the crossing to the Exumas tomorrow so tomorrow we're ditching this marina
life with its fabulous views of all the posh yachts and toney hotels for
more of the Bahama Banks and island anchorages! Marina life is always
really nice for the first few days (hot showers with unlimited hot water,
walking on land, grocery stores, laundry, restaurants - yipppeee!), but then
after a few days we start to moan about the marina noise and start to spend
more time on the computer rather than 'doing stuff' (although this time it
has been a project!) which tells us it is time to go again. So we'll be
back to HF email after tomorrow.
Today we had lunch at the Green Parrot which overlooks Nassau Harbor and a
sailboat anchorage. Lots of dingy traffic back and forth from the cruisers
anchored out there. As we were biting into our burgers (which were really
good there!), a woman walked past us pointing to the sailboats and said,
"That's my dream, to live like that." It reminded us of four years ago
sitting on the patio at the Castaway Restaurant in Clearwater Beach,
watching the sunset and the sailboats in the harbor. As we toasted the
sunset, we decided, "That's our dream, to live like that." The photo is the
sunset from the deck of our boat in Clearwater Harbor two years later.
