We left Nassau on Tuesday. We went there because I had to see a Dentist. A tooth ache is more than a little annoying. I did have antibiotics and started them while in Cat Island. It was just an infection which the Dentist confirmed and gave me more good drugs. The dentist was very helpful and had a state of the art office. That's a good thing because I'm a sissy when it comes to the dentist.

Nassau has a population that is around 60% of the entire country. It is essentially a big city, and has traffic, stores of all kinds, produce, fish frys, restaurants, bars, boats, hotels, casinos, and just about anything you'd want. However, when I meet someone in the US that says they've been to the Bahamas and they've only been to Nassau, I tell them they've not been to the real Bahamas. That's like someone who's been to New York and they say they've seen the US. Not so bucko!

Nassau is good for a few things, but not long stays. We waited out a blow there and now we are in the Berry Islands. There's no cell service here so this update only has one picture as I have to use the Sat Phone to get the update out.

Lobsters are out of season, but Nassau Grouper is in. The picture shows two of the four fish I shot while hunting yesterday. The one on the right is a Yellow Grouper and the one on the left is a Nassau Grouper. These fish can easily change colors. They do it for protection, but this is their "playing dead" color. They sure taste good.

We'll be moving around these islands for about 10 days or so. Then on to Lucaya to stage for a crossing to the US. I'm sure we'll have more updates soon. When we get better communications and have more bandwidth, we'll put out more pictures.
