Still in Marsh Harbor for a few more days. Pat and Judy Sorenson from Colorado are coming for a visit arriving Monday March 4th. The weather has been unusually cool and rainy for the last week. It doesn’t look like Spring is here yet. It sounds like the forecast is for better weather right after Pat and Judy arrive. So, we hope to move around a little while they are here.
Marilyn has managed to get into a daily routine of playing dominos with several other ladies. The guys were even playing for a few days when it was really cool and rainy. I’m not sure what she’s going to do when we leave. We will come back to the marina to drop Pat and Judy off when it’s time for them to return home.
We had lots of fun going to the Marsh Harbor "junkanoo" celebration. This normally happens around Christmas time in conjunction with "boxing day", (see google) but evidently many of the out islands have competitions at various times of the year. Junkanoo is kind of like a band day parade only different. They have a kids day where schools compete and then they have one the next day for the adults.
Right after Pat and Judy leave, we have reservations at the Orchid Bay Marina on Great Guana for 3 nights in conjunction with a concert being put on by “Barefoot Man”. Everyone we’ve talked to says it’s great fun. After that we’re kind of going to go wherever the wind takes us. The southern part of the Abacos have some good spots for snorkeling and anchoring if the wind direction cooperates. Little Harbor is the southern most anchorage on the Sea of Abaco with good protection so we hope to make it there for a short visit.
As hard as I try to be better about blogging, the internet systems seem to have ideas of their own and then I have trouble. I’ll try to report on some of these spots as we get there.
