Bimini, Bahamas

We made it!

Today we took the big plunge!

We left Angel Fish Creek at 4:30 AM in the dark.  It was a little scary but with Paul driving and me running the spot light we made it without a problem.  The wind was out of the southeast and the seas were 3-4 feet with the occasional 5-7 foot rollers.  When Paul yelled "Land Ho" I was so relieved.
We made it in about 3:30 PM and are leaving tomorrow for the Bahama Banks then onto Nassau.
The beach is awesome and the kids collected all kinds of conch shells.  North Bimini is very interesting...I definitely feel like I am in a foreign country.  The streets are narrow and full of fast moving cars, golf carts, ATVs and motorcycles.  Look Out!

The water is so unbelievably clear.  Even at 50 feet we could see straight to the bottom.  Samantha and Nicholas loved being able to watch crabs walk, sea urchins and sea stars right off the dock.
