1999, our first trip out of North American waters. Awesome. We spent 4 weeks from Marathon Florida to Nassau and back. There is nowhere else in the world that has water as blue as the Bahamas. This was just a taste.

2000, we’ve scored 6 weeks! Those extra 2 weeks allowed us to venture down the Exumas, a series of sand dots southeast of Nassau. We become addicted to the cruising lifestyle.

• Where we went – Bahamas chart
• Bahamian facts and figures
• Bimini
• Nassau
• the Exumas
  • Allans Cay- the wild iguanas
  • Normans Cay - a failed “business” and great cheeseburgers
  • Thunderball – if James Bond can do it, so can Sailorgirl

Pick a sand dot, any sand dot…
