Having the rising sun wake us up Tuesday morning following the stormy weekend was a welcome sight. It was still pretty breezy outside causing us to continue to swing and bounce. We both felt a change in scenery was definitely in order. A month ago pulling up anchor in this wind would have caused much anxiety on my part but my confidence level has risen a notch or two so I was ready to take the helm. We had hoped to anchor at Water Cay, which lies between Marsh and Treasure one more time to finish our beach combing but the wind direction was not going to allow that. The trip over to Treasure was bouncy but not bad because we were taking the waves on the nose. The harbor was calm! Whoo Hoo! There were quite a few boats , all sail, in the harbor but we found a spot quite suitable and settled in. We had two dingy visits while we were getting organized. The couples from Galatia and Tropical Depression who we have met and spent time with on several different occasions stopped by to say hello. They were heading through the Whale in the morning headed back to the states. Dinner at Coco Beach Bar and listening to Stone McEwan play was on our evening agenda. It was a GREAT evening. Our new friend from Portugal and his date showed up at the bar so the four of us had dinner and danced the night away.

Today we stopped at a couple of shops that we wanted to revisit, visited the beach then sat by the marina pool. We met a young couple, Gary and Debbie from the Delaware area by the pool. They were chartering a sailboat with two other couples the next week so we talked about some not to miss stops in the area.

What a full day of activities! We rented bikes in the morning and rode out to the Abaco Ceramic shop where I did a little Christmas shopping. The afternoon was spent burning the beauty of the light blue water, dark blue, cloudless sky and warmth of the sand under us on this beautiful beach to memory. I of course also took a few more photos! Thursday evening is pizza night at the tipsy turtle bar/marina area. The veranda and pool area are busy with activity as the workers cover all the tables with red & white checked table clothes, ready the pizza boxes, and the oven area which is also under the veranda. I'm not sure where all the people come from but this was our second attendance at there isn't an empty table after 6:30 pm. This time our order number was 25. Last time we were 83 so obviously we got up and got ourselves in line to put in our order a little earlier! It is said they sell well over 130 pizzas on pizza night.

The weather forecast called for storms again on Saturday night, Sunday and Monday. We really wanted to stay at Treasure until Sunday but needed to move on if we wanted to see Bakers Bay before the winds picked up again. We pulled anchor and stopped at the fuel dock to feed and water Laughter before heading out. With her fuel and water tanks full again we headed across to Bakers Bay.
Peanut did just fine riding in the basket with Tom
Of course Peanut rode on the kayak with me
One of my better photos!
We used the kayak to provide shade for Peanut
She dug a hole in the sand so you can barely see her in this photo
There she is with sand on her nose from digging
