Bimini or Bust.....

We made it to Bimini safely, albeit a bumpy crossing. Winds were more that we would have liked so we ran the intercoastal to Miami and then across. Bimini is only 45 miles from Miami and Captain Morgan's theory is "you can stand anything for 45 miles!" After clearing customs, hosing off the boat, and getting situated we were able to FINALLY sit back and enjoy the feeling of accomplishment of another successful crossing day. We are on South Bimini so we all loaded up on our golf cart and drove down to the ferry and ferried over to North Bimini to look up Sherry for some fresh conch salad and to pound down a few rum drinks. We never found Sherry but Sherry's dad prepared us all a cracked conch appetizer. It was delish! And....we did manage to pound down MORE than a few rum drinks! Our cruising buddies, John and Lori on the Nanita arrived around 8:00 p.m. and were able to join us for a couple of rum drinks as well! We are going to FINALLY get to wet our hooks today! Will have a report later on as to what kind of fresh fish we are dining on! Catch you on the flip flop.....
