Norman's Cay to Wardwick Wells

After 10 wonderful days at Norman's Cay, we decided it was time to move to Wardwick Wells, Exuma Land and Sea Park. We found that there were few boats in the mooring field. Again, not many people have crossed over for the states yet, so seems like we have these islands almost all to ourselves.

Pretty Penny in mooring field

We climbed up to Boo Boo Hill to check on the board we left there with our boat's name on it. We found that much of the paint had worn off. I had not brought my paints along with me to fix it - so I will fix it on our way back north in the Spring.

There are few islands with any height to them that provide great vistas, but Wardwick Wells is one of them. The view of the mooring field is just breathtaking. We walked back down and took the dinghy back to the boat for lunch and to change to our swim suits so we could spend the afternoon in our private beach. Well, it is part of the park, it is just that many people do not realize it is there, so we always have it all to ourselves.

This just shows that we have not seen as many boats as we have in the past. We hope it picks up after Christmas.
