December 12 – 15, 2012 The next day after our traumatic experience in the current, we hoisted anchor and worked our way into the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park.

December 5 – 6, 2012 The anchorage on the southern side of Rose Island was a great snorkeling spot. There are a bunch of coral heads along the edge of the island, and since this reef is protected for tourism, there are many large fish swimming in and around the coral.

October 23, 2012 In preparation for our haul out at Jarrett Bay, Wil spent a full day running around town, collecting parts for the upcoming work. I spent my day with schooling the kids.
