George from Marathon sent us weather reports and of course Rik and I have been on every weather app we have. It is a good day to make the run to the West End with a late start so the seas calm but just do it....
Michel and Pierrette told us good-bye....They are on a Mainship across from us at Las Olas Marina. Pierrette comes over and speaks French to Saddi and they both bring her cookies....she likes that!!!!

Pretty isn't it
Captain goes to Customs, Saddi and I wait because we can not get off the boat until we clear customs. $300 cash, look at boat documentation and the passports and we are good to go. They didn't even look at Saddi's papers....didn't ask us what we had on board....Oh well....Saddi is healthy and has up-to-date papers for the Bahamas.
Customs and Dock Master
Once we cleared Customs Saddi and I went for a walk but forgot the camera. We arrived back at the boat in time for sunset before going to dinner. Cracked Conch for me and Blackened Snapper for the Captain. Sure is nice to be here.
Our first Sunset in the Bahamas
