We left Great Harbour Cay Marina this morning at 6:00 A.M. and had a wonderful cruising day. The waves were small, the wind was nonexistent, and the temperature was around 80 degrees. It doesn't get better than that. We went 74 miles in 8 hours and 43 minutes, arriving at Ocean Reef Resort and Yacht Club near Port Lucaya (Freeport). This harbor has a lot to offer. It has free WIFI, free water, electric (55 cents a kilowatt), a pool, a restaurant, a dive shop, laundry facilities, car and bicycle rentals, and condos they rent out. A couple named Maggie and Jim who also have a 42 foot Jefferson, helped us with our lines upon arrival. They were really nice and told us a little about the marina. They are from Nevada and have been here since December. We are glad to be here. We walked around the facility to figure out where everything is. They have scheduled activities each day and a shuttle that will take you to the grocery. Now, if I can just find ice cream. I am so hungry for ice cream. It's been so long. Who knows, maybe ...........
