Mangoes Marina 26◦32'.801N 077◦03'.149W

For those of you who follow us on google earth, you will notice that we did not go too far today. A whole 0.8 miles! We have been at anchor waiting for a spot in a marina so we could fill up our water tanks and clean the boat. We finally made it in today. Mangoes Marina is a lovely little place and it's walking distance to a few restaurants, grocery stores and bars.
Jim and I spent the morning cleaning up the boat; inside and out in anticipation of my sister Liane and her husband Bob's arrival tomorrow. In the afternoon we took in a little sun at the pool. I rested in the Hammock for a few minutes (long enough for Jim to take the picture) and Jim lazed around near the pool for a very short time. The water in the pool was only 65◦F so a little too cold for us southerners.

Later in the afternoon we were invited to docktails on Michel and Carole' boat. They are fellow Canadians who we met on our first day here. They invited us to join them tonight for cocktails and then we made our way to Snappa's for dinner and some Super bowl Sunday atmosphere. 

 
We had a lovely time with them and promise to seek them out when we hit Montreal this coming summer. Carole is the author of a French book titled " The great loop avec Emotion" The book is a story of their great loop adventure which they took in 2009/2010. They fell in love with Bahamas and have been coming here to winter every year since then. I can certainly see why!
Tomorrow my sister and brother in law should be here around noon. Jim and I are both very excited about their upcoming visit. They will be with us for a week. Hopefully the weather is nice and allows us to give them the grand tour of these wonderful islands around the sea of Abacos.

Good night

PS Thanks Louisa. Please let me know what my bella had to say about her sexy picture!
