Hope Town

Yesterday was a long one…. I drove an hour to Little Harbour (that’s where I will be living, starting January 2nd).  It was a beautiful day, a bit cool but not a cloud in the sky, and not cool like at home.  My friend Susan and another girl from Chicago and I, hopped on Susan’s boat and heading to Hope Town.  It is ten miles away by boat from Little Harbour.  The swells were massive, when we had the shelter of the Islands it was quite calm but going by the passes, I got soaked.  The waves crashing over the bow and I was sitting in front.

Out 1st stop was Lubber’s Cay, where Susan visited a friend.  Then on to Hope Town.  There is an amazing light house there.  Red and White Striped.  We spent the day walking (at least 5 miles), just checking out the town.  It was beautiful.  Our final destination was “On De Beach”, a little restaurant on the ocean side, where we could watch the surfers… amazing.  Luckily we got a ride back into town, walked a little more, hit the grocery store, then because the weather seemed to be turning, we started back.  I had on full rain gear, fleece and long sleeve shirt…. Soaked once again.  But, no worries!  That is just part of boating… it was awesome!

I hopped in my KIA and drove the 50 miles and made it back before dark to feed Harry and Bruno.  Great Day!  I think I will stay put the next couple of days.
