As we sit getting ready for dinner before heading ashore to the beach and the small fishing harbor complete with bar/restaurant and live music; we watch the M/V Titus, this is the second time we've seen here, taking on her load of fresh water (4MMG) for Nassau. She'll be back within 24 hours. Andros Island is one of the exceptions in the Bahamas as it has its own fresh water supply from inland lakes, these lakes are being harvested for other islands. The welcome has been great from long term cruiser/residents as well as from the Bahamians, last night we were treated to Crab and Duplings ala Monroe, a locale fisherman. Tonight we shall have a taste of the Bahamian music nightlife, all within a few hundred yards of our back porch.
Tomorrow, Monday, we shall take the circus bikes and head the few miles to Nicholl's Town a settlement of some 600 people and the seat of local government. These excursions are very tiring to plan so as usual we will turn in sometime around sunset; OOPS, forgot about the music tonight, guess we'll have to sleep in tomorrow morning hope no one misses us.
We'll this is our first SSB update, that's the HITECH usage of radio waves, so we hope this comes across ok. We hope to do a spread, ala Homes & Gardens in the near future to welcome everyone into our new abode, until then Keep Smiling and Keep 'Em Guessing.
Adios
