February 6-7, 2009 -- George Town, Great Exuma






Marlene and Carl Bihlmeyer arrived last night as scheduled, and joined us for dinner at Eddie’s Edgewater, with excellent fresh conch and snapper. The wind continued to howl, with a noisy night on the windward side of the dock. We hustled to retrieve email and pick up a few groceries. Mom’s bakery van was on site, so we picked up some fresh Bahamian bread and rolls. With a name like Mom’s it has to be good. Exuma markets provided fresh produce and some staples, and then we were off to anchor in quieter waters.

Across Elizabeth Harbor in the lee of Stocking Island, we found more peaceful waters. The following day, we explored adjacent Sand Dollar Beach and took a long dinghy ride to showcase the large number of boats in the harbor.
