It is bitter sweet writing this final post from Hope Town ( this year). This community on Elbow Cay has a way of getting into your heart. From the great new friends we have made to the numerous acquaintances. Life is quite simple yet plenty or things to keep you busy. We meet one of the local Water color artists named Brigitte from Germany, more connections, Shopping at Vernon'S Grocery, or having a beer at Captain Jacks. W/F is garbage pick up, you take your garbage to the commercial dock and deposit your trash between 8:30 and 9:30.
Every day is the Cruisers Net on VHF channel at 8:15. Weather, ocean pass reports, announcements, and arrival and departures are the main topics. Brigitte has developed a skill at hunting Sea Biscuits! as well. Last night we had Cocktails on our boat with Sum Escape and Classic Cyn. We the took a shuttle to the south of the Cay and had an unbelievable Prime Rib Dinner. The views here are incredible! One Side is the Sea of Abaco and the other is the Atlantic.
Today is or last day here as we are heading to Man Jack Cay for a few days of Anchoring and then to Green Turtle Cay for a week or whenever a weather window to cross back to Florida. For now Brigitte is enjoying the pool and I am blogging, drinking beer in the bar and watching the Masters! Cheers for now.
