Last night in Bimini

Yesterday, we just stayed around the boat. Walked around the whole resort and on the beach. Kathy cooked dinner, shrimp & rice, and homemade baked apples with raisins, walnuts with vanilla ice cream. While we were having coffee, the wind was picking up. Chuck checked out his weather on his GPS. A big storm was coming across from Miami. We all were securing down the boats with extra lines, bumpers. Wayne even had lines going around the Bimini top. We were rocking and rolling, winds gusting up to 50. Chuck's jib sail got caught up in the wind and ripped.

Today was a windy day, with a little sun. Wayne and I took the water taxi over to the North end of Bimini. We visited our friends on Passages. Seeing when they plan to leave, check the weather, etc. Chuck & Kathy stayed on their boat. Afterwards, we walked some more and took more pictures.

The Dolphin House is a museum, but it was closed.

Alice Town stores

School of All Ages Art Center

As you can see the ocean was really ruff today.

After we return from are walk in North Bimini, Wayne helped Chuck take down his jib sail. We laid it out in a grassy area and rolled it up. It looks like the sun protection piece ripped about 10 ft off. But,the line needs to be sewn back in. Now we are looking for a sail repair shop.

 

Sunset tonight

Tonight the Bimini Sands other marina, 2 miles away, was having a Valentine's special. They have a shuttle to take you down and back. We had a wonderful dinner. Us gals even received a rose. 

Weather permitting, we are leaving Bimini with 2 other boat, Passages, and N-Joy. Heading towards the Berry Islands.  So, I won't have a signal to blog or skype anyone. I will be in touch as soon as I do have WiFi.  So don't worry.
