Trip to the Dentist

21 January 2020 | George Town, Exumas, Bahamas

Our day though beautiful and bright (for a while) was somewhat clouded by the fact that Greg needed to get someone to fix this implant that is loose in his mouth.

After the morning “cruisers net”, we put in a call to the dentist who in turn asked us to send a video of the tooth as we wiggled it. Seems the dentist is not in George Town and will not be returning until the 31st of the month. Okay so we did exactly as he asked. With Greg holding his mouth as wide as could be and me with the camera, Greg wiggled his tooth.

Wha La......it is not just the crown that is loose, it is the abutment to the implant as well. All of that from our little iPhone video we sent via text to the dentist. Now for the good part. His assistants could fix it here in George Town if it was just a loose “cap” but since it is the abutment, we would have to wait for his return on the 31st.

No kidding this thing is so loose that Greg has been afraid of swallowing it in his sleep so with that thought in mind, the 31st is looking like a long Way’s away. So we asked if he flew into Nassau (home offices of the dental practice) could they work him in. And with that confirmation, we were making airplane reservations and getting this thing taken care of once and for all. So he will fly out Tuesday the 21st at 9:00 and be home by 6:40 in the evening.

All is great as we have another front coming tonight and the winds will be in upper 30 knot range so hopefully Jaxon and I will pick Greg up at the dinghy dock before the winds begin. We anchored in Kidd Cove right outside the Government complex so we would have a short ride to and fro..

So with all the arrangements made it was off to the grocery store where I bought fresh...fresh.....fresh veggies and dairy products. It is so like Christmas when you can come back to the boat and know you have filled your refrigerator with “good” stuff.

All chores are done and Greg and I step back into town for dinner. We WERE dinner at Choppys as the mosquitoes were out after a brief rain shower so we elected to go to Peace and Plenty. But no....they were closed and the little dinette across the way was closing. As we were thinking what we had on the boat (with all the fresh stuff) Greg and I found Shelia’s. It is a small little venue with just Shelia who is cooking and serving it all! And it was AMAZING. Greg had shrimp and I had crack chicken with peas & rice and cinnamon carrots. Everything was delicious and we will support this venue again and again. Greg had shrimp and I had crack chicken with peas & rice and cinnamon carrots.

Back to the boat for Jaxon play time before heading to bed.
