Great Guana Cay, Abacos, Bahamas

 We were up at sunrise and pulled out of the marina before any winds picked up.

Out the channel - a lovely day but we only had a little over 3 miles to go so we didn't raise the sails....

I'd been chatting with our friend Reid who happened to be down this week for a "boys week" at their house on Great Guana Cay.  So we anchored right in front of their house - they were out  fishing when we got there  

So we did a load of laundry and had the water maker running for the morning.  Reid and his crew stopped by around noon.  Unfortunately they didn't catch any fish....

 

We made plans to go over to their house in the evening to visit and a cookout.

 

I got busy prepping some tuna sushi and thawed some Mahi to share.

 

Late in the afternoon we took the dinghy over and tied up at their dock.  The view back to Sojourn in the middle of the photo.

 

Fun conversations, nice fellows Rick enjoying what I believe is his first Bahamas trip. 


Robert, Dan and Rick.

Tim and Reid chatting with Duane.  We were there when Tim proposed to his then-girlfriend at the sandbar on Scotland Cay several years ago!

Beautiful beach house.  Just charming.

 

 

 

And then we were treated to a lovely sunset.


Late in the evening they fired up the grill.

 

Robert, Reid's partner in the house, mans the grill.


We ate good food and chatted until well after cruiser's midnight.  Back to the boat for a peaceful sleep.
