Happy Birthday Tom!

My Little Exuma Tree . . . {{my little tree ~ not a tree from Little Exuma}}

This tree started growing from a seed pod that I brought from Exuma &  put in this container -

maybe it will look like this one day . . .

Be a Star ~

In Exuma!!

Tommy on the Beach in Tar Bay ~ November 2007

Here is Another Place to go and get a Rum Punch and a Hamburger. . .

When you rent your boat and you have already went to Chat n Chill for the Sunday Pig Roast, take your boat to the left of Stocking Island to Hamburger Beach and go to The Sand Bar.   Alvin is avery nice guy and he will take care of you.  I love his rum punches and my family loves his burgers.  You can take a 5 minute walk from his building to the Atlantic side of the Island - and it is so beautiful there.  I find the best sea treasures - there are nice little tide pools in the rocks at low tide and the kids have seen baby lobsters and baby fish {they know the names of them.....I can't remember}   He has other items to eat too - it changes as to what he has on hand and on how busy he has been (some big parties get thrown here I have heard) after one of those - he might be out of some things!  There is a restroom there too (good for us ladies who cannot pee off the boat!)   My boys all like to fish (for hours) so, I get them to drop me off at Alvin's Sand Bar at Hamburger Beach and I hang out - I can get a drink, rest, go walk on the Atlantic side and look for shells and go back to get a rum punch, Beer or a water from Alvin and sit on the pier.  One time he even took me back to Great Exuma with his boat - (they forgot to get me after fishing - actually, we past them as we were gong in and they turned around and we raced - Alvin won!!  LOL)   - This cover on Coastal Living is the pier in front of his place.

The two days I hung out there - it was cloudy - so the water was not this bright of turquoise - even though I know it is when the sun is shining bright.

There is not a web site for this place - the guys at Minns Water Sports can tell you how to get there, but is by the pier that is you go to to hike up to the Salt Marker - to the left of this.

Another Picture from Little Exuma like the one from the Header. . .

This photo looks different - I think the waves were going out and pulling up the sand and in the one above the waves are coming in and it looks more blue.   Interesting. . .

Us!! ~ {in Exuma}

I guess when the kids go back to school, I will get organized and post more photos and info about our past trip to Exuma, The Atlantis and Eleuthra.  I have so much to tell and show.

Weird Starfish at the Atlantis ~

The Boys. . .

Seeing Blue - just blue as far as you can see. . .

~ Pretty ~

I have so much to post about our trip ~ just need to find the time to do it.  I got a bad summer cold on top of everything else.  {blah}   I love this picture that I took while walking around February Point;   I went down a dirt path and found this view looking towards the harbour into town.

Happy 37th Independence Day to The Bahamas today:

My chair on Duck Cay - the guys left me here when they went fishing.  I could see the planes taking off and landing at the airport.  It is busier than you would think.

Images of Exuma:

Still putting away clothes today because yesterday I went through all my new, pretty sea treasures and put them in glass containers and baskets.

We Are Home

Just a quick post - we left Exuma on Saturday and spent 24 hours at the Atlantis with family and then on Sunday afternoon, we flew to Governors Harbour - Eleuthra and spent a few days there.  I need to unpack and get the house straight  today even though I want to go through and edit my photos and blog all about our trip.  Here are a  couple photos from the south side of Great Exuma from last Thursday.  It is really beautiful there.

I will post more soon.

Exuma ~ Day 2 (Around the Villa)

  

The kids snorkeled here last year - there is a ladder so you can get up and down but I am too chicken to snorkel.  My parents should not have let me see Jaws when I was little.  My kids will jump in the water any where and the laugh at the Jaws movies.
