En Route to White Cay, Bahamas
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We had arrived in to Nassau from the south east, a quite entrance with no traffic, we left through the main channel. As soon as we left the marina at nine, we were in the thick of it
 
 
 
 
 
I was cut across by a huge poser and was passed by a crowded cat crowded with cruise ship adventurers.
 
 
 
 
The mail boat was just backing in to her slip, lots of small commercial traffic waved 'good morning' as we headed for the bridge
 
 
 
 
This is a horrible moment - you know there is plenty of room - but you cannot help holding your breath, or just not looking up. I have to get big, ready for the many bridges in the USA.
 
 
 
 
Past the girls on Prince George Wharf
 
 
 
 
 
Past the lighthouse
 
 
 
 
Passing the small island of Arawak Cay. The bridge to the left can be confused with the main bridge to Paradise Island
 
 
 
 
 
 
Leaving Nassau and finally out to sea for the forty miles to White Cay; where there only three yachts at anchor behind the reef
 
 
 
 
 
The view out to sea from our protected anchorage
 
 
 
 
 
 
ALL IN ALL PLEASED TO BE BACK TO THE REAL BAHAMAS.
