Voici Jean, le frère à Léopold et Annette, sa soeur prenant une pose pour le photographe.


Annette, la soeur à Léopold, Léopold et Diana, notre belle-soeur sur Rose Island. Nous en avons profités pour se baigner un peu dans cette belle eau chaude et claire.




Here's Léopold with his sister, Annette and sister-in-law, Diana who came to visit us for New Year



Anchored at Rose Island on New Year's Eve.

We spent New Year Eve at Rose Island which is located an hour sailing from Nassau. We were able to watch the numerous Nassau New Year's fireworks from our anchorage. It was quite a show. The Richard's family was with us.

On a célébré la nouvelle année à Rose Island qui se trouve une heure de voile de Nassau. La famille Richard était avec nous.



Amanda and Jim brought a bottle of Champagne, Don Perignon, for us all to enjoy with them to celebrate our arrival to the Bahamas. What a treat!

Nos amis Amanda et Jim ont partagé une bouteille de champagne, Don Perignon, avec nous. Quelle traite!


Anchored in Great Harbour Cay on the second night of our arrival to the Berries. We invited our friends, Jim and Amanda from Adventure Bound and Dave and Dona from Magic for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. You can see Adventure Bound sailing vessel anchored behind us.
We stayed in this anchorage for a week waiting for good weather i.e. wind in the right directions to go to Nassau. We had time to do some great snorkeling with our friends. We ate lobster and conch fritters purchased from the local fisherman. What a deal on lobster tail....8 lobster tails for $10.00US. What a feast we had.
