Bahama Blue Part 2

From Shrouds Cay to Wardrick Wells
We passed this large power trimaran - no life lines.  You can see the size of a person. Pretty futuristic looking.


On to Wardrick Wells.  Last night we saw and spoke with the Park warden and got on a list for a mooring at Wardrick Wells.  We also listened at 9 am to ch 16 to say again we'd be coming in today.  We left at 10:30 am after an early morning snorkel and moored at 3 pm.  A beautiful mooring spot with striped waters.




We immediately saw green turtles, a spotted ray and just one bird.  There are no seagulls in the Bahamas.  We ate a nice pasta and shrimp dinner, watched the spectacular night sky. These pics are all the same sunset.




We listened to Drew's music from his computer and listened to Alisa sing along every word beautifully.  She has an amazing knowledge of music and such a good voice. 

Milky Way through the skies is quite spectacular because there are NO lights or big cities nearby.  Can't capture on my phone camera.

The next morning we took the dinghy to the store and headquarters of the Park on Wardrick Wells.  The store included several displays and I bought a good red Bahama National Trust swim shirt.  I  collect seeds on my trips from different plants and here is the story on one I wondered about, the sea bean off the northern shores of South America.
