The Beautiful Exumas

The water got more and more beautiful as we headed to the Exumas. We anchored one night just outside Nassau, then made an early start to Allen's Cay. We spent three nights here, enjoying the clear water. It was even warm enough to swim. Nick donned dive gear and scraped the propeller while I swam around the boat, holding onto a line. There was quite a bit of current there and I would have ended up about 20 miles away before Nick knew I was gone. We spent a little time tooling around in the dinghy, or "Dinky" as we affectionately call him.

There were a bunch of iguanas that lived on the surrounding Cays. Every day a tour boat would come out with a bunch of tourists and feed the iguanas, despite the sign saying, Please Do Not Feed the Iguanas. 

Nick buzzed around in Dinky one morning, chasing a small stringray around for a while. I think I was taking a nap, or maybe reading, so I missed out on the stingray.

Our next stop was the Exuma Land and Sea Park.
