Picture is if a menu from a small inn in the Village of New Plymouth. The Village of New Plymouth on Green Turtle Cay is one of the areas settled by Loyalists in 1783. They once grew pineapples on the island but now it is primarily a fishing village. There is also an expanding tourist industry on the island.

Watching The Weather
Peter - Sunny Warm Windy Day
2008/03/31, Green Turtle Cay, Abacos, Bahamas

Picture is the Village of New Plymouth as seen from the harbour

We continue to carefully watch the weather for a window to head out on the ocean. We will have to position in the northern Abacos to be ready when the window opens.

Waiting For Weather
Peter - Sunny Warm Windy Day
2008/03/30, Green Turtle Cay, Abacos, Bahamas

Picture is of the welcome sign in the settlement.

We spent the day hiking on the island and exploring. We are now watching the weather for a safe window for an ocean passage to Florida. The main problem being strong winds over most of the north Atlantic causing huge ocean swells. They take a long time to die down.

Update: Elbow Cay Light Pictures are now posted in the gallery. Link on the right.
