Beach Day - Green Turtle Cay

Dan and I spent the morning preparing for the next week - as our plans to be on anchor for the next 4 days have changed because of the direction of the wind.  All of the spots that we pre-selected have southern exposure - which is the same direction as the prevailing winds.

We headed out to find a good location to spend a couple of hours on the beach.  It wasn't too hard to find.


Sydney took a swim...



...then found a cool place underneath my chair to take a quick siesta.  She was so tired that she didn't notice the clump of sand on her nose.


We spent a couple of hours hanging out, then headed to "town" for lunch.  We read on blogs and in some guides that we researched - this "take-away" location is one of the best places to get food on the island.  We found it to be a little shack in the middle of a neighborhood. We had steamed pork with peas and rice and fried fish.  Both were outstanding.  We just went up - ordered - and sat on some benches and talked to some locals for about an hour.


Our day was full and well spent enjoying the local food, a nice sunset and the local band that claims to be the #1 band in the nation (they are the only band on the island).
