Thursday 24 – Friday 25 December– Hawksbill Cay, Exumas Bahamas. 0 miles

We sailed south for a couple of hours to arrive at the northern mooring field at Hawksbill Cay. Hooray, escape from rock and roll for a while. The entrance is a little tricky with only 6’ of water at low tide. We got in all right and hooked one out of 4 mooring balls. Took the dinghy into a beautiful beach and hiked thru to the other side of the uninhabited island. The flotsam and jetsam on the Sound side were crazy.

Dinner was had on Querencia that night and in Irish / Swedish tradition we exchanged Christmas gifts!

Christmas morning we met with Dream Seeker and Silver Heels III on the beach and consumed great home cooked rum cakes and bread wash downed with locally brewed Kaliks.

Christmas dinner was had aboard Dream Seeker and consisted of Ham, Bahamian Mac & Cheese and Swedish mustard herring (Senaps sill).
