Finally a beautiful day.

We spent 3 nights at the West Lemmon Cays and enjoyed having internet. You have to take your computer into the islands and plug into there system and there are only 3 connections. It seems like there is always people waiting, so you feel hurried, but it still was nice to deal with the backlog of emails and take care of banking stuff. We also spent a couple of evening sharing meals and a lot of laughs with Desdemona. Went snorkeling once with Jeff, but the water was still pretty murky, but we did find one reef that was awesome. The coral was in great shape and I found a couple of lobsters, but they were just too small to shoot.
The veggie boat came into the anchorage just before we left and it was loaded. He had some awesome produce and we bought celery, tomatoes, avacados, oranges, grapefruit, cucumbers, lettuce, potatoes, chicken and most importantly beer and wine. Now we just have to find some rum....
We moved yesterday to a new place and it is beautiful here. Better Days is here and Steve bought a bunch of crabs from the Kuna's so last night Karen and I had a crab feast. It is my favorite food. Karen and I also went snorkeling and saw a green eel that had his mouth open wide with a shrimp crawling around on its nose. We figured it was waiting for it to crawl into its mouth.... We also saw a 6ft nurse shark sleeping on the reef with his head in a hole. And found a hole that had 3 lobsters in it, but again they were too small.
We are planning on going snorkeling with Better Days today and then have a BBQ on the beach this evening.
