The week started off slow with regatta wrapping up. Bubba took advantage of the water being calm and clear. The zincs on our Yanmar engines were not horribly bad but we wanted to take advantage of conditions we were in.
We enjoyed another outdoor concert on the water.
We played a little Mexican train one evening with John and Tracey.
Our weekend picked up with things to do. We celebrated Debbie’s birthday at the Rusty Anchor. It was a sporty day getting across the channel to February Point where the Rusty Anchor is located but was so worth it! We had an awesome time celebrating Debbie and hanging out with our friends.
The resort Beach Club at February Point is a beautiful spot. I could sit there by the pool all day looking out at the beautiful blue shallow waters.
We caught up with our neighborhood cruisers for an afternoon party on the beach. Our neighborhood is shrinking as some leave to begin the journey back to the US. One of our neighbors was actually leaving to the BVI for the survey and inspection of a Leopard 45 catamaran.
Sunday morning, we went to beach church. After beach church we came back to the boat and did a few projects before heading over to Chat N Chill to see sweet Lil Lois before she and her husband Dominic begin their journey back to the US. Lois has a health journey ahead of her as she will probably begin dialysis when she returns. The dogs also enjoyed being off the boat for a bit.
We wrapped up Sunday with some new table linens and lobsters we bought from a local fisherman when we were in Bimini.
Our time here in George Town is beginning to come to a close as well. We will probably be here for another week and half as we await a weather window to leave. Tracey and John’s daughter Gianna is here this week visiting for Spring Break. We will enjoy this last week and then begin our slow adventure back North making our way to Spanish Wells, Eleuthera and then the Abacos.
While we were several islands away and could not be there to support our friends Shelley and Dwight for their first 10-7 Freedom Retreat down in Staniel Cay. Ten-Seven Retreat is a nonprofit organization that provides all-expense paid retreat to the Bahamas for the spouses and children of fallen Oklahoma police officers. Go to tensevenretreat.org for more details. Dwight and Shelley have a fun time planned with the kids. A big highlight was the Bahamian Police Force taking the kids out for a spin on their boat. Thank you to our friend David for capturing the photos from yesterday and sharing them with us.
