Around Staniel Cay there are all sorts of different small cays, rocks, and sand bars to explore.
It’s hard to believe that tourists pay hundreds of dollars for a tour to Pig Beach. It’s a madhouse during the day, but in the evening when everyone else has left, it is kind of fun to go over there. By evening the pigs are full and just want to lay down next to you like a dog and get you to scratch their belly.
This little bit of food is considered fully stocked these days. Food is definitely the number one headache for us in the Bahamas, even more so than engines.
Collecting crabs for Crab Zoo on the beach.
It’s an incredibly rare occasion that we find a need for flip-flops. While Ali and I still find ourselves tip-toeing around on the rocks, these two run over them like mountain goats.
What’s in the two-hundred pound box?

Beer?
Probably would have been cheaper to ship in the beer like this, as it is $65 USD for a case on Staniel Cay. Don’t ask me how I know. 😉
Beautiful area. I’m happy you got the tranny back, I wish I was nearby to help install it.
We wish you were too! Thankfully we had friends in the anchorage (poor friends of ours).
Pretty soon you’ll have two engines again. Lowe looks like Super Boy flying over the water… Excellent pictures as usual.
Lowe is our dare-devil, thankfully he always belly-flops and doesn’t dive. 😉
That picture of Lowe diving into that tide pool from the rock is amazing! Glad you’ll be mobile again soon.
I have to second you on that! What a picture!!!
Thanks. Us too.
Yay!!
Bums,
Glad the tranny is back… can’t wait to hear about the install..
the only thing I see missing from your food supply is peanut butter…p-butter, eggs and tortillas to die for.
Really? That sounds like a disgusting combination. Scrambled eggs?
The boy who could fly. 🙂
He is always the first one to jump in – and he knows it! No fear.
You’ve probably already done so, but be sure to check the grease when you reinstall it.
I love the pic of the pig watching the sunset. So cute!!
He was very cute this night – he was laying in the sand and then we moved a little way away from him and sat down, so he got up and came and laid by us again.
Appaently at least one member of the family doesn’t share your utter disgust with eggs, Pat. 🙂
The things you remember! HA! Yes Lowe is our egg eater, plus they are needed for twice weekly banana bread making.
Bananas and tomatoes in the fridge? Just say no (unless the bananas are getting way overripe). Tomatoes never belong in a fridge – kills the flavor, natural sugars, and texture. Hope all goes well with the repair.
We enjoy cold bananas better, and if the kids will eat them – the fridge is where they go. Tomatoes is just the safest place to store them when on the move – I’m not a veg/fruit hammock lover myself. Repair went swimmingly.
food…kids…there in lies the challenge keeping them fed, regardless of your locale…4’2″ stomachs, ha. Go get’m tiger(esses)!
blessings,

ps brilliant shot suspended in air….
Yes, I think we have the same challenges as most parents with a 6 and 8-year-old and keeping them fed but when there are zero choices and hardly a fruit on the islands…it is a struggle. Thankfully our kids adjust well, and eat most of what is put in front of them.
