Nearing the End

April 6th, 2019 Saturday.

It has been quit awhile since our last update.  A lot has been happening since leaving Donny’s Marina in Black Sound, Green Turtle Cay.  The majority of our time has been right here in our little spot of heaven at Man Jack Cay.  There are several boaters that spend most of the season here. We are also friends with several of the land owners.  The walking art trail has grown so much this year. Anyone who finds dabrae that has washed up on shore or left behind by people that don’t care. They made great pieces of art and then displayed all along the trail.  This trail is at the SE end of the beach where all the little boats and the pizza oven is. Yes our little beach has a pizza oven, complements of Gille and Reggie for building it. The other trail on this island is up the hill to the NE end of the beach and it will lead you out to the beach on the Atlantic side.  We finally tried our luck at snorkeling for lobster (the last day of the season). Kevin found one but the hole was to deep and he was not able to coxs it out. We did have lobster many times this season. We would snorkel with someone who would get a bunch and share, or someone would just hand us a few tails. You never go hungry out here.  Our broker came for a visit at the later part of March, which was nice. We made only one trip through the Whale Cay passage to visit with the broker and spend a few days in Guana. Kevin got nippered and grabbed in one day and didn’t do much the next. For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about. Nippers and Grabbers are two bars on Guana Cay.  If you buy one of their tumbles you get their frozen drinks free for the first fill up and then at a discount after that. Well lets just say he visited both places in one day and was feeling no pain, until the next. While at Nippers there were probably 100 young spring breakers and lost of bikinis. More skin then bikini, the Captain made sure none of them got hurt.  He kept a watch full eye on all of them. It was funny, I hadn’t seen him smiling that much in a long time. Our time here is all most done and we will be heading home soon. It’s always hard to make that decision to leave. We have met some many people, made some long lasting friends, and eaten a ton of great island food. It’s heart breaking to leave, but we know we will be back again.  For now fair winds and happy sailing my friends.
