Wardrick Wells Cay, Pirates Lair

Wardrick Wells, Bahamas 001

12/30/09   Our wind speed the fastest we had was 8.3, go Romeo go,we are sailing with great wind, not far to go, but  still nice to be sailing. Had to go around small Islands and sand bars to get to Emerald Rock mooring ball field. Romeo was ready to move, because the mooring ball was moving around and hitting the boat and the sound to dragging chain against the boat like pirates were down under the boat pulling on it,or it also could be the current.

Not a bad looking tree, but from here on out the Island is covered with it and is also all over the trail, you would think they would keep it off the trail!!!!

This is the only people we ran into on our three  hour hike, no one after these guys.We all talked about fishing and how lucky we are to be in this beautiful country. They are a sailing family  from Canada, they also have two more teenage boys. They invited us for music night on their boat.
