Little Exuma

It's hard to summarize our amazing time in Little Exuma, Bahamas. The house, our (what ended up being a private) beach, our traveling companions, and great weather except for one very windy day (and that provided opportunities for boogie boarding and body surfing) - all made for a great trip. It's also the little things - like the boys looking for the landmarks of the drive, making up songs,  and Marshall learning to drive on the "wrong" side of the road. 

Because I want to have it documented, here's a quick synopsis of the first part of our trip - the "land portion." 

Sunday - arrived at Papaya House around 3:30. We enjoyed beach time and cooked burgers.

Monday - gorgeous day hanging at the house and the beach. There was snorkeling, kayaking, digging in the sand, and relaxing with the view of the teal blue ocean. 

Tuesday - WINDY! We hiked down from our house along the coast, we watched Pirates of the Caribbean which was filmed just down the road from our rental, and played lots of rummy cube. We ventured to the other side of the island for dinner to get out of the wind which was a nice outing with great food.

Outdoor dining - D-man was surprised all the seating was outside 

Wednesday - excursion day. Pig beachcomber, starfish hunting, beautiful vistas of the Atlantic, and visiting endangered iguanas. We ate at Shirley's which is in "the fish fry" (shacks similar to food trucks) just outside of the Georgetown at the recommendation the owners of the house we rented.
