Pigs in Paradise
This morning we took the dink to the nearby beach and photographed the pigs and piglets. Once ashore we went to the Bahama phone company and purchased a Bahama cell phone with $50 worth of minutes on it. It will be our emergency phone and can also be used to call home. We found two other very tiny grocery stores with not much but canned ...

Except the reality was more like hours of meetings in the over air-conditioned ship while looking longingly out the window at the enticing view just out of reach.

Ship AHOY
... drop in and out whenever you wanted to.
Day 2 (22/7/11): We arrived at Nassau around noon. This was the only layover for the cruise (we were scheduled to leave at 5:30am the next morning).

What a trip!

About that time we passed the trawler and one sailboat from Bimini...........really ironic......The three of us stayed at the Nassau Harbor Club. See the Atlantis pics........it is really big. Decided not to go there and just go ahead and make it to the Exumas. No wifi at the Harbor Club , we are at Starbucks getting our blog done.
Looking forward to seeing our family.........Love to all ...
