Yahoooo

We made it into Bimini, the closest Bahamian island to Florida. The kids were totally shocked when they asked how many nights would we be out and the answer was zero. Forty-five miles and into the Marina before dark. We zipped along at 7-8 knots with waves crashing over the bow and plenty of green crew, but no one remembers all that when they are celebrating. We arrived around 4pm, all salty and sweaty. The cockpit enclosure not only protects us from the weather but also boils us when its hot out.

 

Topaz jumped in and then we were all about to jump into the crystal clear water when the dock master fished us out because of sharks. GOOD GRIEF Charlie Brown, what’s up with that. I guess the fishing boats cleaning their catch attract resident sharks. While all that was happening, Roy had a “fish on” here at the dock. This huge silver thing jumped out of the water, I’m pretty sure it was a tarpon. Unfortunately, he was using a light rod and needed a wire leader line for teeth, but the thrill had him psyched the rest of the day.

Eric ran off to check us in with customs and immigration, then the crew was free to jump ship. Topaz the kids and I walked down a block and over a block to the beach on the west side of the island. The 80 degree crystal clear waves on the white sand beach made all the headaches, barfing, freezing cold night watches and chasing mold around the boat worth while. We only had a half hour or so before it was too dark to be out, but the beach was a great finish to the day.

There is also a possibility to provide generic tadalafil holiatry. This results in a long lasting erection. tadalafil 100mg is available in 3 doses i.e. 100 mg, 50 mg and 5 mg.
After everyone cleaned up and we got the boat rinsed off, we sat around an empty palapa tiki bar and ate hot ham sandwiches from one of our Winn Dixie spiral hams and watched “Castle” our new favorite detective drama show. The marina has great WiFi so tomorrow I’ll post some photos.

We’ll have to wait around until Monday so we can get our Bahamian communications card straightened out for continued hotspot wifi over the next few months.
