... cays. Boats with the big twin outboards get stolen, taken to Andros and brought up the multitude of creeks, dismantled and on a boat to the US within hours. Hopefully, no one wants a pokey old sailboat with a leaky dinghy and a temperamental engine! April 26, 2009.....still blowin'. We went to the Park Office to pick up some ice and joined a new PPDG assembled on the front porch. Nothing exciting happening in the ...

... a while and probably really get to know the community. We finally came to a small sign that said Fruit and Vegetable Stand and pointed across the street. We walked up the hill and there was a compound of about three houses particularly well kept. They are similar to the Perriwinkles in NSB only a little larger. We asked the girl getting on her bike whether the fruit & vegetable stand was up here and she pointed to the house behind the one ...

... spring, he pulled the starter rope and engine came to life! Runs like a race horse now and idles OK too. We explored the caves to the north end and the sandbar - particularly the one we spent the night on and then the next afternoon. The beaches are bleached white. The caves hang over the crystal clear water. It is too beautiful. And we are still the only boat in this anchorage. Life is good!

This is a different Nassau - the Nassau of Starbucks, Winn Dixie, KFC, Dominos and Dairy Queen and cruisers passing through to the north or south. Conveniently located to the Nassau Harbor Marina is the shopping center - right across the street. You can get there lickity split or lickity splat depending on whether you remember to look in the correct direction to cross the street. The cars coming up the ...

... Curly Tails. We met up with Rosie from our boat rental source, there, and after buying her a drink she spilled the beans on which boat was actually ours . . . the Cheryl Ann! We slipped on to her after we left the bar but not until the leader of the band let Tom know that he really knows how to dance and has it "ALL TOGETHER." If you've ever seen Tom dance, you would know that this is so true. Day 2. Up and at 'em! The boat is incredible. 4 staterooms and 4 heads with ...

... together and my first cruise. We leave on March 6th and return on March 9th. I will be excited to post new pictures and stories of our great time together. Concluding our travels from the Bahamas....we will quickly be planning our next adventure. I'm thinking roadtrip out west, but we will have to wait and see. :-)

... tonight, so that'll be an interesting task. Tina will do some power packing as I take the girls out to play somewhere. It'll work. We're both looking forward to stepping into our own place again believe it or not. 2 more days of travel and another vacation bites the dust. Here's to not getting pooped on on the plane, and safe safe travels. One more ta go when we return to YK to cap the travelpod off with some do's and don't's! 

... so I'm going to take it easy for the rest of the night. Tomorrow we're going to Norwegian's private island, Great Stirrup Cay. We're going to do some more snorkeling and enjoy relaxing on the beach all day, if the weather is nice. So, that's it for now. We're having trouble with the camera, so I can't get the pictures downloaded right now, but I'll try again later (probably in the morning). Sorry! Love, Becky and Mike

... buffet is always a winner! When it comes to tipping onboard the ship, it is generally suggested that you tip $2.50-$3.00 per day to your cabin steward and waiter, and $1.50-$2.00 per day to your busboy. If you use the services of the wine steward or ask the maitre'd to assist in planning a special event while onboard, it is appropriate to tip them whatever amount you deem appropriate. With the exception of the very upscale ships, the attire while onboard ...
