottle of liquor in three days between two people, actually, we each had our own bottle. OK, so that seems like a lot of

liquor, but it really isn't because when you break it down, let's say you leave the hotel at 10/30/11 in the morning, you go out and do whatever you're going to do.

You don't get back till 5:30, six, 7:00 at night over the course of three days, you're barely drinking.

So if anything, you're kind of wasting the alcohol because you never really get past the light buzz phase.

And usually you don't even get to a light buzz because you're taking a drink out of it every probably 30 minutes, right.

So that's like I, I do 1 drink Wednesday with Wes Tankersley and on a good one drink Wednesday, which takes about an hour, we have like 3 drinks on a slow one, it's like 1 1/2 drinks. So think about the amount of

alcohol you consume within an hour and 1 drink Wednesday versus what you would consume during the course of an entire day on the beach, right? So it's almost like wasting it.

The liquor prices overall were a little high.

That's not really the the worst of it.

The worst of it is the fact that the Cayman dollar and the US dollar aren't worth the same. So one U.S. dollar is worth

about $0.83 in Cayman dollars and everything over there is in

Cayman dollars. So technically we're under them.

We as in the United States. So everything there, if you go

to the restaurant, you go to the bar, anything you buy other than at the grocery store comes with what's called a gratuity.

So you think of a gratuity as when you are at the restaurant you're ordering and it's like the server does a good job.

You say, OK, well if you sucked, maybe 15%, maybe 0 if you're if you were barely breathing, 15 average is 18%.

And if you really liked your server, you tip them 20%, typically 18 to 20% right over there.

When you look at your receipt, it's automatically 15% gratuity.

So the first night when we were talking to Darian, the the guy from Cuba, the bartender, I'm looking, I go 15%.

It's already on here. And he goes, yeah, I go, man,

it's like you guys are screwing yourselves.

Exchange rate, they go, yeah, in America, a good tip is like 18%, eighteen to 20, because I tip bartenders really well.

So I gave him a little extra money than his normal and whatnot. A full circle to the end of the

trip. And we're looking at this point,

everywhere we've gone to eat has this 15% gratuity tacked on.

Sometimes they tack on 18% automatically.

And it's not as if you have a party of like 8 to 10 people.

It's just you or you and whoever you're with.

Automatic 18%. But I figured, eh, 15% not bad,

18% not bad. But then we get the hotel bill.

And here's the thing, OK, so on the hotel bill, and I have it here in front of me, that's why I keep looking down, they give you a gratuity charge on every night, a resort fee, which of course, you know, you get a resort fee.

It wasn't an all inclusive resort, it's just a resort fee and an accommodation tax. So you have your room fee, your

service charge, which is gratuities, your resort fee and your accommodation tax. So I wrote this down and this is

how it all adds up. OK, so we're going to do this in

Cayman dollars first. So one of our room nights was

$500. I think we paid anywhere from

420 to 500. You know, dollars a night for a

room sounds like a lot because it kind of is not the worst.

We're going to go to Turks and Caicos.

Until we looked at the the hotels, all of them were like 900 to $1200 a night. Like yeah, no hard pass.

So the room night was $500, gratuity $60.00, resort fee $50,

accommodation tax $66. This was 676 Cayman dollars a

night. A lot of money.

You know what that is in USD according to the exchange rate right now, 810 U.S. dollars a night.

So we stayed here for five nights, maybe 6.

I don't know what the math is. So when we got that hotel bill,

we're kind of looking at each other like, holy shit, the hotel was nice. Wasn't that nice.

But here's what we learned and here's what I'm telling you, if you ever go to Grand Cayman, Cayman, this is one of the safest islands on the entire Caribbean, if not the safest island, the Caribbean. There is no major crime, there's

no violent crime. There's not even sharks that

kill people. Plenty of places to stay.

If we were to go back, you could literally stay anywhere.

You can stay at a $5000 a night hotel.

You can stay at an Airbnb if you could find one for a decent price because when we travel, we like to stay at the main hotels because you feel like a little more comfort.

You feel like they are a little, they're a little more hospitable and you're not familiar with the place.

But if we were to go back, we could stay anywhere.

We could still eat the same foods, we could still do the same excursions. And at the end of the day, we

probably would have stayed for ourselves.

Like $2000, easily $2000.00. So finally, they always say to

arrive at the airport 3 hours early when you're traveling international, and this is the second or third time in a row we've been burned on that. You get there three hours early

and there was nobody working. The only people there three

hours early are the other people who decided to actually get there three hours early. So you have the zigzag line of

travellers who may or may not even be able to get into the computers to check their bags in an hour and a half before the flight or 30 to 45 minutes later, sometimes an hour later than the actual airline staff shows up.

So I won't tell you to not show up three hours early, but you might be better if you showed up two hours early because otherwise you're going to be sitting there twiddling your thumbs. So what did I say about Full

Circle with a Fortaleza? So today my buddy and his wife

showed up for their bottle of Fortaleza.

So I took it out there to them. He was very appreciative of it,

of it. And he goes into his trunk,

opens his trunk, pulls out a gun and shoots me with it.

No, so he goes into his trunk, pulls out a trunk, has these two cool mugs for his business that he invests in and go hey, this is our business. This is our other venture

partner, one for you and your wife.

It's like, oh cool, it's not no big deal.

Here's a shirt that I got when I went to Acura.

It's like, oh cool, here's a hat.

I'm like, oh, you don't have to do this dude, this is cool.

It's all right, cool. It goes back into his trunk,

pulls out his gun and shoots me. No, I'm just kidding.

He goes back into his trunk, pulls out this box, walks up with this box, and inside this box there are 4 bottles of tequila and a bottle of champagne, all for me as a gift.

It was OK. I got the G4 regular, I got the

G4 high octane, I got the G4 reposado.

I got this other tequila. It's a reposado.

None of these have additives or it's actually an inejo.

None of them have additives. Hope you like if you're had this

before. No, I haven't.

OK, I hope you like it. And here's a bottle of champagne

whenever you and your wife want to celebrate.

I'm like, dude, I literally got you one bottle of Fordeleza.

You give me all this and you know what?

He asked me, hey, do we owe you anything for the Fortaleza?

No, you do not. No, you do not.

And that wraps up our trip to the Cayman Island.

And I suggest if you have an opportunity to go, if you've gone on a cruise ship, one day is not good enough because you can't really go that far. But if you can handle it, go

there for a day or two. That's plenty of time to explore

the island and it's beautiful waters.
