An evening and a day well-spent on land, as
we bounce around in Elizabeth Harbour. It’s the Cultural Heritage Festival here
in George Town this weekend – with constant celebrations. Last night included a
“Junkanoo” (musical parade), a great band and delicious Bahamian fare of all
kinds.
Today we took a trip with other cruisers to
see Great Exuma by bus, and had a fabulous lunch with entertainment at Exuma
Point restaurant, part-way. A highlight was a walk to a beach cave which had
been inhabited by a hermit from the US for 25 years, before he became ill and
had to go back to the States. There are some pics below of his cave home, with
cooking pots, etc. still in place.
Tomorrow the wind is settling a bit – so
we’re planning to sail up the island and then back to Sandal’s Emerald Bay
Marina where we might spend a couple of nights. More anon …
