Fowl Cay stop

You can just make out the star pattern on this live Sea Biscuit.  When the owner vacates it leaves a very thin white shell (skeleton) that looks like a sand dollar puffed up.  He went back into the water after the pic.
It finally warmed up enough for a swim


Another beautiful day on Fowl Cay, you can just make out the reef

Mooring Ball, Little Harbour


26 19.606N

Another front was coming so we decided to go to Little Harbour on Sunday.  Pete's Pub was open but his gallery and foundry was not.  During the night we had a very heavy storm and strong winds.  It rained all morning so we never got to the gallery or foundry.  We had to leave to make our next port.

Just outside the foundry
More of his work

Wow, we made it down from the lighthouse!

Did they count these steps when they said it was 101 steps to the top?
