No-see-ums!
Okay, so when you think of a tropical location, what do you think of? Sun, beautiful beaches, hot weather, getting a sun tan? Do you ever think of the bugs?

We had wanted to leave Eleuthera the day after we dropped mom and dad off but in Spanish Wells nothing was open so we spent the day on the boat doing odd jobs like cleaning after a week away and filling the water tanks with slightly salty tasting water.
We made it to Eleuthera after completing an uneventful passage from Bimini via the Berry Islands. After our dreadful Gulf Stream crossing we were worried we wouldn’t make but better weather and a bit more patience paid off and our trip was a success.
They say the most dangerous thing on a boat is a calendar. This is because a calendar can force a sailor to head out to sea when he/she wouldn’t generally go. Thankfully we didn’t have to do that…
Here are more pics from our time in Bimini
