We left Nassau and sailed to Rose Island, a great jumping off spot for the Exuma Island chain. From Rose Island headed south across the Yellow Bank and into Allens Cay - our first stop in the Exumas!
At Allens we spent time with the locals - the last of the iguana population indigenous to the Bahamas. They seemed friendly enough, though one had a stare down contest with the Captain. Once we had taken in the action above sea level, we decided to look below and found clusters of beautiful purple coral. Unfortunately, the photos do not do justice.
The Captain and I are quickly adapting to the sun and warm weather. Its been in the 80's each day and we've been keeping ourselves well oiled with SPF 45. Nonetheless, the sun is getting through and we are both beginning to show color - even the Captain who very rarely tans!
One more day of fun here and then we will move on.
The Admiral
