Green Turtle Cay

After spending a few nights at Treasure Cay we went through Whale Cay Passage. It was a great passage even though the surf was breaking on land. We anchored out of Black Sound until the tide was rising then instead of getting a mooring we stayed at Leeward Yacht Club for a week. We met up with our new friends, Dennis & Claire, from Cinnamon Girl and had a great week. Several other boats we have met in our travels were also there which made it nice to get together before we all departed to head to the states. Everyone's departure was different and we head out at "zero dark thirty" tomorrow. "Truancy" saw us leave Treasure Cay very early and he is the one who coined our departure times! While in Green Turtle we experienced a Waterspout/tornado that came very close to the marina we were at and turned at the last minute. Tom said hurry up get below, but get the camera! Lol! We also toured more of the settlement and went to the Island Heritage Festival both days. The second day they had a Junkanoo which we had never seen and was a lot of fun. They had Bahamian Island music and local food which we liked sampling. The weather has been perfect and we have all spent a lot of time at the pool. It will be hard to leave this mon!
