Since we arrived in the Bahamas I've
worn flipflops, swimsuits and the “going to shore shorts” but
today I wore shoes and a long sleeve shirt AND socks!! It is only in
the low 60's F (less than 20C) We are at a dock here in Samson Cay
Marina. There is some bad weather here and we know now from
experience book a marina well in advance if you plan to stay in one.
We have so much laundry to do since the boys left (sheets, towels
etc.). So a nice sheltered marina is what we got here at Samson.
This marina is very close to Staniel Cay Marina but more secluded and
no town. The water is .50 cents a gallon and the power is very
expensive ($1.10 kw). We are “plugged in” to the marina but we
are careful as if we are at home or like I say just like our son Ben
after buying his first home, flicking off lights, cutting back the
heat and not running his air conditioner.
We went to the Clubhouse for lunch and
I loved the artwork so much I took pictures of them. I will post a
couple of the shots.
It is always interesting of the
different foliage here, as a beautiful small flower can grow in sand
with such little rain. With all the rain we are having today and the
next few days, I'm hoping even more flowers will be blooming in the
next few days.
