I know it has been a couple of days since we have written, but I was bound and determined to be able to add a slide show of a pics of the "beach day" with John & Lori. Honestly, I have worked on it for hours and FINALLY this morning I think I can do it so here goes......
The day started with us motoring up to Manjack Cay to spend the day. We were really uneasy about anchoring the boat and leaving it because the bottom was sand and ACTM said there was no way our anchor would hold in the sand. Well...he was right. After a couple of tries, John and ACTM took the dinghy out and ACTM dove down and and physically set the anchor so we were good to go! John ferried us all over to the beach. We spent a little time there and then decided to take the 2 mile nature walk over to the ocean side where there was supposed to be a really nice beach. Now....remember....I HATE THE BEACH and the thought of walking 2 miles to it didn't appeal to me at all. But, the vote was 3 to 1 so off we went. The guy that owns Manajack Cay had cut this nature trail over to the other side of the island for the boaters to enjoy and while we were hiking through the woods I was all of the time thinking that this was the Bermuda Triangle! This guy lures people into the woods, slits their throats, and they are never heard from again....sound Bermuda Triangleish????? O.K...maybe I was overreacting but never the less I was looking forward to getting there. The woods finally parted and we walked out onto what was the most beautiful beach I had ever seen! Truly unspoiled....no people, no beer cans, no cigarette butts! To make a long story short...I MAY have to change mind about the beach!!!!
