So it has been a little different for us this year so far. Usually we are in a big hurry to get to George Town, Exumas. But this year we have been gone for about a month and a half and we are still 40 or so miles from G-Town. We have completely missed the “Cruisers’ Regatta” and I guess that’s all right. We will miss seeing some friends and activities, but we will make it for the REAL regatta, (Family Island), coming up in April.
We have spent a lot of time in the Black Point/Staniel Cay area, a little north and a little south etc.. We have really gotten to know the local people and their communities, and it has been really fun!!!!!!! We have made new friends and participated in activities that we normally would have missed. We did the usual SSCA book drop to the school there in Black Point, attended a couple of fund raisers on nearby islands and just have had a wonderful time.
Today we finally made the big move south and went an astonishing 14 miles south. And amazingly within the first hour of diving, had killed two lionfish, caught one LARGE conch, and killed one lobster, the conch are slow, the lobster stupid, and the Lionfish are arrogant, life is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!. We will stay here for a few days then probably move down to George Town. But you never know we may stay here a little longer. The central Bahamas are extremely beautiful, and I have actually been social 
