It rained most of the night and so far has rained all day here in Great Guana Cay. We had a quiet morning reading as there is no satellite TV or internet because of the rain. Back to basics I guess. I decided to make a pot of soup on a rainy day so Andy, Patti and I trekked off in the rain anyway.
The first building we entered as we left the resort property was Guana Grocery. Surprisingly, they had a great selection and the prices were better than we had even experienced in Marsh Harbour, a much bigger area.
A quiet day planned and we are still waiting to see if we can cross “The Whale” tomorrow to make it over to Green Turtle Cay. We will probably be there for a few days as the low front is predicted to continue.
We cannot complain about the rain, we have had such fabulous weather since we left. The locals are thrilled as this is how they get their drinking water by collecting it in cisterns. The people we feel badly for are the ones who are here on vacation. It is Spring Break and many people have arrived in the area to enjoy the weather.
The boat, Bayou (125 feet), pulled in the marina this afternoon. Immediately, the owner came over and introduced herself. She is from Bloomfield Hills and recognized the “News” in Good News. Small world, so far from home. Her captain told me about a new “captain’s” term today. ..the three Ds, decide, delegate, disappear. Don’t think I will inform Andy of that concept. Later we were invited on the boat, nice people, Ricky and Jerome Shaw who are now art dealers in Miami.
To cap the end to a near perfect day, the skies began to clear and we were treated to a rare double rainbow.
