Cayman.8--The Pink House or The Old Homestead

P1070462

According to Fred, most of the houses in the Caymans were destroyed in Hurricane Ivan in 2004. They were rebuilt as concrete rather than wood. However, there are a couple of old houses still on the island. The Old Homestead, built in 1912, is one of those.

As far as I understand, the traditional landscaping is gardens lined with shells. The gardens are minimal, with tropical plants spaced throughout the yard and the sand combed.
