On our Way to the Bahamas!

Both photos are from Boca Chita Key, Biscayne National Park, Florida


Freedom's Turn left Key Largo on Tuesday, February 10 and spent the night here in the photo above. We were working our way up through Miami on the ICW to Ft. Lauderdale where we are currently spending two nights at Cooley's Landing City Marina with the boat Kismet and then jump over tomorrow, on Friday the 13th, to the West End of the Bahamas! We leave at 6 a.m. and we will travel 70 miles to the West End of the Grand Bahama Island at about 8 knots. That is where we will report to Customs and spend the first night or two. Weather looks great.


Back to the main photo at the top. The boat that is crossing over to the Bahamas with us, Kismet, is in front of us. The boat behind us is a very nice couple from Ft Lauderdale that we just had met. They are not going with us.


The lighthouse photo and the night photo of the bathrooms on the island are also at Boca Chita Key.
We will be staying at least one month at Speas Spray Marina on Elbow Key in the Abacos, Bahamas. We will not have phone service until we get back to the U.S. around the first of April. We will have limited internet so if you email us, just know it may be one or even two weeks until we get back to you. We would still love to read your emails to find out what is going on with you.


We will try and do a blog or two at some point.




We are good to go and so we shall....




Take care, all of you!
