Nassau

After reading the guidebook carefully and because we were worried about a cold front that was looming in the horizon we changed our plans and decided to come to Nassau and travel to the Exumas from here. Everywhere south of Spanish Wells in the Eleutheras was described as not cruiser friendly, either the holding was poor in the anchorage, or it was not protected so we decided after a lot of debating to sail into Nassau. It was a good crossing, the first calm ocean passage of the trip, but we made it just in time with rain pouring in as we sailed into the harbor. Nassau is always interesting, the anchorage is crowded and there is always a lot of traffic so you rock all the time but the weather is more settled today so we'll go across to the Atlantis to look at the aquarium and then tomorrow we head to the Exumas. My other computer died so I am here trying to get organized with this one, no more slide shows for the time being.
