These photos of my son and me taken six years ago at The Blowholes are some of my favorite vacation memories!

The Blowholes are a scenic and photographic spot located in Grand Cayman where a natural force of seawater constantly rushes through openings in the rocky shore, creating a "blowhole" effect. I could stand by the ocean to watch and listen to the effect for hours!

The images were taken when we visited the Cayman Islands in March of 2012. I would love going back one day to the exact location and taking photos of my son now that he's grown up.

These are gorgeous, Nina! What a rush to hear it passing through those holes at warp speed!

I was just thinking how amazing that in the blink of an eye, he is almost grown up.

She sighs Good luck on the contest!

Upped and Steemed Tip!

Yes, you've been to Grand Cayman too and witnessed The Blowholes firsthand. That side of the island has its own beauty, doesn't It?
He's grown entirely too fast and as the baby of the bunch it's that much more bittersweet. Thank you for the tip and luck, Denise. Very sweet of you!💙

Always my pleasure!

It's very beautiful there.

It's one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited. Thank you!

Such gorgeous captures...really... really... loved them.
Cheers to both of you! :)

Thanks, my friend for the visit! It's always a pleasant surprise when you leave kind words! Have a great day @amitsharma

The Pleasure is all mine! :)

These are beautiful photos of you and your son, Nina! Oh how I miss them at that age! You're both so sweet to see :-)

Thank you for participating! Beautiful pictures.

There used to be a blowhole around the point at Hanauma Bay in Hawaii where the locals would jump in. It was pretty exhilarating. And dangerous.

This was a cool post! What makes the photos so great are your smiles. I'm sure this was a great trip for you down memory lane :) I can feel it in your words.

What a sweet comment! @poetrybyjeremy I find myself taking more of these trips down memory lane, looking through old photos, as my son finishes his last months of high school. Have a great day!

At times we can feel nostalgic and miss the past, but if we get stuck looking at the past we might lose the present moment. ;)

It's all good -- no regrets -- and I look forward to the chapters (and vacations) ahead of us!
