Our bahamas trip has made it all worthwhile...


For a good part of our journey (especially the current one) we have sometimes felt more like delivery captains than explorers. First it was a mad dash south to out run winter.  We are currently on a dash north to find safety for the upcoming hurricane season. But, in between, we spent a glorious month in the Bahamas, and it has made it all worthwhile.  Here are the highlights, in pictures, because words don't do justice to this place...

Sailing along in our swimming pool clear water to our next destination...

Sailing to another beautiful beach!

Sharks are UNPREDICTABLE!

Needless to say, we really enjoyed our time in the Bahamas this Spring, and are already planning our return next winter, with hopes of exploring more of the Bahamas.  For now, I will celebrate another completed post the way we celebrate the end of another great day in the Bahamas...conch style!

    1. Glad to hear from you, Chuck! We're heading toward the Chesapeake for the summer storm season (the map page shows our current location, in NC right now). Next winter, we hope to return to the Bahamas for a longer stay, and hopefully, to explore further south. It'd be great to see you down there, too!

    1. Thanks, Shawn. We are doing great, we are expecting another good dose of rain from Colin, like we got from Bonnie. Maybe we'll finally get all that salt rinsed off!
