Today was our last full day in Marsh Harbour as the winds are predicted to die down a bit and make for a gentle sail down to Little Harbour, the home of Pete’s Pub and Gallery (and nothing else).
We had made plans to ride the Albury Ferry over to Hope Town with folks we’d met on Sunday—Kenyon and Austinique. Winds, however, raged on and we all decided that the 20 minute ride over and back to Hope Town would be very bumpy, so we stayed right there in Marsh Harbour.
Pictured here is the wind in the palm trees and a happy, fat iguana sunning itself on deck.
We should have snapped a picture of the bar tender at Snappa’s where we stopped for lunch and some dominoes. This lady was not at all pleased with the temperatures which had dipped to 60 degrees. She was wrapped in a heavy coat, a knit hat, and a glum look. Pretty funny! In all fairness, most of the bar & grills here are outdoors so the weather really makes a difference. Snappa’s had lowered its canvas and clear vinyl siding; it had fired up some big propane heater; but it was still chilly inside. The floor, as it turns out, was built right over the water, so the cold wind was whipping up through the spaces between the floor boards. Woo hoo!
We’ve enjoyed Marsh Harbour—windy, chilly, and everything!
