Mike & Sue's visit
We joined Inspiration at Old Bahama Bay, West
End on Grand Bahama island but were stuck there for three days whilst a storm
blew through. We had fun though as spent the time catching up on all the news
from SA moored safely in the harbour.
When the weather cleared we sailed
for Great Sale Cay where we anchored and spent the first night. From there to
Fox Town on Great Abaco, Powell Cay (which was quite beautiful, we were the only
people moored alongside the island, with three lovely beaches, and where we swam,
snorkelled, and walked in the shallow water, spotting barracuda, rays and nursery
shark). From there to Guayano Cay, passing Green Turtle Cay on the way, ending
at Marsh harbour.
The Bahamas are exceptionally beautiful with shallow
aquamarine water, the temperature was about 24 degrees C, and we spent the time
drinking Gumbay Smash (rum drink) and on the small settlements we popped into,
ate the local dishes in shacks on the beaches, with the Bahamian people being
very friendly and open.
A great time was had by all!
