Cave Cay Marina, Bahamas
25.54.467N
76.16.305W


There appears to be a light at the end of the tunnel!  Today Dale was able to download weather and thinks there is a reprieve on Wednesday, Christmas Day, to get to Georgetown.  The winds die down to 15 kts but more importantly, the seas die down to less than 2 feet.  Thursday also appears to be transit worthy, so hopefully, we’ll be able to make the next big leg.  Until then, its overcast, grey, blowing a “hooley” and looking like rain is on the way--again, but we’re relatively quiet in the marina. 


Dale busied himself carting down 4 more jerry cans of water to top us off (he borrowed a hand cart found next to the maintenance shed).  Also, we wanted to have an idea of how much water we use when we’re being very conservative (about 6 gallons a day).  Of course, that doesn’t include the showers we’ve been using at the marina, so we can go about 2 weeks.  That being said, we decided that we’d try to get the laundry done one more time and fill up one more time before striking out.  Then let’s hope we can either find readily available water in Georgetown or he’s able to repair the watermater in a timely manner. 


I, on the other hand, have found a WiFi connection that has been pretty stable (guess the “Boss” isn’t working today), so have been getting my internet connection fix!  I’ve done e-mails, banking, uploaded blog posts, read blog posts, surfed Pinterest for a bit and even looked up the Holy Ghost (I’m not sure why but I started wondering just exactly who this was and why he/its so important but it is Sunday and it was as close to Church as I was going to get today).  I don’t want to disconnect for fear that I won’t be able to reattach until midnight tomorrow (which seems to be the only time I can get a good connection when the Boss isn’t working.)


Until then . . .
