Day 41 – Exumas!! – 1/11/19

Hi,
It’s been a long few days but we are now at anchor on the northern end of the Exumas off the West side of Allen’s Cay.  We were all happy to get out of Nassau harbour and the marina though the exit from the harbour involves 1.5hrs of motoring through “washing machine” waters….all churned up and confused seas mixed up with the wake from fast motor boats….. =  sick kids!  Emma went down first, then Henry.  It was pretty mixed up waters.  It was a 6hr sail in total…they were doing better the second half and both had naps that helped too.  Everyone happy and HUNGRY for dinner after seeing the Iguana’s on the beach and their first swim.  Jumping off the boat was fun – there was even a stingray to see that was hanging out under the boat.
All ready for a good night sleep.  Anchorage a little “lumpy” (some swell wraps around the top of the island)….but we plan to sail further south tomorrow for better spot.  Happy to be in clear waters.
Let the vacation begin!Tina.
