Sharks, Stingrays & Dolphins Oh My... 3/05/06

... and we are not talking about our friends either. As we've been in the Bahamas we've seen them all, but more importantly we've had the great pleasure of spending time with friends Rick and Gary and Jean.

Rick, who spends a lot of time in Hope Town, rented a runabout for two days and was the perfect guide for us Abaco newbies. We zipped from island to island around the Hope Town area and covered a lot of territory in those two days. The first day the water was smooth like glass and it was like we were flying over the water. Starfish everywhere and an occasional shark. The coral reefs and the turquoise water were spectacular. The first day we visited Baker's Bay, Paradise Cay, Man-O-War Cay and Guana Cay where we had lunch at Nippers on the ocean. Day two we visited Marsh Harbor, Jean and Lisa did a little shopping and met the guys at the Moorings Marina for drinks. Then more sightseeing around Boat Harbor Marina, in the boat, with a stop for lunch at Cracker Ps in Lubber's Quarters. Then more sightseeing and stopping for drinks at the Abaco Inn. It's great spending time with friends.
