more on the Bahamas

We are now in Vero Beach, Florida, and I will try to catch up on our time in the Bahamas. Internet was so slow there that pictures would take all day to download a few. Since we wanted to do other things than stare at a computer screen, I finally said, "enough", so here is another Bahamas installment. These pictures are from February when we spent the majority of time in Elbow Cay.


This is the Whale Cut from Green Turtle to Guana Cay. This is my IPAD chart warning us of breakers. We had 4 foot swells the first time through and 2 foot swells on return.

Anchored in Guana Cay. Rumor had it this boat belonged to the owner of the Baltimore Ravens.

Believe it or not but this was country music when we went. 

My sister, Mary and Dale at "On Da Beach". Good grill!

Hopetown was founded by loyalists who left the US after our independence. 



Model of Abaco built boat
Museum pictures. It was Malone's house. Mom and three sons came here to live. They must not have liked the US government declaring independence.
Loyalist flag in museum. You can see Mary and Dale's reflection.

Abaco Inn view on the day we took Mary here.

Ferry to Marsh Harbor. Mary is on this.

Selfie at Captain Jack's. Do you think we eat too much?

You can look down and see beautiful fish without getting wet.
