February 1 - 3, 2017 - On Our Way to Man-O-War Cay then Treasure Cay

February 1, 2017

6:30am-  I went to see the sunrise before everyone got up and saw 2 dolphins during that time.

8:00- After I came back, Steve went to pick up ice and bread.  I then made pancakes and bacon for everyone. 

10:00am- Left Hope Town and headed to Man O War.  We stopped for an hour to make water.  Kim managed to take advantage of the situation. 

Steve was showing Don how he fills up the back water tank.

11:45pm- Once we had our water made we headed to Man O War Cay. During the early twentieth century the Commissioner, described Man O War Cay as a small island with many enterprising men.  The same could be said today.

12:30pm- Arrived in Man O War and managed to get a mooring right across the marina.  Bonus because we can pick up free Wi-Fi.

Steve listened to the local carpenter's stories
The Chair cost $950
We walked around town and did a few groceries. 
We met a local carpenter who made chairs.  They cost $950 each.

 


I liked some of the homes with unique style



Unique cemetery plot


Kim and I were amazed to  find wild cotton bush

 


Of course we found another beautiful beach

As we were getting on the dinghy to come back to the boat, we noticed a security lady carrying a box with a police behind her with a gun and ready to shoot anything.  We figured she had the money from the bank and was being escorted on the ferry to a vault somewhere. I didn't get a great shot.

Police going on the ferry with a gun
When we came back to the boat and Steve made us Margaritas and snacks..  Afterwards, while the men slept, I worked on the blog while Kim did her crossword puzzles.
5:30pm- We went back into town for dinner and walked around until 6am since the restaurant wasn't opened until then.  
What a gorgeous sunset looking out from the shore.

So funny to see CIBC sign. 


Don and Kim took us out at Dock & Dine.  It was very good. We all had snapper.

3:00am- Heard the rain during the night bouncing off the hatch. 
7:30am- Kim decided to explore Man-O-War on the kayak while Steve and Don had their breakfast.


February 3, 2017
7:30am- Had breakfast and it is a nice sunny morning
9:30am- High tides so it is time to leave Man O War heading to Treasured Cay
Mimi's enjoying the new seats we bought in Annapolis

10:45am- Don and Steve got excited when there was something at the end of the fishing rod.  Don reeled it in.


It took 2 men to bring in this little Jack.  It doesn't matter...it still counts.


12:00pm-  We all had tuna sandwiches for lunch. ( from the can)
12:45pm- Arrived at Treasure Cay and dropped off Kim and Don so they can settle in their rented condo.

First thing Steve and I did was take a shower.  
Steve then had a nap while I went for a walk on the beach.
3:45pm- I picked up Steve in the dinghy to bring on shore.
5:00pm- Don picked us up in a rented golf cart and brought us for drinks to their rented condo.

What a nice place they rented which is right on the beach.  There is such a gorgeous pool.


















 
We then went out to eat at Coco 's restaurant right on the beach near the marina.  It was fish night.  
Kim and I had Mahi fingers while the men had snapper.

What a nice evening.



9:00pm-  Off to the boat we go while Kim and Don went to their condo.
