Island time Mon!

The day we have been waiting for is finally here. We had one last party at Dockside Bar with all our friends at the marina on Tuesday night before we left on Wednesday morning for the first leg of our cruise up the coast to No Name Key, where we will leave for the Bahamas on Friday. There will be four boats following us to the Islands. Sea Pearl, who went with us last year, and three others, Island Girl, Tide's In, and Hallelujah who are going for the first time. Our second leg is over and we arrived at No Name around 14:00 today and we will all put the pointy end East at 07;00 tomorrow. My poles and new outriggers are all ready for that first "fish on" and we are all excited to be heading out tomorrow.
Our first stop will be Bimini Sands, where we will check into the Bahamas and spend our first night, then on to the Berry Island Club on Saturday, where we will be treated to Herbie's famous rum punch and a great Bahamian dinner. Sunday, we will head into Nassau where we will play for three days, then on to the Exumas. We are sooooo excited!

One last party with all our friends at Dockside Bar at our marina in Marathon before several of us leave for the Islands. What a great group of friends!
