Mayaguana, Bahamas

[N22d21:512, W072d59:092]

We made it in yesterday morning to Mayaguana after a two night, one day passage from Luperon, Dominican Republic. We had a great first night, but the next night was really, really rolly and rough, yuck. For once we were going too fast and had to stay outside the reef cut at Mayaguana for several hours to wait for good sunlight to see the reefs. We were exhausted, Glenn went to bed at 3:00 in the afternoon and didn't get up until 6:30 this morning. I took a nap, then went over for dinner on the boat Delilah, who we had not seen for several months. Dean made his homemade pizza crust and I met several of their new friends.

There is a strange series of colds front hanging out in the Bahamas causing north west winds. We will keep you posted, but we have been told we can not leave here to travel up to Georgetown until this weekend. We have another two night, one day passage to get to Georgetown.

We have many photos from the Dominican Republic as well as a guest blog from Jim and Tammy Fain. We would love to share these with ya'll, however, as Mayaguana is one of the Bahamas' out-islands, internet service is not available here. Once we get to Georgetown we will have a ton of stories and photos to post. Thanks for waiting.

Michele and Glenn
