We are still in Staniel Cay and totally relaxing!

This is the lobster tail we enjoyed the other night. Sweet but quite tough done on the BBQ.

I caught up on posting pictures on old blog posts so take a peak.

Me frantically trying to download pictures!


The front of the yacht club.

We visited Thunderball Grotto where the 007 film Thunderball was filmed back in the '60s. It wasn't quite at slack tide so the current was pushing me out of the cave like a piece of driftwood! Jorge was able to get into the cave and said it was wonderful. We then went to a beach, had a bath and back to the boat for a fresh water rinse.

Relaxing on the beach after visiting Thunderball Grotto.

Enjoying the beach outside Thunderball Marina (now closed).

We also visited "Piggy Beach", gave them some scraps and took pictures.

Miss Piggy next to the dinghy.

We also had happy hour on the beach where some longtime cruisers have set up a "happy hour camp" complete with a fire pit, chairs, citronella candles, etc. On the way to the beach, a large nurse shark swam right under the boat as we were getting into the dinghy! Glad I wasn't swimming (although they are supposed to be harmless, just the sight of them makes me nervous.)

We had happy hour with Diana and Gilbert last night (Wednesday). They caught up to us as we had parted ways back in Warderick Wells Cay.

Today we are at the park blogging and catching up on computer stuff with Diana. Gilbert, unfortunately has had back issues the last couple of days and has been laying low.

I hate to admit it, considering the weather back home, but we have had constant +29C weather, blue skies, light breezes and, well, it has just been like paradise down here lately!
