Much like a child at Christmas, everyone was up out of the bed at 5:30 this morning. The high tide of 6:19 a.m. will help our exit out of the channel. We were able to have a pizza party with Ed and Mari-Etta and bid our farewell. They have been busy with house and boat READ MORE

Oh Yeah!
We are on our way! Well we will leave Tavernier tomorrow morning and then cross to Bimini on Saturday. After another grueling wait outside the “walk in” clinic and then the swab test of the sinus cavity, we are cleared to go. Once we had our results all we needed to do was upload them READ MORE
De’ja Vu
We have honored the quarantine and are about ready to break loose but once again we are at the mercy of the testing sites. Unfortunately (I am not sure I have mentioned this before) there are no home test kits to be found anywhere in the area. Heck even Amazon says it will not have READ MORE

Another post about logistics that need to be considered when traveling. Yes…..the boys! They are adorable and have such different personalities.

While it is available in the Bahamas, it is actually shipped in with a hefty freight READ MORE

The Room With A View
We are heading to Heart Harbor….aka Tavernier. We pulled the anchor up early and pictured in our minds the number of boats that must be prepping to go to Bimini in the Bahamas this morning as this is a usual jumping off point for a lot of folks. We turn south and head a little READ MORE
