Part 7: New Providence to Exuma
A day of sailing and exploring in Part 7! ???? After leaving Rose Island we immediately encountered some pretty heavy fog... luckily it cleared off before we got to the shallow part of the banks! The day became very beautiful as we made our way towards Exuma, so beautiful that we decided to drop anchor for an hour to go for a swim and have lunch! After getting back underway, the wind was still calm enough to fly the drone, and before we knew it we were pulling into to Norman's Cay! We explored the island, including the ruins of famous drug lord Carlos Leader's house!!! After such a busy day, we were out early, but stay tuned for more exploring of the Exumas!
