Northbound

Tomorrow, we turn around, point north and head for home.

We have been in George Town for 3 weeks, the longest time in one spot since we left home at the end of August. We have had some great days with new friends here, enjoyed our time with Greg's parents the last 2 weeks, and had some time to just relax the four of us. Now, we are all looking forward to getting back on the water.

The wind is forecast to be favourable, and so we will take the opportunity that tomorrow should provide to get back onto the Bank. There are many places in the Exumas that we haven't seen yet, and some that we would like to visit again before we go. We are eager to cross paths with old friends who have left before us, and to get ourselves closer to the amenities that our return to 'the continent' will offer. Plentiful fresh water, good food and familiar surroundings ... here we come!

A rough calculation puts us at 2500 miles to home.
Let the countdown begin ....
