Actually, island construction is very cheap, simple and pretty quickly
repaired/replaced. No central heat/air, no insulation, no basements.


Incorrecto. They have to import most of their housing products.

I hope the island recovers in time for our visit in November on the Miracle.


Yes, let's be sure of that.

Actually, I'm not the typical RTC poster for exactly this reason.

Geez, why can't everyone lighten up? I'm definitely not thinking of myself. I
hadn't heard how bad it was before I posted and feel terrible for the residents
especially those that depend on the cruise business. I have visited Grand
Cayman multiple times and wouldn't care if I didn't make it back this trip.
I'm in FL and still recovering from 2 hurricanes myself but I'm sure no one
here cares to hear about that.....
