Goodbye USA - hello Bahamas....

We left the dock about 7AM after a brief thunderstorm.  We spent the majority of time navigating from the inside helm as we were dodging rain and lightening storms that were in our path.


Because we increased our speed, our planned 7 hour trip was only 4.5 hours giving us some needed down time from traveling.  We arrived in Bahamian waters around 11:30AM - where Dan flew the Quarantine Flag upon our arrival.


Once we docked and cleared customs - I hung the Bahamas Courtesy flag showing that we have cleared customers and are ready to cruise the waters.


Vacation has officially started. Sydney was ecstatic to finally be on shore for more than a potty break.  She ran up and down the beach, even rolling in death a couple of times.  She requested to stay here longer, but we are insisting to move on to the next destination.


We have changed our plans because of the weather.  We are headed to Crab Cay/Angelfish point instead of Double Breasted Cay.  The wind is expected to pick up and we didn't want to be so far north on anchor when it happened.  We plan to stay 1-2 nights at this new location on anchor.
