Saying goodbye to busy Nassau... Hello Exumas!!!

It looks like the weather is going to cooperate tomorrow and the wind is going to fall out.  We have to say goodbye to Atlantis and hello to the Exumas!!!  Finally.  We've been planning this for over a year as most of you know.  We leave Nassau in the morning for about a 50 mile trek across the banks to Staniel Key.  It is pronounced like the name Daniel, but with a St at the beginning.  We've been calling it all sorts of stuff!  Anyway, we are amazed at how many folks we have met.  We met a couple yesterday from Chicago who are working on a trip of their own... they have 2 children that are younger than Walton and Miller. They emailed us and wished us well. We also met a couple who are sailing to the Georgetown on their 35 ft sailboat Revel.  They gave us cards to print 'boat cards' on and left a chip with the templates on it with one of the other boats in the marina for us.  Unbelievable kindness...  They have 2 little dogs... reminded us of all our pets at home... Joni thanks for taking care of them!!  The pictures on the blog have been kinda random as you guys have seen, but I promise to get better organized when we get set in Georgetown!!!    Neal
