Another day in Manjack Cay and uninhabited island in the
Abacos. We are planning to stay in the
Abacos for a couple more weeks, we met a couple that was headed back to the
States to get some boat parts etc. so we
asked them to pick up a few items for us as well. So we have ordered a larger anchor and a
stronger battery charger, which both should make our lives easier in so many
ways. We will sleep sounder with a heavier anchor, especially in a storm. And the charger should help us keep
everything charged up better. So what that all means is that we are basically
suck here in the area until they return with our stuff. Which is probably a good thing anyway, since
the weather is not all that great right now.
Well we should say some days are good and sunny and then others are
rainy and overcast. Yesterday we went
snorkeling and it was great. I was a bit
nervous at first but got used to it rather quickly. We saw a Man O Ray bigger than our dinghy,
wow! A baby nurse shark was attached to
it. I have a few pics but let me tell
you, it will not do it justice, it was huge!
We also saw a stingray swimming and a lot of dark blue angel fish. Then we went Standup Paddling around the Cay
and saw turtles and more rays.
Today we stayed on the boat and did some housecleaning since
it was overcast most of the day. Then we
went for a hike to the other side of the island. It rained on our way back but we had brought
raincoats so we were ok with it. Dinner
tonight consisted of black peppered steak with mashed potatoes and corn, not
bad for living on the boat. Last night
was lobster, we are really roughing it around here. Here are a few photos from
our snorkeling trip yesterday and sunset session.
