Merry Christmas from Nassau!

We made it! The weather held Sunday and we crossed to Bimini for an overnight and check in with the Bahama government for our “cruising license”. Then an overnight at Chubb key in the Berry Islands and yesterday we made a bumpy ride to Nassau ahead of the incoming weather. The next few days call for 7-9+ foot seas and wind so we will stay put.

Our friends Donna and Paul were flying in to meet us at Georgetown for NYE but at this point we may be here in Nassau for a week or two. Good thing they have a connection at Nassau! Remember the previous post about weather? We respect it.

Nassau is an interesting place. If you want a little bit of Las Vegas you can spend time at Paradise Island. There is also a nature preserve, a pirate’s wax museum (I think we’ll have to check it out just cause it sounds so hokey), and a golf course so we’ll be able to stay busy.

Below is a picture of our newest boat holiday mascot. Rudy will be seeing some of the islands before we put him away until next year. Think he’s big enough?

Rudy is the newest Christmas decoration for the Laa-Dee-Dah.  Unfortunately because of his size we can only put him out when there isn’t much wind.
