Breakfast this morning was a lovely piece of Coconut Bread from Blackpoint and fruit. The order of the day was a golf car ride around the island.

Just off the dingy dock we rented a cart and rode around looking at houses, etc.

We drove across a bridge to Russell Island and had lunch at the Sandbar Restaurant. Just when I didn’t think last nights view could get better they took me to this place. It was my favorite kind of outdoor place to eat. I had a chicken burrito bowl and Diet Coke while looking out on the gorgeous water.

We got some provisions at the grocery and I got a few souvenirs because Anita said she didn’t know how many opportunities we would have. I tried the Bahamas Goombay Punch and that was quite enough. It is a pretty sweet fruit punch.

Back on the boat we move over to Egg Island, about an hour. The goal was to be close to a sandbar where you can stand amongst the rays. We had difficulty getting the anchor to hold so we all felt better sailing back to Royal Island. I did a swim to check the anchor their and saw a ray so checked that box 😊
Steaks were for dinner.
