Internet in the Abacos!

Finally, good internet!

We made the short sail from our anchorage just inside the Abacos to Great Guana Cay, home of the famous Nippers Bar.  Nippers has a Sunday pig roast; something not to be missed by Luke!  With a live band, it was crowded as usual. We did miss the famous "Barefoot Man" concert by one day - sigh - Luke.


The crowd overflowed to Nippers Beach, too.


Our little crowd of 8 had a wonderful time (impossible to get a good picture of 7 people!).


Lots of good food, just enough drink, good music, and plenty of people watching - then we headed back to Latitudes to wait for sundown.  10 of us in the cockpit was full but great.  We made the short walk to the beach at Grabbers Bar.


3 of the guys took their conch horns to herald sundown - Luke was best!

We made the short 7 mile trip to Marsh Harbor Monday morning.  Marsh Harbor has everything - inexpensive marina, internet, laundry (done!), water, diesel, and groceries.  Speaking of such, I have to run.  We need to take our free showers now so we can run off and buy groceries.  This afternoon, we will move to another town, the quaint Hope Town, and do some sight-seeing.
