Sorry my readers but the living is easy here in HopeTown and the time just gets away from you.
Our trip to Lynyard Cay was a washout. The next day it started with rain and then rained off and on all morning. Around 11am we decided to to go to Marsh Harbour for more provisions -- not like we were out but just wanted some more comfort food. That and the tide would be too low to enter HopeTown till tomorrow.
We got what we wanted and what we didn't want while in Marsh Harbour. We went to the Skaggs Wholesale market for some stuff and bought two packages of hot dogs -- didn't notice till back on the boat that they were CHICKEN hot dogs. Neither of has tried them yet. Sorry in Bahamas there is a no return policy on all foods!
Once ba at ck into Hopetown it was just up in the morning -- a fine breakfeast, maybe some chores, lunch,then beach, then happy hour, and dinner and read till bed time. Sounds boring but then the temps are ranging from a high of 76 to a low of 69 -- it is near paradise.
Monday we went to Captn Jacks for Bingo and dinner. Didn't win anything but had a good time and I had the Escargot much to Karen's chagrin.
Finished off my third Key Lime Pie and vowed NO MORE -- see if that holds. It's been 4 days now and I'm shaking a bit.
Got to fly the newest kite I bought two years ago -- a TriStar and it was great. Off the beach you just let go and they fly up up and way with no running necessary. I've flown all but my big 20 foot dragon kite. Maybe this coming week.
We are hunkered down tonight for another cold front to come across but so far no big wind. This should just be a 24 - 30 hour passage so all will be fine for Saturday.
I've upped for another month here in Hopetown but we will still leave off and on for some other experience. Right now we plan to leave Saturday for Man O War cay for the day-night, then on to Great Guana Cay for a day-night and attend the Big Sunday pig Roast there at Nippers, then back to HopeTown for the next cold front passage.
Glass hunting will be done at both beaches.
