Bimini
Bimini displayed all of her best on our final day with her. A cloudless blue sky, warmer temperature, and a lighter breeze came together to make for a great day. After a morning of chores and a little work, Barry and I walked past my favorite, perfectly-shaped pine tree one more time on our way to the ferry dock. The water at the northern tip of the island was crystal clear. Once we crossed to North Bimini, we first went to the My 3 Daughters food truck to get lunch. We shared a delicious fish wrap and a lobster wrap while watching the boats pass. There was a little wave in the Bahamian flag today, a sign that the wind was finally subsiding. After lunch we walked over to Radio Beach, one of the most picturesque stretches of sand in The Bahamas.
Today's views did not disappoint, although the new addition of the Bimini Cruise Ship Dock kind of spoils the moment. Richard Branson's Virgin Voyages was in for a visit.
After the beach walk, it was time for some liquid refreshment while sitting by the Bimini Big Game Club's pool. The supply boat had arrived early in the day, so our last stop was at the grocery to pick up some lettuce to last us for the next week. We got back to Crossroads around 4:00 which was plenty of time to get in another visit to the beach as the high tide rolled in.
We returned to the pool deck as the sun sank low, the sky yellowed, and shadows became long. I chatted with Sarah and Bruce from Latidoods, who we had spent time with in Great Harbor on our last trip, as the sun dropped below the horizon. It was a great ending to a picture-perfect day. We will leave in the morning for points south, going as far as we either can or want to before stopping.
