back from

There was water; this is the view from the porch:





The dark stuff in the foreground is turtlegrass, frequented by sea turtles that managed to escape photography.

Various aquatic crabs, including the hermit:



and land crabs by the thousand:



and fish:





So, given the fish, how was the fishing?

Slow, for us:







Fugu, anyone?

More seriously, it was a new place that required some scouting out. About the time we were starting to get some ideas, it was time to leave. We had some success:



Out island of the Bahamas- Long Island. It's really amazing where a long day's travel will take you.

Love the Caribbean. I spend a lot of time in Jamaica, but have never been to the Bahamas. Looks like a great trip!

Congrats on your wedding (via Bodio's blog).

The first year of marriage is sort of like an acid trip.
The overwhelming permanence, legality and formality of it takes a bit of getting used to for formerly freewheeling and unentangled people, even if you've been shacking up for quite a while beforehand (which of course is what my wife and I did...)

But it's a lot of fun, too...

Mike-
I've enjoyed your Jamaica posts. I'd been to Belize, but never the Bahamas, either. It was really nice and I look forward to getting back down there.

Chad-
Thanks!

Mike
