Lynyard Cay to Man-O-War

Monday, March 8th we had a fantastic sail from Lynyard Cay to Marsh Harbor.  We had 13-14 knots of wind all day which is the "Goldlilocks" amount for RONDO.  10 knots is too little, 16 is too much, 13 is just right.  We were sailing next to another red boat MERLIN at about the same speed so it was a lot of fun.  We anchored in Marsh Harbor next to BLUE RONDO then went grocery shopping. The grocery store, Maxwells, was a nice treat.  It is similar to a large supermarket in the states.  Shopping with a list and being able to find the things on the list is surprisingly enjoyable.

Tuesday we spent the morning doing laundry in an exotic place which is one of the definitions of cruising.  After lunch we decided it was too nice to sit on the boat in Marsh Harbor so we sailed over to Man-O-War.  The Abacos are a fun place to sail because the islands are close together.  We pulled into the harbor and picked up a mooring next to TAMURE.  The boat on the mooring on the other side of TAMURE was KATHLEEN ANN.  We had not seen Phil since Florida so it was nice to see him and hear about the great time he has been having.
