In order to get rid of your trash, you must take a 10 minute dinghy ride to the government dock. Now this is not so bad now that I know there is a beach to pull the dinghy up on. (see, the first time we went over there all I could do was climb a concrete wall (the wall, the supply boats tie to...) to get up to the land where the dumpster is) We had not been informed about the beach. Climbing the wall would not have been quite so bad, had I NOT been in a dress. Tim found it humorous, especially since the fright boat had just docked a few hundred feet from us... Gonna hurt him one of these days!

Now, here is a picture of the local market... It has been closed for the last few days, due to New Years... We will have to go into town tomorrow for Diet Cokes and other groceries....
The Market...
The bridge you must go under in order to get into the lake
where the dinghy dock is located...
Once you get to the dinghy dock you can fill your jerry jugs with fresh water. The Exuma Market Place keeps a R/O unit running in order to supply the cruisers with fresh water at no charge, This is awesome because we have paid as much as .50 cents/gal for water along the way...
My Captain, taking care of me and the pups, making sure
we don't run out of water...
The walkway from the street to the dinghy dock...
We were entertained by a couple of dolphin on the way
back to the boat after filling up on water
We might try to go to town tomorrow when the market is open to do some grocery shopping(weather permitting...) We WILL go to town on Wednesday to
meet the propane boat. We ran out of one tank about 3 weeks ago and I am sure our 2nd tank is getting close to being empty.... Tim must be eating
real good. It is amazing how much you love to cook when you don't have to WORK!
