After that horrible day we got up after sleeping late and getting a little rest. Our friend Captain David and hIs wife also got up reviewed their damage to the boat and we sailed over to an island called Spanish Wells. We anchored in a protective cove and just sat back for a while and rested. Believe me after that ride you need days to recuperate. That evening we went over to the island to a little restaurant called The Generation Gap. You walk in and right away notice the hand painted fish on the walls the plastic chairs and tables and an old time cafe feel. The waitress was very nice as she took our orders. Cheeseburgers in paradise that is what we had. You have to eat a lot of fresh seafood out here and we miss the old burger every once in a while. The town is very neat and clean with trash barrels every 50 feet almost. It is a fishing village with (from what i hear) the best fisherman in the aCaribbean. It is really clean here. Headed back to the dinghy we have to climb a ladder off the water wall. The tide was down so we had to climb down into the dinghy which was almost on ground by now. We made it in safely with some fancy maneuvering and headed back out to the boats which were only about 100 feet away from the main street. The water goes up to a wall that you climb up and BOOM your on a main street. Gotta watch the traffic because it is all opposite of the US over here. But most of it is golf carts and small cars. Tomorrow Steve and I will tour the town while i friends visit with their other friends here on the island. After that we are going to go to Harbor Island by way of the Devils Backbone. It is a very dangerous passage due the coral heads and the waves shoving you into them.
CAPTAINS LOG: Having to use a Bahamian anchor procedure here where you put out two anchors parallel to each other to prevent swinging and safety in case one anchor slips.
