Day 58 Great Guana Cay
We discovered that little harbor is not a good anchorage during a blow. We woke up to gray skies, showers, swells coming in from the ocean and wind chopp from being away from a shoreline. So we decided to make our way back north to the more protected anchorages. Once again, Jessica was able to take a nap during the super rolly conditions when we got near the ocean. It was just inside the reef, however, the swells from the recent northeast winds made it sporty. Jessica mentioned that we had skipped great Guana cay, so we made our way there and got a morning ball. We walked around the town a bit and found the restaurants and a pool. We have learned that all the good restaurants have pools so that you will swim and order from the menu. Which we did. The view from the beach restaurant was absolutely spectacular. We have also fallen in love with conch fritters, which we ordered before our dinner. We put the leftovers in the refrigerator on board and Jessica had a dream that we had forgotten to bring them back to the boat from the restaurant. So she got up in the middle of the night and checked the fridge to verify they were there….. she absolutely loves them. We were exhausted and fell asleep at 7:15 which is why we are doing the blog this next morning. Love everyone’s comments, keep them coming. Remember to sign your name. It’s a great way for us to stay connected to our loved ones.
I see where you are, and remember the sign at Nippers. At that point was hell bent on getting to the Exumas. It is a different ball game, easier and very pleasant. Spanish wells and then on the bank. I especially enjoyed Black point. Once moving on from Spanish wells, its so nice inside, with nice wind and no waves- have fun!
ReplyDeletePool time...we are missing that... Chilly here. Sun shining, but air frigid today. Low of 16 by morning. We picked up more fire wood yesterday. Flurries in the air a lot last week. Just wondering, can we get conch meat here?
