The Bahamas Revisited...

It was beautiful arriving back in the crystal "bombay sapphire" clear water of the Bahamas.

The sunsets continue to be beautiful…

This outdoor chirstmas tree was at Spanish Wells,

We met a local man while taking photos of the Christmas lights, who took us down some back streets to the most wonderful light display in the tiny town of Spanish Wells…

We arrived into the Abacos and made our way down to Hopetoun.

Christmas day was a lovely day together, enjoying champagne and a very long lunch.

We met a lovely couple, John and Terri from Canada, 

who we enjoyed time with both on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day.

We went to the "famous" Sunday Pork Roast at Nippers at Fishers Bay

We slowly made our way down the Abacos, arriving at Royal Island Eleuthera 

where we said goodbye to 2014 and hello 2015

On 10th January, Michael arrived at Staniel Cay from Miami, joining us on Our Rose and flying out from George Town on the 22nd

(unfortunately Rebecca couldn't make this trip)…

We visited the swimming pigs at Staniel Cay…

We enjoyed lots of snorkelling,

at Marine Parks…

and also at Statues…

Michael playing the underwater piano with mermaid at hand

and Plane Wrecks…

Lots of Food and Wine (think our livers are having a huge workout!)

S/V Kairos also joined us during this time from Staniel Cay to Georgetown…

we caught up with Teresa and Brett, and also Annie and Daryl from No Rehearsal for a fire and Marshmellows at the beach (and the odd glass of wine or two)...

These blow-holes were amazing…

So you think Michael is fit (or what)???

It was lovely having Michael join us and look forward to our next visit!

We are now heading down through the Ragged Islands to Cuba and our internet will not be accessible, so the next update will be some time... until then lots of love to all our friends and family
