Back in Black Point


We have returned to Black Point after a stop in Georgetown to get some immigration paperwork completed. We needed to get our passports restamped to extend our stay in the Bahamas until June.
Tried to do it the last time we were in Georgetown but learned that being “early” gets you nowhere!

Our second visit to Georgetown was a nice one... found two new anchorages we liked, plus the crowd had lessened a bit. While there, Drew celebrated his #12 birthday with friends from Kwitcherbitchen and Milano Myst. We also were able to give the kids some opportunities to “change classes” which has made recent lessons a bit more fun for all involved.

Here’s a photo album from our recent visit to Rum Cay and return to Georgetown.

The trip back to Black Point was an exciting one. Drew caught 4 really nice fish, but none quite made up for the 1 that got away! A very kind fisherman we met in Rum Cay, Ted, gave Drew a really nice rod & reel on which he managed to snag a 3-4 foot Mahi. We’ll never know the actual size because the fish managed to unhook itself just as Pat was about to gaff it in order to get it into the boat. To say that the boys were devastated by the loss is an understatement, but at least we were able to capture the moment with a couple of photos.
