Boring…

We’ve been anchored off Hope Town for a couple of days. Red Head is too big to try to take her into the crowded harbor. Unfortunately for the crew, it has been too windy to take the dinghy down and go to shore.

It hasn’t been very exciting. Certainly not the fun they had at Great Harbour Cay.

There are hopes for tomorrow. Meanwhile, Dylan thinks it’s the perfect time for a snooze.

April 3 – Dinner at the Beach

“You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.” – Desmond Tutu
One of the most enjoyable evening while we were in Eleuthera was spent at Tippy’s. The restaurant sits on the Atlantic beach just south of Governor’s Harbour.

Meet Hartmut Scholl

As we moved north after our week in Georgetown, we thought a stopover at Lee Stocking Island, the site of the abandoned Marine Research Center, would be interesting since it had been a few years since our last visit. Not much has changed, there are new, larger “No Trespassing- Keep Off” signs that are largely […]
