Born to Cruise "Done Reach"

Born to Cruise "done reach" the Bahamas.

"Done reach" is an old term used by the Bahamian's. On our first cruise, our friends on Beans loaned us the book called "Out Island Doctor" by Evans Cottman. It is the true story of Evans Cottman who served as a doctor for the islands of the Bahamas when no other doctors were available. When Dr. Cottman arrived on an island word would spread that "the doctor done reach". It is a great book, we now own a copy so we can share it with others.

The water is as beautiful as we remember and it is warm!

We will be anchored at Great Sale Cay to rest today, it's been a long night. I will do another update soon to tell you about our crossing.
