Back to Palm Cay Marina, New Providence Island, The Bahamas
On Sunday, January 4, we woke up before dawn so we could get Kosmos ready to go to sea. The moon was so bright that it looked like a spotlight.
It was a colorful dawn.

Keith’s Perspective on the Last Week of 2025/Le point de vue de Keith sur la dernière semaine de 2025
December 27, 2025 – January 2, 2026: This week has been fun. On Saturday, we left and went to an anchorage. Usually it would be super uncomfortable, but since there was no wind, we were fine. I went over to Zimovia and play board games. On Sunday, we moved to a different anchorage. There was this cool place called “Rachel’s Bubble Bath” which was this little pond where waves from the ocean went over some rocks and created lots of bubbles in the pond. It was very fun. In the evening someone had a birthday, so we celebrated it at Zimovia.
Cette semaine éetait amusante. Samedi, nous sommes alléss à un autre ancrage. Normalment ce serait très inconfortable, mais parce qu’il n’y avait pas de vent, c’était ok. Je suis allé à Zimovia pour jouer des jeux des société. Dimanche, nous avons déménagé à un autre ancrage. Il y avait un endroit cool qui s’appelle “Rachel’s Bubble Bath,” c’est une petite mare où les vagues de l’ocean passent par dessus des rochers ce qui fait beaucoup de bulles dans la mare. Dans la soirée, c’était l’anniversaire de quelqu’un, donc on l’a célébré sur Zimovia.
Removing the Retainer from the Toilet on New Year’s Day, Exuma Islands, The Bahamas
Sunrise on Thursday, January 1, 2026
It was a chiily morning – only 66 degrees Farenheit! But it was 45-degrees in Florida and snowing in Baltimore, so it much warmer here in the Exumas than the rest of the US East Coast.
Eric celebrated the New Year by making a French toast breakfast with the coconut bread that we’d bought from Lorraine’s mom. This coconut bread was different than the one we’d gotten in Cat Island. In Cat Island, it was basically white bread with a hint of sweetness and a hint of coconut. Looking at it, you’d never realize it wasn’t plain white bread. Lorraine’s mom’s bread was basically white bread with a swirl of coconut jam in the middle — like a jellyroll cake but with bread instead of cake. The jam was made from tiny pieces of real coconut. Eric and Christi loved it and thought it made phenomenal French toast. Keith wasn’t a coconut fan and said he preferred French toast with regular bread.
After breakfast, Eric did a little gaming to help psych himself up for tackling the toilet. The first step was to clear out the closet. Then he had to disconnect the water pipes from the toilet. The water in the outgoing pipe spilled, which was stinky.
