... boats are mostly staying put and generally not on the sandbars. Serena (Terry and George) stopped by our boat on the way to theirs to pick up some books. They are hosting happy hour on their Caliber tonight at 5PM. Goody - something to look forward to! Happy Hour (again!) At 5:00 sharp, with snacks, drinks and ice in hand we proceeded off the back of Spindrift to motor down two boat moorings to Serena. The tide was incoming and ...

... were standing in front of. Then an older woman came out of the first house and led us to the second house up the hill and in what would be a car port ( if you had a car) was a stand with vegetables (tomatoes, green pepper, potatoes and onions and celery from Oviedo). Dave thought her tomatoes looked better than Adderlays so we bought two more tomatoes and a lime. Actually the veggies all came from the same freighter! She also sold home-made ...

April 6, 2009 - Norman Cay Day 2 N24 37.506 W76 48.717 Today is a new day with a new set of challenges and joys. Similar challenges as I would get at home - I could roll off the couch reaching for something.....stub my foot on the way to the bath and slip on my kitchen floor! Roll, stub, slip - just about anywhere - it's all in your perspective. This morning's perspective is a slightly different view from last ...

... out of downtown Nassau reved up their gears climbing the hill in front of the shopping center - no slowing down here! We walked over to Starbucks to use their wifi for one hour for the price of a coffee. It is a very popular place. Went down to Winn Dixie to pick up a few items which was all I could afford for $50. I now know why cruisers spend a lot of time talking about how much toilet paper they can ...

... single cubby and head tucked away. She's big. Bigger than Tom or Greg have ever captained. After our hour orientation about the islands, etc., Tony, with The Moorings, agrees to come out with us for some hands-on orientation of the Cheryl Ann. Ends up that Tony goes all the way with us to the first stop, Great Guana Cay (pronounced "key) and takes the ferry back to Marsh Harbour. He was extremely helpful. So, first stop, Great Guana Cay as we understand that Nippers ...

The first day in Nassau Jody had all day meetings on the ship. Holly and the kids took a long walk to the beach. They also visited Ft. Monigue. The next day all five of us were free to explore Nassau together. We went first to Atlantis, the famous resort on Paradise Island. We caught a cab for a fare of $15US. Atlantis is a massive resort complex with its own man-made lagoon. It also has a private beach, water slide, casino ...

I recently got married in the Bahamas! It was an amazing experience. Our family and friends joined us for a weeklong celebration on the island complete with a BBQ Beach Bonfire, a fish fry, trip to the Lucayan National Park and tons of other activities. The wedding took ...

We spent one week in Nassau back in August. Nassau is a great little city with plenty to see and do. There are casinos, beaches, great restaurants and even some nightlife. We stayed at the Wyndham Crystal Palace Hotel and Casino, a great high-rise hotel on Cable Beach with a far better pool than they have beach access. The resort had a casino which ...

... be quite casual. Feel free to bring that tux or new gown for the "formal" nights, but a dark suit and tie for the men and a "dressy" Sunday dress or pant suit are entirely appropriate for the Captain's Welcome Aboard Cocktail Party and Farewell Dinner. On other evenings, I would suggest, a sport shirt and casual dress or pants outfit, but no shorts. Years ago, before my first cruise, I heard stories from friends of unpleasant evenings spent in the cabin ...
