Nassau









Paradise Island













Well we are still here in Nassau, for 10 days
now. We are anchored just in front of Paradise Island (Atlantis) until our friend Stephanie arrives on Monday.




We are experiencing the local flavor, eating where the locals eat and taking the buses.

We had dinner with friends
last night on "Whisper". They headed
south to the Exumas (Allen's Cay), with about 4 other boats that were anchored here in
the harbor. We plan on catching up with them in Staniel Cay.

Today it's about 85, sunny and the wind is blowing about 10 mph.... We've been on the
boat all morning, making water and just catching up on chores.

One other reason we've stuck around today, there is boat anchored right in front of us
that has some rope wrapped around his propeller. He has hired a diver to go down
and free it. Yesterday Preston helped them
move their boat because they were dragging
anchor and got very close to us...


We drove our dinghy over to Atlantis and admired the large yachts. It's a whole different
world there...... where the super rich hang out. We walked around the resort and went to the aquarium. Today is Saturday are we are heading to the beach for the day, there is no wind and it's going to be humid and about 86.
