Where have you been?

Romeo and Juliette are at the end of there adventure of the 6 months in the Bahamas. As of Tomorrow we plan to start the trip back to the USA FL. The last month we have spent in a confused state, going back and forth on selling our dream of  navigating the world or just cruising the Bahamas and the Caribbean next year.

Romeo is an emotion yoyo, about selling or keeping the Catamaran (GETLOST) which in all aspects that is what we have done.

Rusty  and Riley on vacation with us in March.

We miss them and wish more people had joined us in the Bahamas!

We have worked hard keeping in contact with Rusty, who is managing our business in Alaska. He has made it pretty easy to be gone.

Romeo feels bored and lost not having responsibilities on a daily basic. Juliette is full of high desires to get back into the real estate market, with forecloses in every State in the Nation. It is hard for her not to be putting offers out on properties she has found on the internet. She has not bought any real estate for five years and is ready to get back in market. Romeo is ready to support her with ambition to find a few more properties in the next few years. Romeo put the boat on Craigslist in South FL. and Sailboat listings .com in Fl. And if it sells, that will be fine and if not we will come back next year in the spring for a shorter trip.

Right now we are at Harbour Island, Bahamas.

GETLOST on her anchor in the Harbour with window cover’s on to keep out the heat. They works great and it is nice for watching show’s and working on the computer.

Juliette investigates properties for sale on Harbour Island.

Juliette ask Romeo if he can build one of these at the CA house.

This was the set up for a wedding party and we notice another one being set up the next day at the Coral Sand Hotel.

Back to the beach for a six mile walk.

At the library there is also a cemetery and at medical clinic. So if you die you don’t have far to go!

All the Marina’s are now full with million dollar fishing yachts.

This is the day the Tuna Tournament started we saw 17 boats go out one after the other, it was legit!

Giant tree’s at the library the best shade in Dunmore Town.

Parked by the dump for a couple of days and got eaten alive, the no see’ms are back around here they call them the biter’s. We have not had any bites staying by Dunmore Town. Thank goodness, when you get that many bites at once you want to crawl out of your skin. Must have had 40 or 50 it was not fun, sell the boat!

We will head thru the Devils Backbone in the morning, then fuel up at Spanish Wells. Then we plan to stop off for the night, at hair cut beach. There we will clean the bottom of the boat.

Walked the beach at Spanish Wells.

Hung out at the park and took a shower.

Our last trip to Spanish Wells to shop.

Crossing the Devils Backbone on flat sea’s!

What should I do?

Now for another hair cut for Romeo.

On 5/19/2010

We will be in Nassau, Bahamas. And have plans to go out for a nice late lunch and a long walk before dark. We should be anchor down by 3:00pm.

I will have a few more details of what we have been doing the last four weeks.

Knowing that this could be the end of our sailing life on GETLOST  has been hard, and it has been ever harder to write instead of just enjoying the time we have left on her.

GETLOST on her anchor at Shroud Cay last December.

Check back in a couple of days, we’ve  got some good fishing stories to tell. We caught a couple of nice ones from our trip from Georgetown to Harbour Island, when we sailed up here a couple of week’s ago. And we hope for a few new ones! CHEERS!
