Today was the first day we have stepped off the boat since leaving New Bight, Cat Island four days ago. Normally I would be climbing the walls after staying on the boat more than three days, but since we have been moving every day it hasn’t been so bad. Yesterday we moved from Poison Point to the W side of the Rock Sound harbor in order to get protection from W winds. This morning the wind had moved to the N and calmed down so we moved to the E side of the harbor and dinghied to shore. We dropped our trash at the corral provided near their lovely dock. Then we walked to the grocery store in search of fresh fruit. When we last visited Rock Sound in November their main road was under construction. They have since finished the road and it is probably the nicest road we have seen in the Bahamas. They even installed reflectors! Of course there are still no sidewalks so walking along the busy road can be quite an adventure. After shopping we stopped at Louis Delights for lunch. George has been looking forward to their milkshake, but since they were out of milk he had to settle for ice cream after lunch.

Lots of progress on these buildings under construction. We aren’t sure what they are going to be.
Squalls around us made our trip today more challenging than expected.
After we returned to Breeze On we raised the anchor and sailed/motored 20 miles N to Ten Bay. From here we plan to visit Eleuthera Island Farm.
