Big goodbye to friends that flew back to Toronto this afternoon. The generator problem was fixed but then weather was not in our favour to travel anywhere. Thank goodness for Palm Cay Resort here with a beach and pool. Better than being stuck in downtown Nassau Harbour. Now that it is a goodbye to friends it is also a goodbye to the Bahamas. We leave early in the morning for Chub Cay, then Bimini and wait patiently for the big crossing of the Gulf Stream. Our bodies are here in Bahamas but our minds are in Ottawa, Canada already, homeward bound. Here is looking back to the last couple of months:
700
Nautical Miles travelled (1,295 km or 805 miles)

Pizzas we ate at the Palm Cay Billfish restaurant
6
Pounds of hamburger was fried up for spaghetti sauce

5
Times Paul drove on the right side of the car on the left side of road here in bustling Nassau! Remember half of the cars here have steering wheel on left or right. Confusing when looking at a guy right beside you.
7

16
Hours Paul was trouble-shooting the generator by phone or text to a mechanic in Nassau
1
Time Shannon fell off the paddleboard trying to get parallel to Time Out to get off.
We have a six hour day travelling tomorrow but it looks good.
