Apparently September 11 is also an important day of remembrance for the Caymanians because Hurricane Ivan devastated the Cayman Islands on 9/11/2004 causing terrible destruction, especially on Grand Cayman.
The link below by Deep Blue Images was posted on another forum and it includes before and after pics of Ivan that are very sobering, especially during the current threat of Hurricane Florence to the Carolinas.
I recognized some of the locations but not others. Two images that caught my attention were the picture of the Reef Divers boat "Cayman Sister" sitting on Yacht Club Road, and also the image of the Tarpon Alley dive site, covered in sand and devoid of life.
The good news is that the "after pics" in the collection show images of remarkable renewal and recovery.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of the individuals currently injured or threatened by storms in the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Pacific!
