Friday, February 25, 2011 Black Point, Great Guana to Warderick Wells

After coffee and garbage disposal we hoisted the main and waved farewell to Jim and Nancy a little after 9am. The sun was shining with wonderful blue skies and we had 10-12 knots of wind from the south helping us to go northward. We were able to contact the park office and get a mooring in the north mooring field. We got #14 in front of the park office (the first one we ever got here actually) and Azaya got #10 (on the other side of the sunken ship this time – last time they had #9).

After we got checked in with Andrew (don’t know where Darcy is) we chatted about routes to take to Spanish Wells with Azaya. We all seem to agree that Spanish Wells is probably the place to go (out side of Florida) for help with their diesel problems. I checked out the wind and waves on Passage Weather and checked email. There were a couple of quick notes from Laura, Steph, Maggie and Pam, then we headed over to Azaya for dinner.

Each time I come here reminds me of how much I really like this place. Wayne asked “more than St. Johns?” and while that is still one of my favorite spots, this one… well there’s nowhere like it that I can think of… Mary made a comment about favorite places. It seems like they’re all places without towns or cities per say – here, Hoffman’s Cay, Musha, Cinnamon Bay, etc… I had never thought about it before. But she’s right. It’s pretty much unpopulated/less stressed areas!

It’s a beautiful night out. It’s not hot. The skies are clear and the stars appear abundantly bright tonight. While it’s dark out, the water is so clear you can see the stingray in the water laying in the sand under the boat. Wow.
