Warderick Wells - Day 4
Monday, April 24, 2017
The heavy
rain we experienced washed all the salt off the boat. Carla took this opportunity to wax and polish
Foreign Affair. A fair number of people were doing their
laundry using the fresh water they caught in their dinghies during the rain
storm. Everyone was in a good mood since
the sun was shining and we were able to get out of the confines of our boats. Boat chores done, we headed off to snorkel in
a spot called “The Coral Garden” due to the large number and variety of coral
that are in a small area not far from the Ranger Headquarters.

There were
two other dinghies tied to the small moorings at “The Coral Garden” when we
arrived. Everyone wanted to take advantage
of the slack current at low tide. We
were soon in the water and having a wonderful time exploring this amazing coral
field. The water was gin clear and cool
but not cold. We spent a good hour
drifting and diving to get a good view of the variety of life below us. It was a wonderful experience.
Bill and
Elaine joined us aboard Foreign Affair for
sundowners and dinner. Carla made a tip
steak and new potatoes. Elaine brought
over a lettuce salad and bottle of red wine.
We had a pleasant visit while watching the sun go down before moving to
the main salon for our meal. A few
minutes before 9 PM, Bill announced it was time for him and Elaine to head back
to Triumph as it was getting
late. Bill reminded us, “That 9 PM is
the Cruisers’ Midnight.” We wished them
a good night but we stayed up until 10.
It was a wonderful day in the Bahamas.
