Marilou and I flew down to check on the boat and had hoped to cruise around for a bit. The weather had other ideas however and the wind was howling for the better part of 6 days. All the harbors were full and everyone was pretty much hunkered down for the duration. So, like the old saying we decided to take the lemons dealt to us and make them into lemonade. Fortunately, Marsh Harbor is centrally located and we had had the option of taking the local ferries to most of the places we were planning on visiting anyway.
Our fist day trip was to Hope Town, a very popular destination that's famous for its iconic red and white lighthouse, one of only three hand-wound, kerosene-burning lighthouses left in the world.
Here's a few pics of the other interesting spots we visited about Hope Town...

| Best seat on the island - note the range markers for the entrance channel to the harbor. |
Next stop - Great Guana Cay!
