The best laid plans...

As we entered the banks which were as flat and transparent as I'd ever seen them I pictured myself snorkeling in Thunderball Cave - the last of the season but it was not to be. We came in through Galliot Cay and motored for three hours to Big Major, in Staniel. It was dark when we dropped the hook. The night was perfect but the next morning it started blowing from the North very early and though we waited and waited to see if it clocked by midday we gave up and headed to Sampsom Cay Marina, very expensive and no internet. I was sorely disappointed. But we got rid of trash, bought a couple more gallons of water and added 25 gallons of fuel just in case. And this morning the internet popped up just in time for me buy my ticket to DC and take care of a couple of other things.
We left at 11:30 headed to Hawksbill where we will spend the night and then West Bay (by pass Nassau following Idette's advice) so that we can cross to Miami on Tuesday or Wednesday.
