Friday, January 31 – Saturday, February 6: This week has been fun. On Saturday, more boats shuffled. On Sunday, nothing bad happened to us, but the strong winds caused a few boats to drag.
Cette semaine était amusante. Samedi, plus de bateaux ont bougé. Dimanche, il ne nous est rien arrivé, mais des bateaux ont dérivé parce que le vent était fort.
Thursday, February 5 – In the early morning, Eric moved Kosmos to the anchorage in front of Georgetown (on Great Exuma Island) so they could go to the grocery store. This was the view of the anchorage.
Much to their frustration (but of no surprise), the grocery store was still out of stock on the items that they’d wanted to buy. It reinforced that we’d made the right decision to stock up on groceries in Nassau instead of gambling on being able to find groceries in Georgetown. After the grocery store, they got the dinghy up, raised anchor and did a passage to Thompson Bay on Long Island.
Tuesday, February 3 – The weather forecast for today indicated that it would finally be calm enough to move from the very protected nook in Crab Cay to the main anchorage area in Elizabeth Harbour. He anchored by the Peace and Plenty resort on Stocking Island (which was owned by the same company that owns the Peace and Plenty hotel and restaurant in Georgetown).
When Kosmos arrived, there was lots of space in the anchorage, but as the day progressed, more boats arrived and the anchorage area filled in.
Friday Jan 30 – Eric woke up at 0500 to help coordinate the group re-anchoring. It began, as planned, at 0700. By 0900, the shuffle was mostly done. Everyone agreed to put out 7:1 scope so that all the boats would swing the same. Here was the new positioning on the radar. 65 was where Kosmos was and 66 was where Kosmos moved.

Saturday, January 24 – Friday January 30 — This week has been fun. On Saturday, Dad went diving with Bogumila. Fynn came over to our boat, then Keira came over. All of us and Bogumila went to the beach. We got out our floating platform and played on that.
Cette semaine était amusante. Samedi, papa est allé plonger avec Bogumila. Fynn est venu sur notre bateau, puis Keira aussi. Nous tous et Bogumila sommes allés sur la plage. On a joué sur notre plateforme flottante.
