Norman's and Shroud Cay 1-19 and 1-20-07
Friday, January 19,2007 - Norman’s Cay
In the morning, we left for Norman’s Cay after fighting the current to retrieve our two anchors. Norman’s Cay is famous for its one-time drug activity but supposedly now has a great restaurant. However, it turned out not to be open. Later we learned it hasn’t been open for two years. So much for our guidebook!
Saturday, January 20, 2007 - Shroud Cay
Norman’s Cay was an extremely rolly anchorage so we were anxious to move on to Shroud Cay the next morning. Shroud Cay turned out to be a lovely anchorage where we explored a long creek extending from the west coast over to the east coast. It was so shallow, thought, that we couldn’t go all the way. Met two interesting couples as we dinghied around. The first were Dave and Laurie, a young couple on vacation from British Columbia. They were sailing a kayak they had sailed up from the Georgetown area, and they were now camping on the beach. Then we met Gideon and Naomi from Israel sailing an Admiral cat, Morning Star. They joined us for cocktails in the evening. They sail six months, then spend six months with their family in Israel
